      Honestly I agree, dog genetics give breeds an overall average trait, but dog aggression, or human aggression is a trait many breeds carry. It's the size of a dog, situational awareness, inexperience, abuse, lack of leadership, etc that create problems. That being said, I've never met a evil dog (barring neurologic ailments)...people I can't say the same about lol. People kill more "people & animals combined", we are the answer to fix the problems..its unfortunate. We need better vetting with certain breeds to go with proper owners,..responsible owners vastly reduce problems. As a matter of fact responsible humans have less problems in all aspects of life. Sorry about the tangent.

    Ah, heart of my heart , Billy. I’m not a saccharine knee jerk animal defender, but it has been shown time after time that pit bulls are by nature loving, calm dogs, when left to grow as intended. It is their warped human owners who train them to be vicious, by means of torture they call training. Make fun of them, cast the penetrating eye of comedy on their heinous acts. Ask: who would need to do that?

But their actual behavior is very gentle, not quite saint Bernard but still absolute sweethearts if properly socialized, and great with their owners even without, assuming they're treated well. They also tend to be great with kids, especially if you bring them up together, they're very gentle with them and extremely protective of them as well.

I have actively avoided all urban and suburban areas to the best of my ability for my entire life, so the best I can do there is to agree that nobody with the space to properly care for a large dog breed shouldn't have large dogs. But that also goes back to the very first comment that this whole conversation has taken place under. Pits are naturally loving and calm dogs if left to grow as intended. No dog is meant to live in a large urban area where it is constantly coming into contact with people and animals it isn't familiar with. And then you have the large number of people who intentionally raise aggressive dogs.

    Pitbulls are the most caring and tender dogs if they are raised by people who love them and take good care of them. There are no dogs that are born bad. It's bad people who buy them and train them to be that. If anyone should get shot there, it's the animal on the other end of the leash, not the poor dog. That certain kind of people would train any living creatures to become dangerous, regardless of the race or specie.
