Its hard to say...Ive come across a lot of these dogs that are very sweet.
But you could have the sweetest dog, but when the troubled neigborhood kid comes along and reaches through the fence and sticks his finger in your dogs eye, instincts will be triggered.
There are also a lot of owners who will use their dogs as weapons.
I think people should have a right to have whatever dog they want, but maybe they should be required to haev a permit, possibly a special fence in some areas.

Here in South Texas we see on the news almost everyday a pit bull attack either on a human or it has killed another persons pet.....seems pretty bad to me. It can't just be a lot of bad owners, there's something with that breed. I never hear anything about other breeds killing peoples pets or attacking people walking by their home.....it's crazy! I'm a dog lover but vicious dogs should not be tolerated. They should have really harsh laws about how the animals are kept so they can't get out!! My neighbors have 2 mean pits and they get out all the time and it freaks me out!

i totally disagree. my neighbor has 4 pit bulls and 2 cats, i used to think they were all so dangerous, but they arent, those dogs would lick you to death at the most. it is all in how the owner raises them. and ANY dog can be vicious not just these breeds. those damn ankle biters can be more aggressive than a bully but nobody puts a ban on them, its ridicoulous.

yes some breeds are agressive, with the right person no breed should be banned. With love attention and training they can be very good dogs.

I personally don't think it's fair but I do think they should ban some dog breed owners.
Any kind of dog can turn on you if given cause or maybe in heat. They also could be just as vicious if provoked.

I think something has to be done to stop people owning dangerous dogs. People do own dangerous dogs; they are always one of the breeds you mentioned above and they are only identified when they bite someone or worse, rip a child to pieces. What would you suggest if not banning the breeds?

No! It's mostly about the owners!!! They refuse to educate themselves and do the right thing by the dogs by treating them with respect and direction. Watch the 'Dog Whisper!' Ceaser is fantastic with dogs!

i think it is awful how they do this so what maybeone rottwas treated bad by its owner and leanr tobe a agressive this does not always meen that evry single one is as bad as the other. some humans are criminals and muderes but we dont go banning eachiother do we maybe they could take the onedogand teach it to be better again!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

It is not the dogs fault, it is what they are taught or how they are treated that should be looked at, Why not put down the humans that decided to treat these beautiful animals in such away.
