10 Stereotypes About Pit Bulls That Are Just. Dead. Wrong.

I'd rather be a "pit bull apologist" than a monster who euthanizes innocent dogs for looking like pits (whether they actually are or not), separating families or leaving them homeless due to pit bull discrimination, and endorsing useless breed bans which only feed mass hysteria and do nothing to protect anyone.

Thank goodness for people like this landlord who gives homes to families with pits. ;;

Any problems pit bulls have is because asshole humans bred them to be aggressive because they used them in dog fights.

Ah man, I don't have any experience with pibbles but pretty much everything in the article is equally applicable to staffies. Bull terriers make great pets when they're taught proper canine manners (like every other breed out there) and they're stupid cute.

After reading the article...are breed specific laws in the US as amazingly arbitrary as the ones in the UK? Here we assess whether a dog's okay or not based almost entirely on their appearance and how close they are to the profile of the banned 'types' of dog. Behavior, past or present, is never taken into account. :|

We can't even quell our own human racism, so the thought that we could stop dog racism is honestly this side of ludicrous. People are assholes.

And I say this first-hand, as my wife has a small pibble/lab mutt that is basically a service dog, and now our apartment complex has gotten ableist as fuck on top of the dog racism - "oh, you obviously don't have a disability" EXCUSE ME SEIZURE DISORDERS ARE OFFICIALLY CLASSIFIED SO FUCK YOU?
