German Shepherds can kill. Should we ban those too? I have two GSDs. My groomer loves them. She hates grooming small, yappy dogs with ridiculous bows. The owners have no idea how much she despises those dogs.

Here is a source linked list of a handful of the May 2018 pitbull attacks and killings. There are many more. OP has a right to be concerned for her and her dog's safety.

Death of baby girl on May 30, 2018. The child was killed as she sat in her bouncy seat by family pet pitbulls raised from puppies. Sourced to USA today and local articles:

Any dog can act normal for awhile.


Yea including OP's little ankle biter.


I'll take my chances with the ankle biter; my neighbor's granddaughter probably would, too. She was clawed by an Akita, another large dog that can be extremely aggressive.
And my daughter was bitten by an ankle biter but never had a problem with the pit mix and the Rottweiler mix she grew up with.

And my nephew was mauled by their golden, while we live happily with our akita. Stop this breed hate nonsense.


Goldens are not typically aggressive dogs. Akitas, Chows, and Pitbulls frequently (not always) are.

Clawed? Dogs don’t claw people as an attack move.


The dog jumped on her back, she fell to the ground (she's a slightly built 7 year old), and it bit her arm while clawing her back.

All 3 of those pit bull owners told me their dogs were so gentle and sweet, but they're obviously not.

I wish there was mandatory sterilization of pit bulls. That would solve this problem in a decade or so. Nearly everyone adopting pit bulls could adopt the labs or other dogs that are in the shelters instead. There's plenty of friendly dogs to adopt.


Wow the veiled racism of pitbull hate amazes me.


It's not very veiled usually. There was one mayor who said she wanted to ban pit bulls in order to ban the "types" of people who have pit bulls. Everyone knows what she meant.

OP. If this is a real post and not some trolly way of trying to get the anti-pit people and the normal, non crazy dog people into a fight, may I suggest: Go visit your groomer without your dog one day. In as calm a way as you can, tell her that you know it's not rational but you have a fear of pits. Ask if you can meet her dog without your dog around.

Then just spend a little time with her dog - petting the dog, feeding the dog treats. See how you feel when you don't have such a highly-charged situation - where you aren't dropping your dog off and feeling nervous.

I bet you'll feel fine, and start seeing what the rest of us see - that pits are dogs. And we love dogs.


Pitts kill and maim other dogs on a daily basis.

It is pro dog to be anti pit.


1. You're wrong

2. Learn how to spell, dude

Anyway, you get back to being a nasty racist person - and I am going to go take my dog for a walk


Please take a civil rights course and tour the Holocaust Museum.

Don't ever call dislike of a dog breed racism.

Shelter and rescues that adopt out un sterilized pit bulls should be heavily fined, at least $1000/occurance.


All rescue animals are sterilized. What are you talking about?
I agree. I couldn't have adopted any dog from the shelter without having it neutered.


+1 Of course the dog is spayed or neutered.

Mandatory s/n laws don't work. And breed specific laws are never the answer.
