You're going to have to provide a link to a news story or something. The news is full of pit bull attack stories.

For the record, I'd never own one. Not because I'm afraid of them. But because they're uglier than a lard bucket full of armpits.

More people are maimed or killed by their OWN dog than any other animal.

I've owned only pitbulls since I gave up yellow labs...and yes some are very ugly...like the one I have now, but the wife and kids thought she was cute.

But know that I have had pitbulls since before most people had even heard of them...we used to use them for hunting...the one now is just a pet.

Just out of curiosity, what do you hunt for with a pitbull?

small children, elderly, local house cats, and anything generally too slow to move to fast...but SERIOUSLY: we hunt wild boar using pitbulls...or I used to..where I hunt now we don't need dogs, which is good because I don't have to transport dogs, vests, and dog first aid kits!...it is however missed when we get in a situation where we need the dogs to rescue us as that has happened several times.

I believe this is the death the OP is talking about. It seems the loved pits attack, too.

Raise a pit right and its just as loving as any "regular" dog, we've had two over the years who lived long healthy lives and never maimed or killed anyone.

Beauty is in the eye of the beholder, our first pit was a albino with red eyes, he looked like a demon but he was a sissy boy. He'd cry and whimper when it thundered. He lived peacefully along side two cats and a wiener dog, although they were a tenth his size he never harmed them.

Our second pit was a little more hyper, she'd bark and jump at the door but after she sniffed ya she'd go on her merry way.

One thing I noticed with pits is they get antsy if they cant burn some energy, we had both of ours when we lived in our old farm house, they had plenty of room to run around and just be dogs. A family friend ended up adopting our little female when we moved into town, we knew she'd go nuts in a small yard and we wouldn't have as much time to pay her attention, so we left her with a loving friend. She just turned 15 in june, and he says he couldn't ask for a better dog, she's mellowed out big time over the years.


We loved our pits and treated them like the family members they were, over the years we've also had a couple Boxers, Labs, and a beagle. They were all great dogs because we raised them right. Put a well trained big dog next to a little ankle bitting piece of crap and tell me who has the attitude problem.
