Woman dead after being attacked by her two pit bulls in animal hospital

85. I have a friend that is a vet. She would like to see a

Breed ban. She said she sees lots of pit puppies that are sweet and finely and cute. Then they hit puberty and many become very dog aggressive. And these are dogs in good homes. They have never been abused.

I am a pet sitter and I won't take any of the bully breeds. I had an American bulldog try to attack me. I won't take that risk. There are other breeds I can't do because they are very territorial: German Shepherds, dobermans. Sheep guard dogs. Chows. They can all be dangerous but most of them don't kill people. Pits, Presa canarios, Cane Corsos American Bulldogs, boxer pit mixes. There are lots of breeds bred as guard dogs that can be dangerous.
Some are just a lot more dangerous than others. I think you hear more about pit attacks because there are so many of them and that causes the numbers to be higher than say the number 2 dog which are rottweilers .


You have to be realistic. I see pictures if people who let their dogs get right next to babies. That is so dangerous. 3 month old babies seem to be killed more often than other ages. It is awful.

Dogs are dogs. They are not babies. You always have to remember that. I know if one case where a pomeranian killed a new born.

I work with dogs 24 hours a day. I have great respect for their intelligence and instinct. But I am also always on the alert for signs they may be getting too agitated, too nervous or too scared.
