I have had a couple of pits and would own another. I believe, and have read things to back it up, that a pit is not anymore likely to attack a human than any other dog - they just do more damage. One of the problems with pits is their popularity, there are just so many of them thanks to back yard breeders. Sure there are going to be more pit bites- pits outnumber many other kinds of dogs, and unfortunately unresponsible thug types are attracted to them. Another problem is the media - they couldn't tell the difference between a pit, a boxer, or a rot. I LMAO when a local news program was reporting a vicious pit attack and they showed a pic of some long haired dog.
