YOU need to read this thread and get off your high horse. Why can't people debate something without getting all riled up? Geez people. You forgot to mention that German Shepherds attack more people than pitts do. How come their not in the media all the time? Oh yea, they're police dogs too.
Spunbearing,
Never once did I say that a pitt is worthless dog, and I'm sure that the breed performs a variety of useful functions as you have posted. All I'm saying is that it's a bit much to assume every attack is the fault of a bad owner. (is it okay that I have an opinion Pantera, or do I need to check with you first?).
Either way, you boys enjoy your dogs.

So far, I've not seen any links to stories in this thread where the 'pit bull' itself is at fault. If the dog is offlead and roaming, then it's the owner's fault right off the bat, IMO. Second, whoever explained the situation in which the dog attacked the man who made the forward movement (which the dog deemed aggressive) is correct. However, it's the dog's owner's fault that the situation ever happened for letting it run around loose jumping on people. If the dog had been onlead, and the man had made an aggressive action, only then would I place blame on the man who was attacked.
Anyone who owns a dog needs to understand and control the animal. Letting it run loose and then not having to take responsibility when an accident occurs should not be acceptable to any of us.

If you have the stomach look at the pictures ( 6 pages) of what pitbulls in this country are forced to endure by their owners. If you ask me humans are the more dangerous animal.

I was semi-attacked by a pitbull a few years ago. I went to a machine shop to have a throttle body spacer bored, and when I opened the front door to the business two dogs immediately charged me. One was a pitbull that proceeded to take a bite out of my leg. Luckily for me it bit then backed off. But if I had my 3-yr old son with me it could have been tragic.
