We are fortunate enough that our black lab/pit mix looks so much like a lab that we can just say she's a lab for our homeowners.

This isn't her but the dog in the pic is pretty much a clone.

I would problably stand in the yard with my hand on my sidearm, yes I have my permit to carry, and give the individual time to capture the animal. But there would still be an altercation. To me it's no different than some one who has say a panther or a bobcat for a pet. They would completely understand my position as they headed back to their house.


If I had a little kid playing in my front yard and some lab starts running toward him I would shoot it as well. I'm not risking the life of my kid (if i had one) on a dog I don't know just because it kills (substantially) less people per year than a pit.

So when a dog that looks like a lab attacks someone the "breed is unknown"? Then we need to throw out all of the statistics about pit bulls mentioned in this thread because you know damn sure they didn't test all of those dogs.


That's a bit of a stretch, but let's be clear. The dog was not recovered at the time of the article. All that was reported was a loose description. Labs don't have white on their chest. It had to be a mix... probably with a pit bull.

Darth, you fricking amuse the shite out of me. You wonder why you don't get alone with anyone on this board and you had to quit for a short while, it's because you honestly think you know every fricking thing and on top of it when you don't have a clue what you are talking about, you still try your best to make a case. Really have made yourself look stupid on this board more times than I can count on two hands

Oh and here

Tell you what, if Labs ever start killing even 10% annually the number of children that Pits kill, I'll agree with this absurd reach you're trying to pass off as a valid point about Labs.

Poor hysterical bastard. I get along with folks just fine. But keep deflecting. It makes you look good and dumb.

I have nothing to deflect, you are the one that takes these over sensationalized media stories and starts regurgitating the talking points of "thy are ticking time bombs that will be loving pets one moment but the next kill you for no reason yada yada yada"

I have never had a pit turn and have known hundreds of pits and have never heard of one of those "turning", so I'd like to say that the odds that fido is a ticking time bomb is pretty outlandish.

Actually the dog was recovered at the time of the article, as the title points out. It was a lab mix, but I can guarantee it wasn't mixed with a PB or else the title would have been: Woman killed by Pit Bull

"This dog has never shown any aggression before." It was later revealed that the dog had killed the family's Siberian husky four months earlier. The pit bull had been neutered just days before killing Betty Todd in hopes of lowering its aggression


From the same site. The owner stated that, then later it was found to be a lie. So, how many others were lies? We don't know.

Family members say the dogs have never attacked anyone before. "They never been no real viscous dog they never bit nobody they never jumped on nobody around here," said Mayze.


I have never been one for government intervention, but it is time for some attempt to protect people and children from the ignorance of many of the Pit Bull owners. They always say "the dog never bit anybody". Yet here we are again with a dead child and a dumbass with a Pit Bull!!!

Do you actually expect the owners to say, I know I fight my dog and it is vicious, but it wouldn't hurt anybody?

A few days ago I read the bios of people killed on dogsbite.org


You do realize that dogsbite.org is run by someone allegedly attacked by a pit bull that created the site as an anti-pit bull site. That is like me posting "facts" from this site.

Both sites have an agenda and aren't posting neutral facts.

Not a single one of my friends or family members has every owned a "pit" (money pits notwithstanding). Of course, most of us are college educated and we don't buy dogs for $50 from the Walmart parking lot.

The only pit bulls I've ever experienced are the aggressive assholes at the dog park. A majority of the dog fights in dog parks are a results of aggressive pit bulls.

What kind of life are you living, man?

I know it goes against my political views, but I'd be for more regulation by the government. Maybe have the owners having to register the dog, pass some kinda test showing you have the knowledge to raise the dog properly. Maybe even carry some sorta insurance. This may actually help the breed by forcing people to become responsible owners or making it where only responsible owners will even take the time to have the breed. Because really deep down I don't think it's the entire breed that is the problem. I do think there are lineages that have had bad bred into them more recent and incest that has caused some problem pits.


And then you have a whole another line of idiots like Darth that spews info like he knows what he is talking about that doesn't do anyone any good

If there was a way to do this that would be amazing, but there is no way to implement/enforce it.

Does Wiki have an agenda? Notice a common theme? The evidence speaks for itself.

Note: every death is cited in the details.

I love these assumptions you make


I guess ALL pit owners are lucky to have a HS diploma and buy their dogs for $50 from Walmart parking lots. Why couldn't it be a Target?

Some of you people amaze me with how black and white y'all's outlook on things are
