I think we also have to remember that the "pit bull" isn't a set breed. The term "pit bull" can be used for any dog that "appears" to look like one to the person doing the classifying. "Pit Bull" can encompass the American Pit Bull Terrier, American Staffordshire Terrier, Staffordshire Bull Terrier, "game" pit bulls, bully to bully hybrids, pit bull mixed with other non-bully pure bred, and any built, muscular dog with a square head and wrinkles

. I think it is harder to get true numbers on pit bull attacks because it will always include mixes and dogs that aren't actually pit bulls but just have that look.
can you tell the difference?
