I had two roommates who both had pitbulls. Both very loving owners. These dogs were treated right. But they could not coexist.

After one fight too many, one of the owners got mauled by his own dog after trying to break the dogs up. He almost lost his hand.

Ban pitbulls.

Retaliation isn't very wholesome.

Yeah no, Pit bulls should be banned.

[–] cloudless@lemmy.cafe 8 points 2 years ago

In 2009, the Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia released a five-year review of dog-bite injuries. The review states that 51 percent of attacks were made by pit bulls.

https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/19644273/

In 2009, another study was published by the American Journal of Forensic Medicine and Pathology. The study ran for 15 years and it has concluded that pit bulls, German Shepherds, and Rottweilers are among the most common breeds that cause fatal dog attacks in Kentucky State.

https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/19696575/

In 2011, the Annals of Surgery published a study, which concluded that Pitbull attacks lead to more expensive hospital bills, higher risk of death, and higher morbidity rates compared to other breeds of dogs.

Cute, but should be put down as all others of this race

[–] AlexLost@lemm.ee 2 points 5 months ago (1 children)

Can we put down the bad humans too then? Dogs aren't inherently bad or good, it's how they are treated and the resources they have access to, strangely much like us humans?! Weird!

[–] calavera@lemmy.zip 4 points 5 months ago* (last edited 5 months ago) (1 children)

Except this breed was created by us specifically for its violence. It's in their genes. As far as I know there was no artificial breeding for pure violent humans. We created this abomination, we should put and end to it

[–] AlexLost@lemm.ee 2 points 5 months ago (1 children)

We created all dog breeds. Violence is not something found in DNA, but keep trying that angle. You are just scared of them, and fair enough, but let's not pretend the dogs only purpose in life is to bite people. Most dog breeds do not serve their purpose any longer and we buy them because we like them. Many dogs are violent and untrained. If pit bulls did not exist, you would ha e another breed in its place you are complaining about because people are terrible and irresponsible. Don't blame the dog, blame the owner. My friend hates cocker spaniels because one bit her face when she was an infant and the memory has never left her. Should we ban that breed too?

[–] calavera@lemmy.zip 2 points 5 months ago* (last edited 5 months ago) (7 children)

Tell me when a cocker reach this kind of mortality then I will tell you to ban them too

Don't create excuses. Not all dogs are the same, this dog is a murder machine and should be put down. It's not their fault, but this doesn't change the fact that they were bred to maximum damage

My thoughts are just based in numbers, yours, not so much

I don't really have a problem with any dog specifically.

But I don't think there is any reason to have something like a pitbull unless you absolutely need it for security.

Largely they should be bred out of existence. But that doesn't mean we shouldn't include other breeds like pugs and maybe even something like a poodle.

Pretty much every dog is great but you don't need a pitbull, get something else. For the love of god don't get a pug or I'll think you're a cunt.

What a shitty post.

[–] burgermeister@lemm.ee 2 points 8 months ago

They look so happy and fuzzy and cuddly

[–] xxce2AAb@feddit.dk 2 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago)

I'm not sure any post in a 'wholesome' community should include the word 'retaliation'. Retort? Sure. Response. Absolutely. Reply? Fine. But retaliation? Not exactly wholesome.

[–] STRIKINGdebate2@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago (5 children)

Just wondering? How hard is it for some of you to say "aww cute, doggy"or something like that?

[–] jerkface@lemmy.ca 2 points 6 months ago

But you have nothing to say about OP taunting people in the post.

You're dogs are cute, But I'm sticking with the numbers on this one. I don't think any pits living right now should be put down, but I strongly believe we should stop breeding them entirely.

[–] Bobmighty@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Those aren't actually OPs dogs. This is a bait.
