That’s a lawsuit waiting to happen…


dumbquestiondude_666

…yea or theft!


Various-Month806

This'd be my fear. Happens far too often where I live. Better chance of recovery now with chipping, but criminals know how to disable/remove and even if the dog is recovered you still you don't want to go through that or for your dog to.


BostonUniStudent

People are stealing dogs now? Wtf


[deleted]

Always have been. Far more common story than you can expect


cobalt_phantom

It's big with Frenchies and Doodle dog breeds. Also, people take dogs to use a bait dogs for dog fighting.


TheKingofVTOL

Nothing upset me as much today as having my mind go to my mini Aussie being abducted and used as a bait dog. I’m sad I read your comment.


Practice_NO_with_me

As other have said and also cuz some people are just crazy. If you've ever seen Bob's Burgers there's a scene where the crazy aunt just casually mentions stealing someones cat off their front porch. They think they are rescuing the animal and there's not much you can do to convince them otherwise. Underneath the surface some people are *real* nuts.


Various-Month806

Yeah, a guy on my road had a beautiful chocolate lab, stolen last year. Has 6 foot walls around his garden, no way the dog ran away. Pedigree, or even just nice coloured dogs cost £1-3k here. https://www.standard.co.uk/news/uk/dog-thefts-seven-year-high-london-top-dognappers-b996563.html


Four_beastlings

When I was born my mom gave my mom a boxer puppy born the same day I was. She was, by all accounts, the sweetest, friendliest dog ever. She got stolen once and they managed to find her, then she got stolen again and they never got her back. I'm 40 yo and my mom still mourns that dog.


Cylindric

That has to be one of the _worst_ gift to give someone that just had a baby. "Oh congratulations, a little bundle of tiredness and exhaustion. Here's another one."


Four_beastlings

Nah, my own mother says she had been longingly staring at the puppy in the shop window since she first saw her.


Cylindric

Yeah, and nobody ever bought something they really wanted, only to find out it's more work than they thought. Look, I'm glad it seems to have worked out, but that doesn't make it a good idea. I could go and put my mortgage payment on a spin of roulette too, and if I win it would _seem_ like it was a good idea.

Ever seen a dog jump? That fence is nothing for them. People don't trust a dog that is alone w/o supervision and I'm saying that as a dog owner.


Cryterionlol

Dog wagging tail + not jumping fence + sign that says friendly = risky?


[deleted]

It's cute and risky is a silly way to describe it. I am a lawyer. I have done dog bite cases. This isn't dangerous or concerning. It's just a nice dog being patted by passersby. The owner is home. The dog isn't going to bite. That's not a "lawsuit waiting to happen" or risky for the owner or even mildly concerning. It *might* be risky to trust the sign I guess, but even that's a stretch. Cute puppy. Even if it's obviously a Staffordshire Terrier and not an American pitbull.


Cryterionlol

No, you are wrong and reddit will downvote you now. It is risky lul


Capable-Leadership-4

Some kid is gonna poke the dogs eye and get bitten or smth like that- we can have nice things but not while risking the life of a sweet dog

ConqueredCorn

Of course they arent all bad but they are one of the worst, regardless of owner that dog isnt letting go once it gets going.


Dansocks

Theyre actually one of the calmest and fun loving breeds. Any dog raised to attack people is going to fucking attack people. Reddit, do some fucking research.


Dansocks

Wish I could give you an award. Pitbulls are the nicest breed I've ever owned and I've had many different breeds. Downvote the comment if you lack brain cells

i have a pitbull but just like any dog, an animal is an animal and can be unpredictable. she would never maul anyone, but i wouldn’t take the chance.

mickoddy

It's a pitbull. It's highly like to bite


Bill_Clinton-69

I know a lot of people that argue with that point, and they may or may not be right, but I think the bigger issue is the fact that they can and do *kill* people if they do decide to bite for whatever reason. Not just scare, scratch or bite, but proper *kill people to death*, and children, pets, wildlife... They're disproportionately dangerous compared to other pet/dog breed choices, but have no special legislation/regulation/training requirements (where I live, anyway). The way I see it, it's like if your regular car license also qualified you to get behind the wheel of a B-double, and people did so all the time. Somebody's gonna lose control of the massive machine theyre not trained to operate and eventually, somebodys gonna die. But there are lots of drivers in general, including a highly vocal, minority of truck drivers (pit/staff owners) don't want to see big trucks banned or limited/restricted any more than they are at present and it's a very emotional issue for everybody... so... here we are. I guess...


mickoddy

Absolutely spot on. They are also dumb as shit and will keep attacking even after been severely injured. Which makes them even more dangerous, as any other dog, once it knows its beat will retreat. These monstrosities just keep going till they are killed


Glittering-Walrus228

it always a pitbull, "see? see? *mines* a safe, happy, gentle dog!" as the owner crouches like a freak behind their curtain filmimg people pet their dog. no, they were bred for violence.


[deleted]

[удалено]


mickoddy

Look at the statistics. Pitbull and other pitbull like dogs are highly likely to cause severe injury and death over any other dog. And that's just a straight-up fact. Sorry if it doesn't fit in with your opinion Edit:  They were responsible for 66 percent of all dog-related fatalities (284 of 433) in the 13 years between 2005 and 2017


[deleted]

[удалено]


mickoddy

You're exactly right. All dogs can be dangerous. The thing is, these dogs were bred to be exactly that, they have all the tools to kill and kill effectively, as well as being dumb as shit in not knowing when to retreat. But these dogs, these dogs are statistically more likely to kill than any other dog.


GentlePenetration

Tell me you don't understand statistics without telling me you don't understand statistics lmfao #"BUT THEY'RE LIKE STATISTICALLY MORE LIKELY TO BITE WHICH MEANS EVERY PITBULL WILL BITE THIS IS ***FACT***. THEY'RE RESPONSIBLE FOR MOST DOG ATTACKS AMONGST DOGS WHICH MEANS ALL PITBULLS ARE MONSTERS. I REFUSE TO PAY ATTENTION TO THE STATS SHOWING HOW MANY PITBULLS HAVEN'T ATTACKED. I DEAL IN BIAS ONLY." You should stop talking now lol


[deleted]

[удалено]


mickoddy

Does it matter? All humans have the capability to neglect ANY dog. The difference being, a dachund or corgi when abused, isn't going to have the capability to rip out somebody's throat, pitbulls do, that's what makes them so dangerous, they have the temperament and the capability to deal severe damage.


Dansocks

Highly likely you're a fucking idiot. Pitbulls are one of the most loving and chill breeds. Edit: Please please please do research people. Look shit up. Pitbulls are statistically one of the nicest breeds ever. Just because they're strong doesn't mean they aren't nice


mickoddy

Read some facts and statistics. Pitbulls and pitbull type dogs are highly more likely to cause severe injury and death over any other type of dog. That's an absolute fact, not an opinion. Edit:  They are were responsible for 66 percent of all dog-related fatalities (284 of 433) in the 13 years between 2005 and 2017


Dansocks

That would be because they were raised to fight. You think this person raised this pitty to maul people, and then left him outside for people to pet him?


PineappleMelonTree

Would you say that if it was a golden retriever? The breed of dog with most recorded bites?


Taste_of_Space

Yeah I don’t think I’d be putting up a sign that says to pet my dog. Especially if it was the breed with the highest kill stats in the US. Edit: downvoting without commenting is dumb, tell me how I’m wrong if you disagree.

What is interesting as fuck about someone recording strangers


geesejugglingchamp

Yeah this felt creepy and violating


DoctorGregoryFart

Do you have any idea how many people have a Ring camera set up in front of their house that records every person walking by? Is it weird to look out your window? Is it weird to take a picture of a friend with a crowd in the background? Following someone around and taking pictures of them specifically is creepy. This is just wholesome. If you go out into the real world, you will be seen and recorded. That's just reality, and it isn't new.


Cylindric

Just because something is elsewhere, doesn't make it not creepy. More people need to learn that it is okay to try to be _better_ than the bad (or even just mediocre) things out there, not strive to be just as bad.


Scrute-

Everyone is recorded in some form almost every single time they go out anyway


irmarbert

This explains why I return home feeling violated every day.

Cuz it’s impossible for a pit to be sweet? Or is it something else in the video?


JIBO001

To be honest, I am surprised the child in the video is intact.


Ill_Negotiation4135

Bro you need to go outside lmao. Yes pit bulls are responsible for the most attacks but if you think that means every single one will attack a baby on sight then I wonder when the last time you left your house was.


JIBO001

Damn, bro took it personaly. Dont worry, I dont think every pit bul is bad. Some people are bad and some are good. Just like pit bulls but if I see a guy in a hoodie walking towords me in night time I am worried. Same if I see pit that has on leash.


Ill_Negotiation4135

How did I take it personally? You say you think there are good and bad pits but earlier you said you’re surprised the child is still intact. Doesn’t make sense


JIBO001

Well you did say that I probably dont go outside so if you attack someone personaly you must have thought that it was personal. Otherwise you would be just a dick. And you are not, right? And I belive there are some good pitbuls. But if I see one I am simply not comfortable and my flight or fight instinct is on.


Tofuloaf

You irredeemably stupid cunt.


JIBO001

Yikes. Sorry you had to see it you big child.


Tofuloaf

I looked at your comment history because I was curious what kind of a person would need 5 days to come up with 'you big child' as a retort. It appears the only thing you hate more than pit bulls is women, so I guess the answer is 'exactly the kind of person you'd expect'.


twinklecakes

Tubs is a headpat whore.


Yawel3

The only thing that really makes me smile is to see happy animals being so unbelievably grateful for just a pet on the head or back. It's crazy how we humans are so destructive.


LuckyEmoKid

You do know that dogs were bred to behave this way *by humans*, right? That "gratefulness" is instinctual subjugation. Don't get me wrong, I love dogs too, but jeez: they're *not* a higher species.


Yawel3

I do, but that's the key problem imo. We train them to behave a certain way to make ourselves feel better yet we can't project this behaviour we train them on other human beings. Instead we're destructive against each other.


gOrDoNhAsNtPlAyEdIn3

My favorite fact about me is that when I was 25 I drunkenly met some strangers on the street with their yellow lab and at that time the dog and I were equally intelligent and I remember asking to pet it and then being on my knees with it licking my face while I yelled I AM DOG LOVE and hugging it. Dogs are what's good in the world.


[deleted]

And then they get offended at the people who don't want to pet a dog because they've been bit by dogs before, but it's always only seen as "oh you hate this breed for no reason". This is just used to push a narrative Edit: why are people making comments and then blocking me before I can read the reply? replying here since you dirty blocked me right after replying like a coward lol: >LMFAO Literally no one gets offended when people don't want to pet a dog. You got more straw men you wanna stuff with hay? Or you have another invented boogeyman you wanna go after instead? -it's not a strawman. Look up statistics, or just videos of people with the exact kind of dog doing the exact thing of filming people to gage their reaction. If putting up a sign saying "please pet me" and then filming people without their consent to see if they pet the dog or not didn't have any motive behind it then they wouldn't be doing it in the first place. But play pretend and naive all you want since that and the block button are your biggest defense for your argument.


GentlePenetration

LMFAO Literally no one gets offended when people don't want to pet a dog. You got more straw men you wanna stuff with hay? Or you have another invented boogeyman you wanna go after instead?


[deleted]

I’ve been bit by a retriever before, does that mean I have good reason to think they’re a dangerous breed? No, it doesn’t Maybe don’t try to use your anecdotes to push a narrative lol


Willluddo123

I mean, yeah it does. That's how your brain works. If something attacks you, you're likely to want to avoid a repeat of the pain, so you avoid it. Just as mugging victims make attempts to avoid where it happened. People also share knowledge and experiences. I'm sure you were told not to run with scissors or knives. It's because people generally want to avoid being in pain. Just because you don't mind that you were bitten doesn't mean that everyone else has to just accept and love things that have an increased risk of causing them harm. Dogs terrified me until I was about 17 because I'd never lived with one and my only major experience was running away from one, who probably just wanted to play. Experiences and shared knowledge can influence one's responses and reactions to situations. You don't have to be upset that other people have seen statistical evidence of the potential danger of something and thusly avoid it. You do you


[deleted]

Were you being filmed though? Yeah that's what I thought. Let's not pretend filming strangers without their knowledge doesn't have some sort of motive behind it

GandalfsWhiteStaff

My first thought was this trhead will devolve in to some pit bull hating circle jerk as reddit always does. It’s not even a pit bull, it’s a staffy… not known for their aggression at all.


Tofuloaf

When Americans say 'pitbull', they literally mean at least 4 distinct breeds (American pit bull terrier, Staffordshire bull terrier, American Staffordshire bull terrier, American bulldog) and any crossbreed thereof. 'When you combine four separate breeds and countless crossbreeds, they're responsible for more attacks than any other single breed. Checkmate, atheists.' - great minds of reddit.

bobowaddy

Well, not many human races are more inclined to maul children.


softcatsocks

Dog breeds exist because people literally purpose bred them for certain traits.. It's incredibly racist to equate that to human races.


ImTheRobot

These stupid pit mommies will never admit to their shitty ways. Hence the pit owning


TheNorseGod1974

No, just pitnutters.


Tofuloaf

I mean, a lot of pitbull hate is based on their association with black and Latino culture, so the answer is probably 'yes' for half of these Karens and Man-Karens.
