Classic example here that any dog can attack. Here one owner describes her Labs as the most docile dogs you could ever know. But for me personally I wouldn't own a lab. I have worked with dogs for many many years & often see uncontrollable Labrador's. People assume they are getting a smart, friendly wonderful breed from a Lab. BUT fail to realise ALL dogs need to learn how to appropriately behave. I know of 3 labs that I wouldn't trust around my kids or other dogs for that matter. They are not an aggressive breed but with out the right training they can be stupid & pushy. 1 of this 3 was good with people BUT had no idea how to obay & walk on a lead properly. Lovely owner but yeah, treated her like a person so in turn she walked all over him. She also was starting to become aggressive with other dogs when she stayed. She thought she was Queen bee.. The other 2 were from another family. I was scared of those two, they were big, strong & would use that to their advantage. Again another example of "good breed gone wrong" due to stupid owners.
As for getting rid of your pitbull..... I guess for the time being just do your best to treat him right, make sure he is desexed (even if he is only a few months old go get him done. There really isn't a need to wait till 6 months, its just recommended but it can be done) & wait & see if the laws change. Do the right thing now to avoid the wrong thing happening later.
