From my observations locally, pit owners look as likely to bite as their dogs.
Prayers sent for the young victim.

I have had dogs all my life and recently our beagle passed away so we started looking around and it seemed everywhere we looked there was an abundance of pitbulls. The rescue shelters had allot of them, the pounds had allot and there were many advertised on craiglist. I would not have one myself for reasons you folks have mentioned. It is striking so many are around though. Buyer's remorse? By the way we now have a new beagle.
I'm so sorry this happened to this young lady. I hope she recovers way beyond what they think she will. The rescue shelters and county animal shelters also seem to always have an abundance of pit bull mixed breeds for adoption all the time. Some even try to down play down the pit bull mix breeding by calling it another less threatening sounding name.

That's the potential answer to getting rid of the breed right there ,if the shelter didn't charge so much to adopt them a guy could get one every saturday take them out of town and off them on the spot. Gross irresponsibility that they try to adopt them out in the first place.

I've said it before - the breed is schizophrenic. It's a brain defect bred into them. They can be the greatest pets in the world but something can trigger a complete change from pet to killer in an instant. Owners always say what great pets they are but theirs just hasn't switched yet. Just wondering out loud, how many years does it take to cater a breed of dog to a specific task? Hunters and dog breeders have done this since domestication began several generations of pit bulls being the groid dog of choice, groid dog groid behavior Pretty interesting read. https://www.americanscientist.org/article/how-to-tame-a-fox-and-build-a-dog

Our shelter is the same way
Most of the dogs are “pit bull/mix” or straight up pits
Why do we the public want to redistribute these animals right back out to unknowing or in-denial nitwits.
A person I knew of (co-worker’ mom) was a bleeding heart sucker for these things. She ran a somewhat of a “halfway house” of all places in a crowded subdivision. Had 1/2 dozen of them at any given time. Problem dogs on a rotation, she “try” them out in a new homing environment.
Bad recipe, I figured one day he’d tell his me mother got chewed up.

Here is pic of the androgynous punk lesbo irresponsible dog owner. And two of the beloved beasts. ![[Linked Image from i.postimg.cc]](https://i.postimg.cc/tTSPx5Tf/C267-C1-DD-9-EB0-4-EBC-A9-AC-0-F8423-A2619-A.jpg) [/url] ![[Linked Image from i.postimg.cc]](https://i.postimg.cc/MHnBbQfG/01533684-9-A4-E-4407-8423-32035-E26-E425.jpg) [/url] There is no reason whatsoever that those-or any dog-should be allowed off lead in a populated area. People get hurt, dogs get hurt...etc. Said it here many times before...I never worked with a pit bull that wasn't a just plain sweet dog. That said, I never got into any enclosed area with one ( yard, house etc..) that I wasn't prepared to kill.

The laws in most states require pit owners to wear flat bill caps. and lots of gold jewelry

Dog and owner were probably graduates of the Pitbull and Parolees program.

yeah, something happened over the last 30-40 yrs, when I was young you seldom heard of attacks like this and people had them back then. I remember my friend's dad raised them, Walter and I were doing some stuff on my Camaro when we saw his dad come out of the house with a shotgun and walked over to sam his male pit and blow his head off, Walter asked him why and he said sam had growled at him earlier. People used to have enough sense to kill a dog when it showed the first sign....which can help stop more serious problems before they happen with that dog or it's offspring or it's offspring's offspring.

Agree they've let the bad seeds like Rock Chuck mentioned live and breed , plus morons doing what they can to make the dogs mean .

I have posted this before, Pit Bull Rescue is very popular these days by the Millenial crowd.

There is something psychologically wrong with Pit Bulls AND PIT BULL OWNERS/DEFENDERS.. It's that simple...
A good principle to guide me through life: “This is all I have come to expect, standard lackluster performance. Trust nothing, believe no one and realize it will only get worse…”

Dog breeds become fads. The current fad is pits but people don't understand the problem with the breed. The defective gene only manifests itself when something triggers the schitzo to switch and it's impossible to know which ones have the gene. Pit bulls aren't even close to a "fad". They are only popular with low income, low information, trash, that have no inkling about caring for or training a dog. Pitbulls are plentiful and cheap, or free, and people that have a clue don't want them. They won't have them around their family or friends, or neighbors. That's why the dog pounds are chock full of them. I will add that there a few exceptions. A few good pitbull owners, and few good pitbulls.

Where is Mike Vick when you need him? He would have grabbed that dog by the hind legs, and drowned him in a 5 gallon bucket of water, like he did with his pit bulls that he was unhappy with.

Pit bulls and rottweilers should be outlawed. Just simply too many cases of the breeds being unpredictable. No reason to risk incidents like this at all.

Several years ago, in a town about 25 miles from my home, a 3 year old got into the pen with the family's pitbull and they found the little boy dead. These people had no business with a child or the dog.

"According to a Barrow County Sheriff’s report, a deputy who responded to a witness' report of the attack arrived on the scene to find the girl lying face down against a curb, with one dog grabbing her neck and the other biting at the girl’s head."
This was in a suburban neighborhood. Obviously, the kids were not back in school. At least one person witnessed the attack and called 911. Probably there were more witnesses.
The girl is laying face down on the street, her face against the curb, and two dogs attacking her head. And nobody came forth to help that little girl? Not a single 16 year old high school boy ran out with a baseball bat, or a 2x4? Not a single housewife came out, with a frying pan or a butcher knife.
Nobody came to help. They waited on law enforcement.
