* It does not surprise me at all that some of the breeds on the list of most dangerous are not the ones you'd expect. It was a black lab that attacked my daughter. The workers at the hospital told us that the majority of the dog related injuries they treated were from labs, which I did not expect, but know now. * I don't really care one way or the other if someone expressed their dislike over Pits, or any other breed for that matter. However, generally speaking when someone posts a thread looking for support because their 6 year old child was just attacked...that is NOT the place to start a debate about ANYTHING. For crying out loud, in a case like that bite our tongue and take your disagreements and opinions elsewhere. Allow people to read comments of support and comfort that they desperately need instead of having to weed through petty bickering. | Your absolutely 100% right and I apologize for my post. I should have ignored the comments and not said I did not think it was right to post an opinion. I contributed to that thread and I feel awful |
