Here's the deal... Pitbull's have a bad rep because some OWNER's have f-ed the breed's reputation because they trained them to be aggressive and some used them in dog fights. Lot's of dogs snap and attack people; often from abuse. But media focuses on Pitbulls because it gets all the ratings. Look at that boy who was attacked by some terrier/lab mix dog, the boy was then saved by his cat. No one is sensationalizing that breed of dog, screaming "All crossed lab/terriers must be banned and killed!" No! Of course not because then all mixed breeds would be gone. Stop and look at the whole picture of a dog bite story before you judge a whole breed based on an isolated incident. —Elephants are gray, not all gray things are elephants
