[quote=Anonymous]Agree that all dogs can bite but there are characteristics of pit bulls that make them more dangerous than the average dog. A study in the 2007 American Journal of Forensic Medicine and Pathology pointed out pit bulls are a particular problem because they usually don’t give warning signs before attacking. “They tend not to make threatening gestures, such as snarling or baring of teeth, prior to attacking and so there may be no warning of impending aggressive behavior,” the study said. “Pit bulls also take multiple bites and have greater jaw pressures than most other dogs, reaching 1,800 pounds per square inch.” They also attack continuously, as compared to other breeds that may just bite once.
