I'm not sure what to believe, but i heard that "pitbull" isn't really a breed of dog, and rather a label applied to any dog that was trained to fight. So fighting dogs fight. No surprise there. But this certainly makes it sound like it's not the dogs to blame for the injuries, but the POS humans who trained them to fight.

    The American pitbull is a breed, though there are others.

    The dogs are notorious for their violence and literally were bred to fight. If you think a Labrador retriever is naturally a good retriever because it's been bred for those traits it's not exactly hard to see how a dog bred for generations to literally kill for sport might be problematic.
