    Sorry, just stumbled onto this community. Is the goal to ban ownership of pitbulls, thus allowing them to evolve in nature? Or to eradicate the breed?

      The goal is to stop the sale and breeding of pitbulls to have them live to old age to prevent future attacks.

        Pitbulls are the sweetest dogs I’ve ever had the pleasure of owning, sitting, or interacting with. The sale and breeding of any and all animals should be stopped- not just pitbulls.

        Don’t forget the (in)healthy amount of racism too.

Dog bite severity varies by the breed of dog, and studies have found that pit bull–type dogs have both a high rate of reported bites and a high rate of severe injuries, compared to other non–pit bull–type dogs.

Pit bull–type dogs are extensively used in the United States for dogfighting, a practice that has continued despite being outlawed. Several nations and jurisdictions restrict the ownership of pit bull–type dogs through breed-specific legislation.

Rules:

  1. Keep it civil.

  2. No advocating for violence.

  3. The sole goal for this comm is to ban pit bulls from every jurisdiction and to treat the remaining ones with respect while every caretaker follows the required safety precautions to keep everyone safe. Dog breeds with documented health issues should also be stopped from being forcibly bred into this world.

  4. No pit bull advocate gaslighting. Though good faith debates are allowed.

Dogsbite.org is routinely slandered by the pro-pit lobby, but the site is informative and its data collection procedures are transparent and well-documented.
