I have been around pitbulls/rotweilers/chows/dobermans all my life! We had a beautiful rottie that was a big baby to us...he pinned my son down when he was 4yrs old. Scared me to death. I had a chow turn on me...I've been literally chased by pitbulls in our neighborhood.
All the news stories lately involve these breeds. We had a story out of Phoenix, a female police officer and her husband who was also a police officer had a baby 3wks old. Their chow killed their baby. One bite to the head!
Everyone that has a trained dogs of these breeds gets offended when we fear these breeds. How can we not!!! It's always on the news... Irresponsible dog owners have these breeds and aren't willing to take responsibility when their dogs attack!
We had a woman at our children's bus stop who was attacked by a pitbull. She wrapped her arms around the kids and took the blunt of the attack. The town 20miles away from us had a pitbull attack a little girl in her front yard and the little girl was killed. They now have laws in place to outlaw pitbulls. The people who own them can have them but they pay a hefty price to license them. When is it gonna stop??? My husbands' best friend had a rottie and it went into the neighbors doggie door and killed their little dog! It had to be put to sleep.
I guess where I'm getting at....is these breeds are dangerous.
