[Read more letters about this article: Here]This whole "it's not the breed, it's the owner" schitck is only partly true. Sure, the way you treat your dog affects its temperment, but genetics and breeding also factor heavily into the equation, and no amount of hand-waving can change that.
My partner works in animal law enforcement. The number of stories he and his co-workers have about good pits gone bad would scare the living shit out of you. They can literally go from tail wagging to full-on attack mode and right back without a moment's notice. It may be a relatively rare event, but the consequences can be grim. Remember, they're animals; they simply are not capable of rational thought.
