There is one right point though, this is mostly stupidity of humans who think that buying a pitbull will make their penis larger. Its owner should be jailed on three independent accounts of man and child slaughter
Please show me the stats on Labs snapping on kids.
And please remove “kissing attacks” from your data. I’ll wait.
Ask them, in a hypothetical situation where every breed is banned except chihuahuas, would there be more / less / equal amount of kids being mauled?
If breed didn’t matter, there would be equal amounts. But you can’t say that in good faith.
pit bulls are working dogs and should be treated as such.
Pit bull owners need to travel to a third world country to see the guard dogs bred exclusively for aggression.
They’re so ferocious that people typically avoid any type of dog altogether.
Listen, I get it. Any dog can snap, even my 22lb Chihuahua/ Dachshund/treeing coonhound mix.
She decided out of the blue that my wife was a threat for sitting on the edge of the bed and it resulted in a trip to the emergency room.
But the thing is, Bean here is 22lbs and after the initial, WHAT THE FUCK moment, I could grab her and secure her in a crate.
You’re not doing that with 70-80 lbs of pure muscle.
Lots of dogs can pose a bite risk but pit bulls pose a rather unique mauling risk. It’s not just a bite but a frenzied attack that doesn’t stop until someone is dead. This is what the dogs were bred for and it’s what we get almost uniquely from the breed.
It’s not just because they’d big and strong… lots of breeds and big and could kill if they attacked relentlessly, but even when agitated and angry it almost never happens, except for pit bulls. They pose a unique risk for viscous attacks.
My wife was home sick one day and I started to feel sick so I left work early. For some reason I don’t remember why I came in the house through the front door, when I normally came through the garage. Upon hearing the front door open at a random time of the day and being very protective of us especially when sick, my borde collie came running out of the bedroom growling like I had never heard her do before with teeth showing. The second she realized it was me she stopped and came over for pets.

2 notable excerpts:
- Pitbulls are responsible for 66.9% (380) of these deaths.
- As per Colorado Injury Law, although Pitbulls and Rottweilers make up only 6% of dogs in the US, they’re responsible for 77% of all dog bites.
It’s almost like people who love these dogs are anti-science and facts! I have a friend who loves these breeds. Guess what, he owns guns and is anti-vaxx. Surprise surprise.
Funny enough, many people who get these dogs do so because they can’t legally own firearms.
Fck that, that’s why I will always love cats more, cats would never do something like that!
My friends family cat gave him 66 stitches, many on top of his head. Despite this they kept the cat which seems insane. That cat’s name?
Lucky
The only thing that prevents cats from killing us is their size. They want to.
Source - cat owner my entire life
Yes, their size is the entire point though.
Not all cats, but a lot of cats. Also a lifelong cat owner. I have a cat who I would warn small children away from. His littermate is so friendly and cuddly, though. Of course, both want nothing to do with kids, so they disappear as soon as someone under 4’ enters the house.
Those meows to be fed are actually death threats to be fed.
Cats are literally natures killing machines in any niche they’re in. They’re natures perfected predator what do you mean?
Their niche doesn’t include humans, even little ones. That makes them more suitable as a pet, even if they are better at killing their prey than dogs.
Most dogs wouldn’t either, it’s just that pitbulls were bred for aggression. A border collie without training is still occasionally going to try to herd stuff and a pitbull without training will still occasionally try to bite down on an exposed spot and start shaking. With a border collie you might get a funny story of that one time when your family dog escaped and brought 3 sheep home, but the pitbull story will be less funny.
As for cats and dogs: As a 2 year old, my brother bit our family dog (a malamute) on the nose. The dog didn’t even try to retaliate. As a ~12 year old the same brother was pestering the family cat, in reaction the cat tried to claw an eye, but only got the eyelid. In my experience dogs tend to be much sweeter pets than cats, but that’s also needed because of the size difference.
I don’t know if you’ve ever seen cats fight each other, but i really doubt that cat was trying to take out an eye. When cats get aggressive/territorial with each other they give lots of little ‘warning swipes’ near sensitive areas, but just out of contact range. I suspect this is because they have these sensitive whiskers on their faces and near their eyes, so when a claw passes by those quickly its a real and sudden instinct to back the fuck away. I’ve also seen cats scratch at human faces quite often, and seen lots of minor injuries near the eyes/on the bridge of the nose, but never one that actually contacts the eye. This is all anecdotal and shouldn’t be used as evidence for anything, but in my extensive experience with cats i strongly believe that they are both very capable of fucking someone up in extreme ways, but usually unwilling. They tend to have pretty good control over how far to take it. My cats fight each other all the time and it seems very savage, but they’ve never injured each other.
I have seen cats fight. I’ve seen cats pussy out. I have seen a male cat hump a neutered male cat. Just because you personally haven’t seen something, doesn’t mean it never happened.
So yes, it was 100% definitely an attack on the eye. This was the only time that he had ever been aggressive towards us and imo it was justified. My brother was pestering the cat. The cat had his head down and was glaring, but not moving. I told my brother to stop it, because the cat obviously didn’t like it. My brother looked at me to answer, the cat used this moment of distraction to unwind like a spring and claw at my brother’s eye. My brother reacted by pulling away and had pulled back just enough to save his eye when the claw reached him. Given that my brother’s lower eyelid was bleeding, I’m certain that his eye would have been fucked up had he not pulled away. This was the only attack that this cat ever did towards us and it was enough, my brother never pestered him again. This cat also never play fought, he came to us when he was already nearly an adult.
My Cairn can barely maul her own toes.
Boop
“This can happen by any breed” says breed from which this most commonly happens
By a massive margin.
Some breeds are genuinely extremely aggressive. I’m not usually bothered by dogs, but on a holiday in the canary islands I felt genuinely unsafe because of the local breed of asshole dogs.
Hope it was worth it. Lost your kids and maybe your wife. For what.
I wouldn’t be able to go on.
breeders gonna breed
Any breed? My chihuahuas and Maltese are shaking their heads NO.
My shihtzu calls bullshit.
That’s a bullshitzu!
Well played!
How stupid can one be
Yes we’ll it could but one breed is responsible for the most deaths we’ll not being a small percentage of all dogs. So no statistically it happens with pitbulls.
