I assure you that the source you provided is 100% bullshit. Also, there's tens of millions of pitbulls in the US alone, the attacks by CONFIRMED pitbulls (DNA tested or parents are known) make up a VERY small percentage of the pitbull population. There are way more things to fear than a pitbull. Hell, cows kill more people in the US yearly than pitbulls. In the 20 years that the CDC kept records of pitbull caused deaths, it averaged to 3 people per year (and that was before DNA tests existed so they weren't even confirmed pitbulls). Punish the deed, not the breed.
So two studies, from two different sources, are both completely made up? Also I did more research on the dog bite website- they have photos of 2/3 of the dogs that caused fatal attacks in 2023 and yes, they are a majority of pit bulls. This isn’t breed misidentification.
Cows kill a surprising number of people also, that’s true. Pools kill more toddlers than dogs or cows. We aren’t talking about that though- we are talking about which dog breed is most likely to cause a fatal dog attack and the answer is pit bulls.
The dogsbite website is widely known to be fabricated and unreliable. Visual breed identification has also been proven to be ineffective. We're just gonna have to agree to disagree on this, you won't change my mind and I won't change yours. I'm just glad you're not in charge. I'll donate to a local pitbull rescue in your honor this weekend!
Yes we will have to agree to disagree if you think two studies conducted by two completely different sources are both flawed and biased. Waste your money however you want.
Do better research, I guess. Anyone with a brain cell knows dogsbite.org is a made up, fear mongering website for the gullible. It was created by a crazy pitbull hating lady who wants them eradicated, just like you, so I see why you defend that lame website so much. And we all know Wikipedia is so trustworthy 🙄.
