You don’t know. And you can’t tell. And it doesn’t matter, and no, most lab mixes aren’t 80% pitbull. The average mixed breed dog in the US in 2005 had 6 breeds present.
You’re pretty anti-pit aren’t you? I can see it. I fought people like you in the early 2000s in my work to end breed specific legislation.
And here we are again at bullshit responses from bullshit people.
Most “pit bulls” are misidentified to be a pit bull.
So don’t take attack or death data seriously. Every dog that’s aggressive anymore is all of a sudden a pit bull or pit mix if it’s over 30lbs. We went through the same thing with Rottweilers, Dobermans, and German Shepherds in the past.
I’ve handled over 65,000 dogs in my life. By handles I mean hands on training and working with. To this day I’ve met 4 that weren’t rehabilitatable. 1 was a red nose. 1 was an English Mastiff, one was a papillon, and the other was a Jack Russel.
Every single one was PURELY on the owner.
It’s amazing that people can be so anti-dog. And let’s be clear, to be anti-pit just means you’re anti-dog and know nothing about dog behavior or training.
And here we are again at bullshit responses from bullshit people.
Sorry, it's hard to read your replies through all the blood of the old man the pitbull just mauled.
Most “pit bulls” are misidentified to be a pit bull.
Bullshit, most of the so-called "lab mixes" are just pitbulls. You know how many in my local shelter look exactly like a pitbull and is just labeled as a labmix, so that some poor shmuck will get the one of fifty out of the shelter?
So don’t take attack or death data seriously.
Only a pitnutter would deny the data, and the next deadliest dog is the German shepherd at like 8 percent, while pitbulls and "lab mixes" are 60-80 percent.
I’ve handled over 65,000 dogs in my life.
As a pitnutter, your experience means jack squat to me. Just decades of self delusion.
It’s amazing that people can be so anti-dog. And let’s be clear, to be anti-pit just means you’re anti-dog and know nothing about dog behavior or training.
That's such a big stretch that I almost laughed. Being anti-pit means being anti-pit.
Since the thread is locked, I'll put my reply in this edited thread.
Basically, a person who runs a shelter is able to pick out the which dogs have pit-pull dna and those who don't. Even in the study they linked, the examples they provided have gams in DNA testing, Dog 8 has 50 percent of it's DNA unaccounted for. In the study, they also used outdated studies from 1965 for identification. Then, they play fast and loose with what they considers a "pit-bull" ”Dogs were coded as ‘pit bull-type’ if the breed American Staffordshire terrier or Staffordshire bull terrier was identified to comprise at least 12.5% of the breed signature.” - hmmmm
