Never Truer Spoken Words, Said by Those Who Know Facts Behind The Stereotype!

"Leaving a child alone is not safe, regardless of the breed" said by Micaela Myers, spokesperson for Pit Bull Rescue in San Diego.

"The bottom line is that focusing on breed doesn't make communities safer." -Myers

" The Netherlands banned pit bulls 15 years ago, and bite rates were not reduced. England's bite rates have gone up since implementing The Dangerous Dog Attack, which focuses on pit bulls and select other breeds. A study on Prince George's County, Maryland, pit bull ban also showed that public safety was not improved as a result of the ban." -Myers

"IN my opinion, pit bulls are the least likely to be human aggressive. On the whole, you have to do a lot of work to make them aggressive to people." -Sue Frisch, Dessin Animal Shelter Manager

"Every negative incident involving a Pit Bull adds to the breeds reputation and jeopardizes our right to own these great dogs-Keep your Pit Bull out of trouble!" -PBRC.net (Pit Bull Rescue Central)

"Not every pit bull is a bad dog, not every lab is a good dog. You see some wonderful poodles walking down the sidewalk that will just eat your arm off if you stick your hand out." -Patsy Beeker, Program Director, Kitty City


There you have it, very few quotes of millions, from other people who know the TRUTH behind the stereotype. These words are spoken from people who work with pitbulls on a regular basis, people who own pits themselves, people who just want to help the breed and much much more. I can't stress it enough, don't judge a book by what you've heard, because the truth is, you don't know the truth!!
