My face was mauled by a pit, he wasnt a drug guarding or mistreated dog, just snapped and atempted to eat my face. i was bit at 4 and im 21 and sill have a very noticable scar. I love dogs but I must admit I am un easy around pits.
Again, bad breeding. Any inbred dog from a disreputable breeder could do that. It just is more likely to end up in serious damage when it is a powerful breed. Some inbred chihuahua snaps and rips out your achilles tendon. A bad pit or rotty loses it and bye-bye throat.
You never know why a dog will bite. I was bitten at about 12 years of age by a mutt that walked up to me and wanted to be petted. I leaned over and it jumped up and bit my left thigh (good thing I'm a "rightie"). Turned out the year before some b**** ran it over, got out of her car all pissed off about her schedule getting thrown off by the dog and proceeded to beat it. From then on pretty much whenever somebody towered over the dog and reached down at it, it fear bit them. Would have been nice to be told that earlier...
