Have to back Zamler up on this. Pitbulls just go at the snap of the fingers, and for no good reason.
I have seen it twice. One dog, at the Southland dog park, took out a little fluffy dog in seconds. It was just trotting along past it, and bam, dead half decapitated fluffy dog.
And saw one turn on it's owner at the Britannia dog park. The dog was literally clawing the trim off of this ladies Lexus trying to get at her inside. I was terrified, and ran across the street to a customers house with my 12 pound wiener dog, and waited for animal control to show up.
Both of these Pitbull owners were women, and both were upper-middle class women trying to do the "But it's not the dog, it's the owner." thing. Not your stereotypical truck nutz, Affliction tattoo dude. If I show up at a dog park, and see a Staffordshire, or Pitbull, I am not letting my dog out of the car.
Pitbulls turn with no warning, that is the problem. No growling, no nothing, they just go for it. If a regular dog is a pocket knife, a Pitbull is like a 12 gauge shotgun. Once they attack you, you are at best, disfigured for life. I believe the breed should be eliminated by just making breeding the dog, illegal. There is zero practical use for the breed, and even less use for the typical owner of the breed.
