I completely agree with those of you that say pit owners, or any dog owner, should be held accountable for any attack or negligent abuse/care of their dogs. I believe that poor ownership can be tacked back to the overwhelming majority of these attacks. If we disciplined pet owners for their own irresponsible control of their pets, I think much of this problem would be solved.
As Ingwe states, pits were once used and considered by the public to be nanny dogs. But, there came a time a few decades ago where the dogs were targeted by people for the wrong reasons. This is the problem and the root of these attacks. this is what this discussion should be about. Not pitbulls or any other breeds.
