Reasons I cant trust Pitbulls

You just never know.

the Dogs are called "Pit"-"bulls" for a reason, they were bread to be fighting dogs, not house hold pets, and no matter docile they may appear you just cant trust them.

Female pits are the sweetest dogs I've ever known. From being a toddler, and going over into my neighbors yard to play with "sugar bear", often without adult supervision. 

Any breed can technically go off, and attack a person. 

Fun fact,  the Cocker Spanial is guilty of having the most attacks on humans, as reported by the hospitals themselves. 

Yes, pitbulls were breed for fighting, but like ANY breed, it's how it's raised and treated by its owners. 

I'll take a pit over most breeds.  Excellent companions, excellent with kids, low maintenance breed. Lot to love about a Pit.

P.S. While it's unfortunate that the lady passed away, blaming the breed isn't the answer.

This is 100% true.

However when a pekingese goes off you shake it off your pant leg. When a pit bull goes off, people die.

This will end in the TBox where it belongs eventually.

My aunt has a maltese that I swear is the meanest little poo alive, but it weighs 2 pounds, if it tries to bite you, you can punt it across the yard.

I grew up with this story..(who didn't in my generation..) 

Didn't realize they were pit bulls when I was young. So I've always had an affection for pits, and I do believe owners are the problem not the breed. 

@Kevin Greene what about a wild pack of pekingese?

I tried to read the Poky Little Puppy to my son and he threw it at me and said "read me Little Blue Truck, bitch."

 

My wife must be reading him Andrew Dice Clay's autobiography again.

meh, it all depends on how the dogs were raised

There are just way too many shitty humans in this world who create mean pits.

In my experience though, it's the smaller dogs who can be some of natures biggest assholes.

The problem is the shitty owners don't know they are shitty owners.

My buddy is watching my GSD for me for awhile so I can find a house and all. He has a pit. 

Let's just say my German has pretty much took over the house in a dominant fashion. Pinning it to the ground when it gets out of line. 

Just saying....pits aren't the most badass of the breeds by any stretch. Pits are wonderful dogs if you don't punch them in the face constantly.
