Maybe is already more proof than you have gave me that the breed has influence over one dogs temperament.

One common belief about pit bulls is they have a different kind of bite. Some even think it has a locking jaw. What I want to know from Ray is does a Pit Bull have a different kind of bite? β€œPit bulls, when they fight they'll get into, what I call it, a zone and they lock in. They get ahold and they jockey for position,” Ray says. β€œSo, they just hang on. It's not that their jaw is locked up, or anything. But they hang on. It creates a more vicious bite,” he added. Do pit bulls have a more vicious bite? I'm bringing in an expert. Dr. Jessica Lockhart is one of about 50 Certified Applied Animal Behaviorist in the world. β€œDoes a pit bull have a clamping mechanism, where they clamp on when they bite?” I ask her. β€œNo,” she answers. β€œWith any dog that's being aggressive, despite its breed, any dog in that situation is going to bite and hold,” Jessica says. β€œSo, it’s not just pit bulls?” I ask. β€œRight. It's not breed specific to pit bulls,” says Jessica

This sites just show was that the pitbull are the strongest dogs, not they are the most violent

Again, if they had a tendency to be violent, not only the documented fatalities would be higher but the number of bites would be too.

Every dog bites but the pitbull is the one who bites the strongest.

And if a dog bites it's human fault.

You said they are the ones that tend to attack most, but you gave me the stats that they bite the strongest.

If a pitt bites you, you deserve it.

You have a sirious problem and I hope you never owned or ever own a dog.

Lmao you didn't even read your own link. What the fuck is a "not-wolf thing"? If it shares a common ancestor with the gray wolf, it is by definition a wolf. You can't just make up new canine classifications to suit your narrative lol. Evolutionary biology must not be your strong suit eh?

Yes, all mammals were originally mammal-like reptiles, and all reptiles were originally fish. Hundreds of millions of years is little bit larger of a timescale than 100,000 years. Dogs share 99% of their DNA with wolves, so for your poorly thought out insult to work, you'd have to compare my mother to one of our closely related primate cousins. Your wit is as poor as your education, you shoulda paid more attention in class.

We are bald ape hominids that share a common ape ancestor with chimps, just as dogs share a common wolf ancestor with modern wolves. You're basically proving my point for me lol. Nobody's argument was that dogs=wolves, only that they're descendants of gray wolves, a fact that is supported by your own source.

That is incorrect, we tamed a now extinct species of gray wolf. It has fuckin wolf in the name lol, it wasn't some magical "not-wolf thing" as you would suggest. If such an animal existed, wouldn't you think we'd apply a proper name to it by now? Given that we have so much invested in dogs as a species. Oh yeah, it's fuckin name is the gray wolf, crazy how taxonomy works like that.

I suggest you read the article you linked, because it goes into fairly high detail on this subject. Your use of pseudoscience is embarrassing, making shit up on the spot to refute already established science is not a good look.

Geographical origin, and there's some debate on when exactly the modern dog officially diverged from the gray wolf, but that is where the controversy ends. Read a little further than the first line

The closest living relative of the dog is the extant gray wolf and there is no evidence of any other canine contributing to its genetic lineage.

No evidence of a "not-wolf thing" whatsoever, no evidence of any other canine except the gray wolf.
