General   (General discussion, talk about anything.)

Anything that resembles a Pit Bull should be either, taken off the streets altogether, or be made to wear muzzles at all times except when they're eating.

Pit Bulls are one of the four on the Dangerous Dogs List in this country and are banned, as are any dog bred with one, but it would take a vet to establish if an American Bull Dog is part Pit Bull through DNA.

I'm terrified of dogs but, for some reason, they seem to like me, so I've been trying to get over my phobia. However, if I see a Staffie, or anything that looks like one, I steer well clear.

Pit Bulls are not banned in America, but most insurance companies won't give household insurance to those that own them. Time after time we hear of them ripping people to shreds, maiming babies, and even killing some, so that's understandable.

Having said that, ALL dogs can potentially cause serious injury as they're descended from the wolf way back in time, so I think all large dogs should be muzzled in public, and I don't care how "soft" they are.
