The opposite actually. Their bulldog ancestors were bred to be strong and aggressive by humans so they would be useful for bull/bear-baiting and later those were bred with terriers so that they would be strong, aggressive and agile for dog fighting.

It sucks because pitbulls were bred by humans, for human purposes, but now that those purposes are illegal, the aggression and strength weve specifically bred into them have made them inconvenient for modern living (when compared to other breeds) without a lot of TLC.

Close but now quite according to this article. Biased source I know so I'll see if I can find a second one. But this one said pits where bred for "ratting" a competition to see who's dog could kill more rats in a short amount of time. But shortly people turned to dog fighting. Also says they where bred to not be aggressive to humans cause their handlers had to be able to safely enter the pit to well handle their dog before and after.

https://love-a-bull.org/resources/the-history-of-pit-bulls/

Wikipedia article says about the same on the ratting but they called it rat baiting. They dont discern if it came before dog fighting though

Ive had two pits. One is non agressive period the other only got aggressive if people where seemingly aggressive. She never bit anyone though as everyone would always cut it out from fear of her biting. (Usually just people play fighting)

Mine I have now slinks away all sad like if im angry. Often times in just mad at a game and gotta go console her so she doesnt think I'm mad at her

Not the first breed with a bad rap yet none of those breeds shown could top pitbulls for fatalities in the 70s 80s

The fad might be part of the reason but its not the main one lol

How .much of it made public then as said I notes a lot of rot owners kept them as outside dogs which while still happens but is more frowned upon these days

Worth noting as well that the other breeds didn't have to deal with social media or the internet in general back in their "target" years, or how German Shepherds in particular have no doubt had under-reported incidents since forever on account of them being *the* choice for K9 units and we all know how much the police like to broadcast any wrong-doings by their officers.

Though, that breed *does* have some other unflattering moments in history. Like say... starting around the 40s and up through the 60s.

Theres a one in fifty chance I come home from work to a shredded pillow with stuffing all over.

She definitely does it because shes bored and she found something while sitting on the floor. I eventually just got some cheap ass dog pillows from Petco that I put on the couch before I go.

She is a little bitch when she finds shoes though. The other day she knocked open a door and ate a shoe from two pairs Id just bought.

I had to go outside for a minute to calm down after that bullshit.

Pretty sure I know who you're alluding to, but let's not pretend deluded millennials and hipsters that don't know shit about dogs wanting to rescue/rehab a pit aren't a big part of the "fad" as well. There are literally people who specifically adopt pits and only pits because they hate the reputation those things have earned, and that's the cause they've chosen to champion. Blows my mind.

Idiots from all walks of life have pits, ignorance doesn't discriminate

No the shit humans I refer to are typically wanna be tough guys that think it's cool/good to have a mean dog. In my expierence its usually wanna be gang bangers and young white trash types.

Except pretty much every single mainstream Vet and animal welfare group would disagree with you and they have science to back it up (DNA testing has shown that even trained scientists have a hard time positively identifying pit bulls based on just visual identification.) Frankly I'll trust them over a con artist like Merritt Clifton and Colleen Lynn.

https://www.huffpost.com/entry/merritt-clifton-pit-bulls_b_5866176

And even if they WEREN'T Just overly relying on media stats (which are often false) it would still mean 99.99% of all pit bulls never attack.

BSL advocates DO NOT CARE ABOUT SAFETY.

Because only a psycho would want to own a huge monster capably of mauling to death infants, other dogs, cats, children, and even adults. They're doing it as a sign of how tough they are.

I think it's a double negative here. Bad dogs attract bad owners.
Nope. By that logic german shepherds dobermans and rottweilers are inherently evil.

He's obsessed. He looks up pitbull articles daily. And when there aren't any, he posts shit like this.

I don't think TC has posted a single topic that isn't about pitbulls.

Obsessing over it is. Searching it up daily to post it on a dying video game forum is. Posting topics like this when there isn't a topic to post is.

TC is getting PoundGarden levels of bad.
