People who leave their kids alone with dogs, especially pitbulls

[Duggie]

No breed is 100% safe or dangerous.

A pit will kill/maim a person better than a shih tzu will 100 % of the time though.

This. As someone who has trained dobermans and some gun dogs, a well trained dog of course will be far far less likely to attack a child or another human, but in no situation regardless of training and circumstances will the potential of this happening be 0%. As a dog lover myself the response from the owners of the dog that bites a child are always the same. They were trained and around little Suzanne all the time. Means jack ****, just lowers the chances of an attack, never means there is no chance

I always get into this debate with dog fanatics who swear their dog wouldn't hurt a fly... especially pitbulls.

well here you go



I love dogs and I have my own, but I would never let them near a child, most especially pitbulls.

You should be at least around a certain age to handle big dog breeds. You need to assert leadership, understand dogs and know what you're doing.

Whenever I see people leave their little kids or toddlers alone with a big dog it enfuriates me. How ****** can you be.

They love the dog more than the children

I'm almost 100% certain my dogs would never harm me. I've been with them every step all the way from the beginning.

I've always been strong and disciplined and they know they can trust me. Everytime they misbehave or step out of line I check them right away and they follow everything I do. I've proven to them over and over that i'm a strong capable leader and provider since their first memories.

I've protected them when they were scared and they know I would never hurt them. My dogs have never once showed any sign of aggression towards me and I feel like they would hurt themselves before they hurt me. They are absolutely loyal.

That said, just because they're that way with me, I don't know how the **** they're going to act with someone else, and I damn sure don't trust them with kids. Especially a kid who doesn't understand dogs and dog signals and dog behavior.

If you start to show a dangerous dog weakness they're going to smell that weakness like blood and start clawing at it. If you run or inadvertantly challenge a strong dog or invade their boundary or try take something they have claimed, they will fight for it.

Oh and the number 1 reason I think my dogs will never harm me, is because they know i'm the big dlck alpha lol

If they step out of line in anyway, i show them that I am harder than they will ever be, because it's true.

No dog under my care has ever challenged me, but if they did, they will either get a bat to the head, a knife in their stomach or a bullet in their spine.

If I were a parent, I wouldn't want anything deadly in the place.
