scorpy,
it's Quadcam logged in under my gf's name on our other pc.
thats exactly it, pitties were bred to be dog/dog aggressive and the human aggressive ones were put down. the media likes to scare people when they do stories on "pitbull attacks"
but you never really get the whole story.
what made me post the pics was a thread i read on another forum about a doberman attack. all the news story said was a doberman had attacked and killed an 8 month old boy in NY.
I just gotta wonder the circumstances of that story, my guess the kid was left alone with the dog, probably pulled on the dog trying to stand up and the dog took it as a threat and bit the kid. I remember when dobies were the dog to fear, they are great dogs and really intelligent matter of fact next dog i get will be a dobie.
i found this list about aggressive breeds:
breeds that are considered potentially aggressive.
* Chow Chows are one-person dogs that tend to bite without any warning. They are also a bit ferocious around strangers, and can be quite a tenacious fighter. So make sure to discipline this dog and set right from wrong, immediately.
* The Papillon is fiercely loyal of their owners - to a fault. They can be quite possessive and standoffish to strangers.
* Old English Sheepdogs are very protective of their owners so they might be aggressive if anybody tends to be too close to its owners.
* A Llasa Apso often gets cranky around kids.
* Rottweilers are extremely protective of their masters.
* Chihuahuas aren't too fond of kids. They'd rather be with adults than play around with tots.
* Toy Poodles bite people and other animals out of self defense. Unfortunately, 'playing' according to you may be perceived as a form of 'attack' to them.
* Dachshunds aren't known for their patience.
* Jack Russell Terriers are feisty creatures who require early training to prevent long-term biting and digging problems.
* Giant Schnauzers are very dominant. They often challenge adults, particularly strangers.
* Cocker Spaniels often suffer from a dangerous genetic disease known as "rage syndrome." This syndrome causes spontaneous violent action against not strangers, but actual family members. Many Spaniels have been put down because of this unwanted behavior. Check with the breeder to ensure your Spaniel is free from this dangerous dog disease.
* The Pekingese isn't all that tolerant of strangers.
* Miniature Pinschers usually have aggression issues because they've got this "big dog-little body" mind set going on.
