Yes, dog fighting took place in a pit. Between 2 dogs. They were never bred to fight or attack humans. 

 

Many dog breeds have been bred to fight/kill other animals. Be that bears, boar, foxes or whatever. It is not unique to the PitBull. 

Yes but the attacks are way out of proportion to their population.

In the States, Pit Bulls are just status symbols for low IQ ghetto-dwellers.

I truly hope you are being ironic.

 

Of course.  He's a troll user so he's saying something that he knows bothers people.

They were bred to kill, and that's what they do.  🤷‍♂️

Unfortunately, Thai attitudes to dog ownership often are not compatible with powerful dogs (caging them, little/no exercise, disciplining them with a stick etc.). Educating owners is the answer. I don't think I've ever seen a dog on a lead outside Bangkok. Mine stays on an extendable lead even when being exercised on our private land, just in case any local mutts wander over and attack him. Responsible ownership is key. 

 

Agreed and being both practical and realistic, there is zero hope of a "responsible ownership" culture developing in Thailand in the foreseeable future.

 

Ergo : potentially dangerous dog breeds presenting a higher public risk should be banned in Thailand.

Yep - readers can do a Google but from what I remember the "league table" for dog fatalities in the US is something like :

 

Pit Bull "type" : >60%+

Rottweiler : 10%

All other breeds : <30%

 

I've mentioned before I used to have a Jack Russell. All Terriers are, well, Terriers....feisty, determined and with a major attacking instinct that is difficult to re-set when triggered.

I am sure this behavioural trait is one of the reasons Pit Bull Terriers top the list, along of course, with their sheer physical size and bite strength.

Shoot the dog and jail the owner. 
 

shoot the owner for being such an uneducated idiot and ignoring previous attacks,  and jail the dog.

But this is Thailand and not the USA and is no way comparable.

There is a reason that these dogs are banned in many countries. They are aggressive and uncontrollable.

Pray harder.

Kill it and all the other animals of this breed.

Some people just never learn.

This is a lethal animal; it is not a pet!

I’m a believer that most dogs are as good as they are treated. However, Pit Bulls have too many strikes against them that eliminates this premise. My wife and I have had an encounter with two loose Pit Bulls that attacked our leashed dog. I don’t have animosity towards the breed, but believe the risks of ownership overshadows the rewards.

I tend to disagree.

Soi dogs have their own hierarchy and are not caged and mistreated. They can expend the energy that every dog needs to.

Soi dogs are easy to deal with, by walkers, joggers and cyclists... it can't just be me or my area where this is no problem if you show the right body language. A pitbull is just another dog, and would behave so in a gang of soi dogs. I hope!

Wow I've  heard it all now !!!!!!  is all i can say
