Mother fatally mauled by pack of dogs in Quitman, Georgia, 3 children taken to hospital - Lemmy.World

Dollars to donuts shitbulls we’re involved.
I bet irresponsible owners were involved.
I mean yeah they already said that were shitbull owners
Every pitbull owner is, by definition, irresponsible
Logic not your strong suit is it?
The breed should be extinguished. It serves no purpose other than dogfighting, mauling children, and wasting precious space in shelters.
Why don’t you personally go around and “exterminate” this one breed of dog? Carry out your personal dog-ocide, you fuckin hypocrite.
You stop breeding them, you don’t go around and kill dogs wtf is wrong with you.
I almost got mauled in the South. 100% irresponsible owners and nothing to do with the breed.

“I got hit by a tricycle”

“I got hit by an f150”

Something tells me it wasn’t a pomeranian
An irresponsible owner with a Yorkie can get your socks bitten, an irresponsible owner with a pitbull can kill you.
An irresponsible owner of a golden/newfie/GSD/dobie/St. Bernard/whatever can kill you too, it’s not the dog breed’s fault that idiots are attracted to them.

That’s disingenuous, especially with the livestock guardian, rescue, and hunting dog breeds you listed - precisely because those were the traits selected for when creating those breeds.

Even GSD and Dobermans don’t carry the specific risk that Pitbulls do, because their jobs require different behavioral traits that are very different then dog fighting.

Do you believe that pitbulls are the only working dog breed whose characteristics and behavior is completely independent of the selective breeding process used to create them?

Yes, all dogs carry some risk, especially large dogs, and exponentially when combined with a responsible owner.

Yes, pitbulls can be extremely sweet and affectionate dogs, but that doesn’t change the fact that they were intentionally bred to be the best in class breed for dog fighting

Again, I like pitbulls, a lot, but that doesn’t mean I can pretend that pitbulls are the only working breed whose behavioral traits are completely independent of their breeding.
