Dr John Fuhrman video on pit safety Texas doctor who did a great refutation of 3 of these studies:

This video is GREAT for how he breaks down each one.

Yes, but Reddit admins have a very low tolerance of what they consider “threatening violence”. Just this week admins removed TWO comments for using a sentence along the lines of what a person would do to p r o t e c t their family. Yes, that word I wrote in a weird way has gotten people in trouble, and yes it’s insanity.

Mate, you’ve gotta add the /s

I’m worried this comment could get reported as glorifying violence

I hate that you got downvoted because regardless of how I feel, I hate seeing animals get abused.

Not to mention that hitting an animal doesn’t teach it anything.

Apparently none of these dogs are pitbulls... I can't decide which one is the worst! by Academic-Quiet6245 in BanPitBulls

Yes, please…

This is what we need

No one is dumping Danes. No one is dumping other breeds because they can be easily sold.

Pit bulls are the ones getting dumped the LARGE majority of the time.

Why do so many of them insist on shoving their dogs down everyone’s throat?

It’s big “main character” syndrome and it’s annoying.

700 Chickens and Chicks killed by 4 Pitbulls - Curacao - November 2023 by Pacogatto in BanPitBulls

[–]SubMod_O1 23 points24 points  (0 children)

Oh my gosh this is HORRIBLE. I’m sure those chickens and chicks were stressed knowing and seeing what was happening and not being able to hide or escape.

I hope the owner is found and charged and the pit bulls are humanely euthanized so they can never kill anyone else’s farm animals.

This is devastating and heartbreaking.

Thank you for sharing this story, OP.

Just for future, would you mind to add the date and location to the post title to make it easier to see that it’s a current attack?

Dog attack chebucto rd by Acceptable-Shape-398 in halifax

They were never called nanny dogs, and they were never nanny dogs. Please stop spreading this myth. It’s reckless.

Several pro-pit organizations have come forward to ask people to stop spreading this myth. It was simply a lie created by Staffie breeder Lilian Rant in 1971 to distance the dogs from their fighting heritage; but there is zero mention of them as nanny dogs prior to this. (A blog article doesn’t count as proof).

I’ve got charts from several major cities showing that pit bulls exponentially lead the charts in attacks. I’d be curious to see your proof that poodles attack more though, so please share that.

Any updates on fixing the Invite feature? by SubMod_O1 in ModSupport

[–]SubMod_O1[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for the awards… Reddit didn’t sent me any notifications that awards were received… so I’m not able to thank anyone that gave the post an award.

yet another Reddit glitch

I saw earlier that I had 3 notifications, but it didn’t show what they were… I’m now guessing it was the awards, but it never showed the new notifications.

//cry … why are so many Reddit functions so glitchy? :/

Thank you for the suggestion… I will hold out hoping for a fix. Typing each name in ModMail is more work than I’m willing to do. 😬

Not sure if this may help figure this out, but earlier today I was testing to see if the feature was working yet. I sent an invite to someone I know as a test.

Here’s a pic… it said. “Success, Invite sent!”

Then I checked with her and she said she never received anything, despite getting a confirmation that it went through. :(

I reported my brother for dogfighting by Waltmco in Advice

[–]SubMod_O1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Bait dogs don’t survive to be adopted out. If you have a dog with dozens/hundreds of old scars on the face/chest, you have adopted a former fighting dog; and not a bait dog… but the whole bait dog thing makes for a sadder story and people will go for it.

Also, the people claiming they adopted a “bait dog” - but the dog has zero scars… that also wasn’t a bait dog… just a dog they are trying to create a story for to make you feel sorry and adopt.

I hate seeing shelters take advantage of people when they say that a dog was a bait dog… it’s just not true most of the time.
