I'm amazed at how many people have the wrong idea...
AtomSmasher:
I believe that most properly trained pitbulls will never spontanously attack someone. However, I also believe that very few pitbulls are properly trained and that a pitbull not properly trained is far more likely to attack a person than any other breed.

The fact is you don't know a damn thing about these dogs, all you know is what you read online, but somehow that does not include what i say and you only like to hear the bad things that you want to hear. I bet it makes you feel good to hate things for no good reason.
I've told you that my dog has been a perfect dog for many years now and if another 10 years went by and it was still the same, you guys would just come up with another stupid reason why he did not bite anyone and that i am still in danger. It will never end with you people, once you get a bad idea in your head you can never let it go. I feel sorry for you.

I'll answer in bulletin form to keep things simple:
-because I do know more about the breed than the owner
-I've done considerable research from credible sources and had conversations with a well known and respected PROFESSIONAL dog breeder and police dog trainer.
- I don't hate anything for "no good reason". I have very good reason for "not liking" you though. ;D
-I don't give a rats ass about "your dog". "Your dog" is not the problem. The thousands of other poorly trained, poorly bred, POORLY owned pit bulls are the problem.
- Don't worry, lots of people feel sorry for you too.
BTW, there is nothing in your link I have not already said here in this thread, or posted a link to. The "glory days" of the American Pit Bull has already been mentioned. Pay attention!

Thank god Tommy is an NFL Expert, because he's way off on his pitbull argument. Any dog owner despite if it is a Chihuahua or Pitbull that refuses to believe that their dog incapable of random violence has their head burried in the sand. Pitbulls which were bred to be aggressive will always have a possibility to become aggressive despite how they were raised. Its the same thing for dog breeds used as bird dogs, they have some natural talents which in this case is a liability. As long as the Pitbull owner is responsible and doesn't leave the dog unrestrained and unable to kill anyone but the owner there shouldn't be a problem, but if their neglegence results in death then the dog owner should be held responsible as if the animal was a weapon.

You're right, and me and my dog are proof that with the right training and care any dog can also "not be the problem" if the proper steps are taken.
That's all i've been saying here.
Thanks you for supporting me and my dog and my dog training methods. ;D
