It's time we ban pitbulls

[Richard_Cuckold]

Enough is enough. These dogs are way too strong & unpredictable. Plus, they are normally owned by the wrong people. Deadly combo right there.

This latest pitbull attack is absolutely heartbreaking.

A 14-month-old Wisconsin boy has died after a brutal attack by a pair of pit bulls, authorities said on Thursday.
Police received a call from Susan Iwicki, 30, on Wednesday saying that she and the young boy were being attacked by the dogs, according to local NBC affiliate WMTV. Iwicki told police that she and the boy had each sustained injuries.

The boy died of his injuries at a Milwaukee area hospital later on Wednesday, the Walworth County sheriff’s office said, according to The Associated Press.
The boy had the “biggest eyes, great smile,” family friend Valerie Brylow told local affiliate WTMJ. “He was a great little boy.”
“He is adorable, absolutely adorable,” Nicole Jennison, another family friend told the station.
The boy’s name has not been released, and an investigation continues. Both of the pit bulls were removed from the property and euthanized on Wednesday, WMTV reported.
The fatal dog attack was the first in Wisconsin in a decade, according to the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel.

I'm sure other breeds kill human babies just as often.

[mr. tegu]

The mom chose a babysitter where the owner had two pitbulls. In an apartment no less so they can't even go outside. This is sad but the mom isn't exactly the sharpest.

[lcarus]

Ban this, ban that. Ban everything potentially dangerous in the wrong hands! Let's just nerf the whole world. I'm about to go petition my congressman to ban swimming pools. Too many drownings per year. THE CHILDREN!!!



God damn idiots.

[Gravedigger]

This thread seems familiar... haven't we heard this stuff before in another thread?

And to take a phrase from the NRA, getting rid of pit bulls won't solve anything, criminals will get them and law abiding citizens will be without protection from them.

[Bump]

When will we blame the HUMANS who raise these animals?

There are. Actually quite a few that kill more. But the media will put "pitbull" in the title of every story related to a pitbull bite, and ignore the breed on others.

If you guys havent seen the documentary "Beyond the Myth" I recommend it. Super depressing though.

Nice personal attack by the way.

And no I'm all for the 2nd Amendment. I do believe people have a right to defend themselves.

As far as owning pitbulls goes, whats the point? How in the hell are these wild beasts allowed to be pets? How many more fucking kids have to die? Can't people just own a different breed or something? Get a pug or something sheesh.

I don't give a shit about pit bulls. I'd never own one. What I do get sick of is people whose solution to every problem is BAN IT. BAN DOGS. BAN GUNS. BAN CIGARETTES. BAN SOFT DRINKS. BAN FAST FOOD. Enough with this nanny state shit. Shut up and grow a pair.

It's not like these dogs are eating people on a daily basis. Just like psycho killers aren't shooting up schools on a daily basis. STOP LETTING THE MEDIA SCARE THE SHIT OUT OF YOU. These are isolated incidents. People die - sometimes badly and needlessly. That's life.

seriously, my lab has a little bit of pit in here I think...I'm not sure, but the shape of her head, she's obviously a mutt but the paperwork doesn't say exactly what she is. She almost looks like she has a tiny bit of pit in her and she is the sweetest dog you'll ever see. It's all about how they are raised. The humans are to blame for the bad ones, it's fucking bullshit they keep blaming the dogs. Dogs are good people and shit like this pisses me off.

Eat shit and die you spineless bitch. Learn some fucking history first though.

The American Pit Bull Terrier is probably the first true American breed. The US military used to use them on recruiting posters. There are several examples of prominent pit bulls throughout history.

Labs bite more people on a per capita basis than pit bulls do. I don't see you saying ban them though.

The assholes that think pits are street cred are the problem. I wouldn't want one myself, but whatever. I had this friend that had a malamute. They didn't take care of it well at all. The thing got mean to the point where all of our friends were scared to death of the dog. I would go play with him in the garage they kept him in, and after a couple minutes of attention, he calmed the fuck down. It was a case of someone getting a dog that never should have.

Pits are not good dogs for owners who aren't willing to be dominate and enforce pack order. They're also extremely overbred by dipshits who have no idea of what the breed standard is.

These wild animals just attacked out of no where! They smelled blood from a block away and went on the hunt.

Well wait. Actually the victims were in the apartment of the owner, who also happens to be the babysitter. What kind person chooses a babysitter who lives in an apartment with two pitbulls? Any unfamiliar dog for that matter.

People can own alligators. Pitbulls shouldn't be going anywhere either. Not my kind of dog but I'm sure like with any animal they make good pets with proper care.

I'm with Richard on this. I own lots of rental property and I absolutely WILL NOT allow any tenants with pit bulls. I will evict them. They are normally owned by gang bangers and or people that don't have the brains to take care of them properly.

I have raised and bred Rottweillers for years ,used to sell them to soldiers at FT Bragg. I love Rottys but there again they need to be taken care of properly.

Would you let someone babysit your child if they owned a pit bull? Absolutely not.

Would you let someone babysit your child if they owned a dachsund ? Yes,probably.

The dogs were bred to fight , I don't care what anybody says. That's why guess what, when you go to a dog fight what do you think yo'll see, a lab against a border collie. No , fucking pitts. Fuck pit bulls!

It would depend on the age of my child, the owner, and the pit itself. I don't have children and don't have enough arrogance to think I'd know how I'd view this situation if I had a kid.

However, I do think that those 3 factors would be evaluated before saying no to anybody that owns a pit.

[jspchief]

I would avoid having my children around pitbulls. I don't know if they are statistically any more likely to attack than other breeds, but it seems like when they do attack, they do a hell of a lot more damage than the typical dog bite. Maybe it's all just media sensationalism, but when it comes to my children, I err on the side of caution. As for whether the breed is banned, I wouldn't be against it. Not sure it's an issue that would bring me to the polls either way. I've yet to hear an overly compelling argument against a ban other than perhaps the impossibility of actually enforcing it.

Her dogs are well cared for and not bread or trained to fight. I'm into personal responsibility and all and certainly not for banning but there is no way in hell I would have ever left my child as an infint with somone who has a pit.

LOL to those that think they're the same as a lab. If you think all dogs are the same it's just the way they're raised and cared for, I've had black mountain kurs, and a couple blue heelers that would prove you dead wrong.

I love pit bulls...

So does my .45 or my AR-15 Assualt Rifle (if I had one)...

My son and I have eliminated several last year as we live in the country, They show up uninvited to my property... For some reason they never last long.

What a trash dog...

It 'cause of them city fellers. They like to use them for fighting, when they are no longer useful for that they go out in the country and turn them loose if they do not die in a fight.

[Reerun_KC]

I'm sure other breeds kill human babies just as often.

When my kids were little like that, we had Aussies or Boarder Collies...

They used to tackle my little kids and lick them to death... It was so funny watching those dogs herd the kids or pull them across the tile floor by their shirt.

We were in great fear for their lives....

[pr_capone]

We need to ban the gubbment from banning things. Im tired of everything being banned, if this PC shit keeps up we will soon be nothing but bots. Every single one of us. Like the Clones in Star Wars.

I assume that a joke about only banning assault pitbulls has already been made by this point in the thread, but I don't have the wherewithal to read through all seven pages.

[Steron]

I don't give a shit about pit bulls. I'd never own one. What I do get sick of is people whose solution to every problem is BAN IT. BAN DOGS. BAN GUNS. BAN CIGARETTES. BAN SOFT DRINKS. BAN FAST FOOD. Enough with this nanny state shit. Shut up and grow a pair.

It's not like these dogs are eating people on a daily basis. Just like psycho killers aren't shooting up schools on a daily basis. STOP LETTING THE MEDIA SCARE THE SHIT OUT OF YOU. These are isolated incidents. People die - sometimes badly and needlessly. That's life.

I don't think they should be banned. But I hate the type of people that own them.

[InChiefsHeaven]

I would never own one, and I've seen one mess up somebody (my neighbor) for no real discernible reason. She was a reporter for our local paper and was doing a story on a guy who had a pit who was in trouble for biting some dog in their neighborhood. She, my neighbor, went over to the house to do the story. Got pictures of the pit hanging out with the kids, no problems at all. Then she sat in a chair to do the interview, and the damn dog for no reason lunged and bit her face and knocked her out of the chair. The owner was beside himself, and got the dog off of her and out of the room. Needless to say, after that he had to admit that for whatever reason, he couldn't control the dog and had it put down.

I'd say it's a personal choice and a personal risk to own one. I wouldn't say ban them, cuz there are a lot of big dogs that can and do attack people. That's the problem with dogs...you can't ask them how they are feeling or some shit. That's why I own medium sized dogs that I can control in case they go nuts...

There are good dogs and bad dogs. There are good owners and bad owners.
I had a pit mix living at my house, and honestly it was a good dog, but it had bad traits. It wasn't my fault and it wasn't the dogs fault.
As a responsible home owner with two dogs I had to let her go. She was just to protective, which ultimately lead to agression.
It was a tough decision. But she had two episodes with known people stopping at my house. I loved here but christ it is so much more relaxed with her gone.

[Hog's Gone Fishin]

The son of one of my employees that lives on my farm brought home a pit bull mix puppy. I have truck drivers bring in Milo and SBM from out of state and on two instances the dog tried to bite them when they pulled on the scales. Talking bout a law suit waiting to happen.

[mr. tegu]

The whole narrative of the stupid in this thread is basically, "some people can't control pitbulls, so nobody should have one."

People own snakes that are absolutely deadly from one bite. When you have certain animals there is an inherent risk involved. If someone wants to take up that risk, who cares.

[ndws]

So I guess a lot of you are perfectly okay with little kids dying. Right on I guess.

All people who own pits and rots are not douchebags, but it's pretty apparent that the majority of those animals are owned by douchebags.

Pits are the white trash canine of choice just like malt liquor from a can is their drink of choice. That broad is pretty much the prototype of what the world thinks when they hear you say you have a pit.

This.

"Are you a skinny white kid getting no reh-spek? Go down to Wal-Mart and get your free pit now!

Screw lifting weights or taking the time to excel in a sport! It's wasted time! Tie your pit up to the bike stand outside the local grocer and BOOM! INSTANT REH-SPEK!"

I find this story very interesting. I'd love to know the whole background on the dog. I wonder if it was raised by them from puppy-hood. I strongly believe its the people, the owners, that make a dog become what it is. I believe this whole heartedly.

I'm on my second bullmastiff. you can pull up stories on this breed that mirror horrific pit stories. I got both of my bullys as puppies. I've had dogs all my life and have loved every one, but far and away the best two dogs have been the bullys. we raised them with love and taught them correct behavior and most importantly socialized them. this is the single most important thing to do for ANY dog!

my parents neighbors have a pit and she is a sweetheart. her and my bully play when we go visit.

having said all this....I would NEVER EVER bring a dog into my house with the capability to inflict damage that pits and bullys have....unless I brought the dang thing home as a puppy and raised it from the beginning. because people are just stupid. you bring home a 2 year old bully from a shelter....you have NO IDEA what you have. just isn't worth it.

I can't help but think every time I read about an attack.....and I know it sounds presumptuous, but I always wonder if that dog would have done that had I been the one that raised it? know what I mean?

Good for you. A lot of people are reluctant to put down dogs that should be put down.

I had 2 pits. One s the best dog ever. The other started getting neurotic and due to that her behavior was more erractic. She snapped at someone in my house so she was put down. I loved that dog but I know what the breed is supposed to be and aside from her looks she didn't have the rght temperament.

[DJ's left nut]

Eh, I'll want to see the dog before I care about the article.

My chocolate lab got out of the house once and the people down the block called animal control because there was a pit bull in their yard.

He's a !@#$ing chocolate lab.

People see dark fur and a 70+ lb dog and if they don't know much about dogs, it becomes a pit bull. Nevermind the fact that most pits are light in color...by God that dog is bigger than a 3 yr old - IT'S A PIT!

Because people are, y'know, really stupid.

I honestly couldn't care less about breed-specific legislation, to tell you the truth. There are tens of thousands of dogs put down annually because there aren't as many homes as there are great pets. Taking Pits out of the equation leaves plenty of outstanding pets around. And while they aren't necessarily more aggressive as a breed, certain lines certainly are and those lines are diluting the gene pool for the breed in general. And while they're not all aggressive, even the most ardent pit bull supporters will concede that they are universally very mouthy dogs. Every Pit I've known has been a mouther. And with the power in those jaws, sometimes that causes damage even on accident. The room for a simple mistake sure goes away in a hurry with a dog like that.

But I certainly understand the opposition; even the mouthy pits are still sweet dogs.

Well yes... but lying about your kid is a little different. The resulting dangers aren't very comparable. A lying child is still moderately controllable for the most part. The result of those kinds of lies might be a kid pushed in a locker, or a suspension from school. Lying and underestimating what your dog is capable of can and does result in serious harm or death.

I don't have a dog in this fight, so I decided to do a little research and see if pit bulls are more likely to be vicious than other dogs. I found this at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_fatal_dog_attacks_in_the_United_States .

Most dogs are breed for a purpose. Why ban dog breeds because certain individuals can not understand the purpose of their dog? Pit bulls are a very physicaly strong breed intended for fighting, baiting, catching, herding and protecting, they are not meant to be appartment pets.

[Prison Bitch]

Simple really. Owners of dogs should be held criminally liable for any attacks they make on others. Period. If you own a pitbull and it freaks out and kills my toddler, then you should have legal liability. Where that line is drawn and what the penalties are, is up for reasonable debate.


But this notion that dog owners just throw their hands up in the air and say "Nuttin I can do about it, sorry brah!" is nonsense. If a pitbull owner ever had his dog kill my son, I'm putting a bullet in the dog's skull and a bullet in the owner's leg.

Wow,... baby sitter to baby eater.

nothing wrong with Pitts at all. any animal can be turned into a viscious animal.

Got to a Pet Store (not directed to anyone here specfici etc) when they have Pitt Bull adoptions. Some of the sweetest dogs I've ever met.
They get a huge bad rap from the media.

Years ago it was the Rottweiler. Before that, Dobermans.

Investigate for yourself before jumping on board with the media hype/scare tactics.

A women that works for me has two pits. She received a call this week at work that one of them got out of it's kennel during the day when she was at work and killed her kids 9 week old dachsund.
Her dogs are well cared for and not bread or trained to fight. I'm into personal responsibility and all and certainly not for banning but there is no way in hell I would have ever left my child as an infint with somone who has a pit.

LOL to those that think they're the same as a lab. If you think all dogs are the same it's just the way they're raised and cared for, I've had black mountain kurs, and a couple blue heelers that would prove you dead wrong. I would never want an infant child around those dogs without MY supervision.

I had a buddy who had a couple of German Shepherds. They killed his cat. Just ripped it in two.

Yeah, every breed has certain subtle differences in their characteristics. But on the basic, primal level, canines are canines.

If you had 1 chance to guess the breed of dog owned by this person for $1000 dollars, what would be your guess?

[tman]

Good point. I don't believe there is any total proactive solution to solve dog attacks. My use of apartment pets does not relay what I'm trying to say. I do believe that a small dog breed would be less likely to kill someone if it attacked. Pit bulls where breed to be strong attackers ( see en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pit_bull ). Their attended prey would generally be larger than that of a smaller breed. I do not mean the pit bull is more likely to attack. I simply think that the result of a pit bull attack would be more damaging than most dog breeds. If you are going to own a dog of any kind there is always a chance that it could attack someone or something.

How many Dachshunds or terriers killed a small child in.....oh.....the last 200 years?

Dacchsunds have a vicious streak a mile wide. It's the most foul tempered dog you're ever set eyes on. It's a killer.

[Lzen]

Let's ban douchebags then.

Chiefs Planet would be a ghost town.

[KC_Lee]

This obviously proves nothing regarding what breed of dog is more likely to be vicious. But it does appear that one breed of dog does most of the killing.

No what it proves is what breed of dog is being exploited, bred and trained by the lowest rungs of humanity to be vicious.

Let's be honest here for a bit; take a bunch of small dicked jackasses and tell them that owning a pit bull will make them tough and you get bunch of jackasses breeding these dogs to be what these other small dicked jackasses want. So now we have jackasses warping and manipulating a certain breed of dog to sell to other jackasses. This is the problem, not the dog per se but what has happened to the bred over time.

Let's pretend that by some stroke all pit bulls are gone, no longer here. What's next? Do we get a stories of vicious rotties and that this breed must be banned!

[KC_Lee]

What I find interesting in this debate, is the fact that 99.9999999999999999999999% of all dog owners in the history of dog ownership would never ever admit to having a dangerous dog. At least until the dog does something dangerous. It's just astonishing the lengths some people will go to defend their asshole dog. Of course, not all dogs are assholes. But even owners of evil hellhounds straight from Satan's fenced in backyard will defend their dog to the ends of time.

"My dog is the sweetest most lovable cuddly animal in the world. See, it even plays with baby chicks and doesn't instantly devour them!"

It tells me that many people out there are either oblivious or in complete and total denial of what their dog is capable of.
You corner, kick or try to hurt my aussies they will bite at you in attempt to get away from you.

If you are mean to them they will not like you... IF you are sweet to them they will be your best buddy... And one of them has an allergy problem. she will sneeze on you.

[Cheater5]

People are going to believe what they want. I was wary of Pit Bulls too, until my wife insisted we adopt one (I was gone quite a bit). My mind was changed forever. That dog was my animal friend for 12 years, and hands down the best dog I have ever owned and it isnt even close. Highly intelligent, never barked, well behaved, never chewed on anything not offered him, gentle with children and slept for three weeks with my 75 year old arthritic mom in her bed. He'd whimper if she left the house...yes he was strong as hell and could bite through a car's tire- but bottom line he only wanted to please.

There are simple, basic rules that people should follow with all dogs, such as never leaving an infant or toddler alone with any dog, and never keeping a dog as a pet if it's not one you could take down if you needed to. If people can't follow these types of rules, the dog breed is going to be irrelevant except for the final amount of damage, because you're just playing the odds at that point.

People follow icons, not logic.

If they knew that German Shepherds were more aggressive, more lethal, they wouldn't be talking about Pits.

There's a reason the police use GS's, there's a reason Nazi Germany used them too, and just about every police state that comes to mind.

There are places in this world where parents eat their old children to survive through hunger, and people want to bitch about a dog attack?

Why are the vast majority of dog-bite fatalities caused by pit bulls?

http://i48.tinypic.com/of3nn4.jpg

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_fatal_dog_attacks_in_the_United_States

This is what you call prima facie evidence that pit bulls are dangerous.

The pit bull lovers refuse to acknowledge this, but the fact is that pit bulls are dangerous because they have such a powerful bite. All it takes it one second in the lifetime of the dog for a tragedy to occur.

A few years ago I had a Yorkie who was the most gentle dog in the world. One day we were playing, and the most gentle dog in the world suddenly bit me on the hand. He immediately realized what he had done, looked me in the eye with the most human look I've ever seen on a dog, and then he ran like hell. His bite didn't even break the skin. If that Yorkie had been a pit bull, I'd have pulled back a bloody stump. And instead of running away, he may very well have decided to just finish me off, because pit bulls are known to do that and have the strength to do that. If my Yorkie had tried to finish me off, I'd have picked him and thrown him against the wall.

Some animals are just too dangerous to have in a home, especially a home with children or in a neighborhood with children. I don't give a shit about the anecdotal evidence people provide about their personal pit bulls who were perfect little angels and the bestest dogs ever. 99% of them may be, but the 1% who are killers make the breed too dangerous to have as pets. It's trivially easy to find reports of children killed by the family pit bull. Invariably the parents are hysterically sobbing "But he was the most gentle animal ever! He never bit anyone ever ever before!"

Banning pit bulls is nothing like banning guns. An unattended gun won't escape from its pen or jump a fence and kill people. Pit Bulls can and do.

Hog Farmer nailed it when he said "Guns don't kill people. Pit bulls do.".

[EagleRob]

Pitbull owner here. Sorry to hear the latest news. I hear these stories all the time and they worry me because I don't know have a full understanding of what triggers the attacks.

My dog is absolutely kind and loving and I try not to live in fear of him losing his sanity. But I totally get the anti-pit sentiment. It's a shame people only hear the bad news about them.

What's worse is many adoption agencies hide the terrier when advertising the breed of the dog people are adopting. I'll bet many people think they have a retriever, lab, or shepherd mix but if you look up staffordshire terrier you just might recognize facial features of a dog near you. We were told our dog was lab, retriever mix and turns out the blood work revealed he was staffie (pit), shepherd, and Finnish spitz.

There are breed bans in many counties around me and in every bordering state. My dog is discriminated against by every kennel, most veterinarians and others because he "looks like a pit". He is but I had to get the blood work to know for sure.

I'm not giving him up. You'll have to come and get him. He's never done anything to anyone. But I suppose the possibility is enough to make people lose their heads about it.

That was excellent post, except for the last sentence. Banning a dangerous breed isn't "losing your head about it".

A reasonable compromise would probably be to grandfather in existing pit bulls, but ban any new ones.

I adopted a lab retreiver mix 3 weeks ago when I asked what else it was they said they weren't sure. It looks like a pit bull and I really hope its how you raise them more then anything else he came from a high kill shelter he is only 14 weeks and so far so good but I can tell you when we play he is strong but he is very sweet. He is also very fearless I have a deck in that back of my house that has a 4 foot drop and I had him out there today and he leaped right off of it. I am a big guy so no matter how big he gets I will always be able to handle him but I just hope he stays good. I f anyone has any advice let me know.

No that's what you call bullshit. No other breed is misidentified more. Anything that looks even remotely similar to a pit is called a pit. Sometimes the dogs don't even look lit pits get called pits when reporters show up. Several people have put together slideshows where you pick the pit bull out. Google them and see how you do.

Aside from that Pits don't have mutant freakishly powerful jaws. Your hyperbole is ridiculous. Rotties bite just as hard as pits yet you aren't suggesting they should be banned.

I believe that.

I've done hospital time from a cow, so has my mother and I know other people as well.
If they count rodeo bulls I'm certain it's true.

The difference? Being killed by a cow is an occupational hazard. If you're not in a pen, barn or trailer with a cow, it cannot harm you.

People let dogs sleep with their children.

I completely believe that other breeds bite lots of people. I also completely believe that when certain breeds bite people, they do a shit load more damage. Jack Russel's are dickhead dogs and bite a lot of people, but you don't see a lot of missing faces and plastic surgery from them.

I always see the conflict from Pit supporters. They're the most loyal, intelligent, loving creatures to ever grace the earth, yet, I see posts in this thread suggesting traits for Pit ownership to get their respect. Don't know too many children with those traits.
