I understand that most counties in Florida have banned teh pit bull, and if you have one in a restricted county the fine is $500 per day per dog. I read in a newspaper not too long ago that the University of Florida conducted a five year study of pit bulls, their brains and breed. The study concluded that the pit bull has a "short" in its brain that causes the dog to go off. That is enough proof for me in addition to the articles about them and the attacks that have happened. My mother had a dear friend who bred and raised champion german shepards for over 30 years. This woman had eventually retired and kept several of her dogs. One day she was sitting out by her pool and reached around to pick up her drink and a dog that she had bred and raised like it was one of her kids ripped her from her armpit all the way down her inner arm. She never had another dog.
