If a pit bull terrier or a Rottweiler has a bad moment, often someone is maimed or killed-and that has now created off-the-chart actuarial risk, for which the dogs as well as their victims are paying the price. If almost any other dog has a bad moment, someone may get bitten, but will not be maimed for life or killed, and the actuarial risk is accordingly reasonable. In more than two-thirds of the cases included in the study, the life-threatening or fatal attack was apparently the first known dangerous behavior by the animal in question. The author's observations about the breeds and generally how to deal with the dangerous dog problem are enlightening.Īccording to the Clifton study, pit bulls, Rottweilers, Presa Canarios and their mixes are responsible for 74% of attacks that were included in the study, 68% of the attacks upon children, 82% of the attacks upon adults, 65% of the deaths, and 68% of the maimings.

The shelters are full of pit mixes because something isn't quite right with society, our community is failing people in some way, and people are failing their animals. All dog owners will have be financially responsible for any damage cause by their dog. Since breeds are so hard to determine and since there is not a single genetic market for aggression, I expect that eventually all insurance companies will eventually refuse to insure any dog of any type. Labs are actually the number one dog for bites (because there so many of them as a popular breed), and there are many smaller dogs on the frequent biter list. Other idiots think that spaying or neutering their dogs will somehow weaken them. And a small minority of people do not want to turn off that cash flow. ![]() Pits are not "aggressive by nature" but by man and even then it is a hard go, so nutty people have to try hard again and again to breed "aggressive dogs" shelters are full of their failures, dogs too old, too friendly, too sweet, too non-aggressive to fight! And the mama dogs who are used as puppy factories because puppies can be sold for cold hard cash while the mama dog does all the work. Why do they make up 90% of abandoned animals in shelters?īecause people are idiots! Because pits are not aggressive dogs by nature, there is no "aggression gene" and domestic animals of all sorts have multiple genes across many domains that have shifted during the domestication process that make it possible for us to live and bond with dogs, cats, horses, donkeys, etc. The last 3 times I have been all I see are cages and cages and cages of Rot/Pit bull mixes, or just pit bulls.
