This newspaper is so ridiculously ignorant! This is the kind of crap they report. Out of all the physically attractive, cuddly breeds of dogs in the world, why would anyone choose an ugly, un-cuddly dog like a pit-bull? A dog selectively bred for generations to fight other dogs and bears? A dog which empties an off-leash area in record time, makes people shun their owners, and involves a huge liability risk?
Obviously they have no idea what they are talking about and are spouting a bunch of crap about a great breed that was used by the military in WWII to do missions to dangerous for the troops and also used as nanny dogs to watch over small children as they are so loving and loyal. It is because of news like this that the breed has been given a bad rap and is being threatened. BLAME THE OWNER NOT THE BREED! I have had 5 pit bulls who all loved people, other dogs and were beautiful inside and out. I just had to post this to tell the world about their ignorance and how upset I am about this article!!
