Pitbullman has had a busy day - first a chihuahua and now a 5 year-old.
Where will pitbullman's adventures take him next? But seriously its horrifying. |

Nope. Just business as usual in pitbull land.

What bothers me is there aren’t any new funny pit bull memes. Someone needs to get on this. I’d say a ban on Pitbull threads until Sitestaff has at least five news memes in the hopper.

Quoted:
Again, it is not guns compared to dogs, it's how they are portrayed in the media, and by overly emotional people who seem fixated on the breed. If this were an anti-AR15 website, we would see every story of a shooting or accident or murder involving an AR15 posted again and again. That's how biased, fixated people who are driven by emotions behave. View Quote View All Quotes View All Quotes Quoted:

Pitbulls are extremely loyal and will do whatever they think you want them to do, including be a shitbag. If you don't like them, don't get one. If someone else's property hurts you, they should be held responsible. If someone else's property scares you, you're no different than a gun grabbing pussy. It's dangerous to leave any dog unattended around a small child. Freedom is scary yo. I'll buy you a beer any day |

But you do apperantly spend your day worrying about other people worrying about other people's dogs View Quote View All Quotes View All Quotes Quoted:
Quoted: I have to be honest, I don't spend a single second of my day worrying about other people's dogs. But I am continuously amused by all the hand-wringing and fear that we see in GD regarding dogs. This morning in the snow, I heard a frantic scratching at our front door. Apparently, our neighbor's rescue dog (part pitbull) had gotten loose and ran over to our house. I opened to door and let her in. Wildly wagging, she tasted all the kids and the wife, and couldn't decide which one to eat. Instead, she tried to play with our grumpy and aloof Ridgeback. He was not amused. Rather than shoot the dog and without trembling in fear, I walked it back over to their house, and let her in their front door. You know, like a normal person. |

Let us check the statistical period over the ten year period of 2005 and 2014. According to DogsBite.org, a non-profit organization that compiles and analyzes all of the dogs bite attacks in the country, Pit bulls accounted for 203 deaths in those ten years. View Quote |

This is the stupidest meme, but funny.

I wonder why the pitt bull attacked?
1. It was hungry and the infant was fresh meat? 2. It saw the child as a threat to its place in the pack? 3. The parents snubbed the dog while tending to the infant and the dog was pissed? 4. Pitt bulls doing what pitt bulls do? |

“Overall there are approximately 78.2 million dogs throughout the United States, 3.91 million of those dogs are pit bulls.
However, 40 percent of dogs in animal shelters are characterized as bully breeds, and 20 percent of those are called pit bulls.” “The Centers for Disease Control report that 4.5 million people are bitten by dogs every year. Of these, 800,000 seek medical attention and half are children between the ages of 5 and 9. Approximately 16 of these attacks are fatal each year. Some insurance companies consider dog breeds in a household when considering whether or not to provide home owners insurance. A dog from any breed can bite a child. Thus, it becomes important to properly introduce a child to dog and teach children how to avoid being bitten. American Humane Association has a pamphlet available to new parents, Pet Meets Baby. By compiling U.S. and Canadian press accounts between 1982 and 2011, Animal People, listed the following breeds and associated outcomes for dog bites: The combination of pit bulls, Rottweilers, their close mixes and wolf hybrids: • 77% of attacks that induce bodily harm • 73% of attacks to children • 81% of attack to adults • 68% of attacks that result in fatalities • 76% that result in maiming Forbes (2012) reported on a list of eleven breeds that were riskier for home owners and renters, and may be associated with higher home owner’s insurance costs. In some cases, insurance companies will not insure when certain breeds are part of the family (especially true for the first four breeds on the list): 1. Pit Bulls & Staffordshire Terriers 2. Doberman Pinschers 3. Rottweilers 4. German Shepherds 5. Chows 6. Great Danes 7. Presa Canarios 8. Akitas 9. Alaskan Malamutes 10. Siberian Huskies 11. Wolf-hybrids” http://www.bradfordlicensing.com/documents/pets-fact-sheet.pdf QED |

A total of 166 owners of high risk dogs were compared with 189 owners of low risk dogs. The high risk dog owners had nearly 10 times more criminal convictions than other dog owners. Breaking the data down by categories of criminal behavior they found that high risk dog owners were 6.8 times more likely to be convicted of an aggressive crime, 2.8 times more likely to have carried out a crime involving children, 2.4 times more likely to have perpetrated domestic violence, and 5.4 times more likely to have an alcohol related conviction when compared to low risk dog owners.

I wouldn't have a dog in the house that was large enough to kill my child, especially a PB or GS. View Quote Never an issue. We kept the kids safe... easily. Once, when my youngest was about 4 or 5, the dog snipped at him when he did something to the dog... like pull her tail or something. We kept them apart for about 3 months... about the time my son figured out how to interact with our dog. No way you'd ever think of doing that with a pit-bull. |

Probably jealous of the baby. A baby should never be left alone with any dog, even if it's just a little toy one. Every dog is a wild, keystone predator with the emotional maturity of a two year old.
