Finding the Middle Ground
ОглавлениеNo more controversial family of dogs exists today than the Pit Bull. On one side you have Pit Bull owners and lovers who think they are angels on four legs. They love their dogs like their children and are justifiably upset when they feel Pit Bull haters may threaten them. On the other side you have Pit Bull victims and haters who think they are demons on four legs. Some have been victims of Pit Bull attacks and are justifiably frightened of them and want the breed to be banned.
The truth is in the middle. No family of dogs comes close to being responsible for as many deaths as the Pit Bull has been. These deaths include human and canine family members and human and canine strangers. The attacks are committed by both well-raised and poorly raised Pit Bulls. But that doesn’t mean every Pit Bull is a mauler. In fact, most go through their entire lives being perfectly peaceful.
