it's clear who has and who hasn't owned dogs in this thread isn't it. When I read the old 'ahhh yes but these dogs were bred to be aggressive' I just chuckle.

I can tell you the exact breeding process to subdue any aggressive natured dogs and it is done correctly over several generations to tune genetics and with the right training, (which includes a specific training for sound exposure to minimise the chance of a new sound type startling or scaring the dog) the chances of a dog breaking obedience is less than you getting struck by lightning.

In fact during the early 2000's, we were training a 65kg bully and it's owner was very concerned after it showed some food aggression towards his other dog. Turns out the guy had just not properly socialised his dog through the stereotype fear it would be aggressive and low and behold, it didnt like it when his other dog ate their breakfast together. This is nothing to do with the breed, and any dog can inhibit the same natural instinct around food time if not properly socialised.
I have been in contact with many Pit bulls and I have nether felt threatened they have a very similar character to my Jack Russell
I have had some bad experience with Labradors, and I am somewhat scared of rottweilers

All this arguing is all very well, but the point is that cunts have these dogs because they’re cunts.

And cunts turn these dogs into weapons, because they’re cunts. We can’t put down the cunts, so we have to put down the dogs, and ban them.

This reality applies to absolutely everything that can be bought which can be lethal to human beings. Cunts ruin things for the rest of us.

So, the next time a new law or regulation is announced to fuck the cunts over who ruin it for everyone else, support it 100%.

And yes, this should apply to guns as well.

Should we really start putting dogs down because there are cunts? They will start breading dobermans and rottweilers, shall we also put them down then?

Good.

Bring back licensing, make muzzles compulsory for certain breeds when outdoors, and make everything super expensive to discourage all smelly jakey bastards from owning them in the first place.

Nobody should be innocently going about their day only to be savaged by dogs designed for savaging.

Here you go:

When I looked into the data further past the 7 most dangerous breeds, there was a shocking entry.

how hard can a chihuahua bite
Chihuahua’s were responsible for 1 human death between 2005 and 2017.
Yes, that’s right, a Chihuahua was responsible for killing someone between the years 2005 and 2017, with one death logged in the United States!



Also, Chihuahua’s were the breed that came in 4th when it came to bites on children.


Lol, I already knew about this and I knew you were going to find the one instance where a Chihuahua was alleged to be involved in a human killing. I wonder if you read far enough into it to see that two pitbulls were also involved? Coincidence right? But nah I'm sure it was the Chihuahua that did the killing.

It's disingenuous to credit that death to a Chihuahua when there was no evidence it took part in the death of the person in question. It was present along with two pitbulls. But nice try.

They finally looked at stats. Fundamentally, shitbulls have no right to exist.

If politicians actually looked at stats and acted accordingly, instead of being afraid of tackling reality, we could have a much better world.

Fuck, what an embarrassing way to go.
What's embarrassing is that this story was even mentioned when if you read it it goes on to say that the Chihuahua likely wasn't even involved since...y'know there were two pitbulls in the home that in all likelihood did the killing and a chihuahuas bite force is negligible.

You have no evidence to support your hypothesis.

Only years of data showing pitbulls kill people and chihuahuas don't. But I guess on the subject of empirical evidence, I have just as much as you and the article you used debunks your own argument.

Maybe in the future, read past the headline when using a material to make your point?

This is the headline:

Chihuahua Bite Force PSI Pressure & Statistics on Fatalities​


The author links to his source for the data:

I found some data compiled by the excellent DogsBites.org website which compiles annual statistics on dog bites and attacks leading to human fatalities in the United States.

And then the author speculates that because 2 pit bulls live in the house he thinks they could have been involved.

Again, your argument is flaccid and mercurial.

Which argument exactly? I wonder what makes the most sense.

1. A Chihuahua killing an adult all by itself.

2. A Chihuahua, living in a house alongside two pitbulls in which the pitbulls attacked and killed the adult.

I can't take you seriously at all if you believe the former. You're the one arguing that a fucking Chihuahua killed an adult.

For breeds like pit bulls people need to be licensed. Most deaths and severe maulings occur from them and the occasional Rottweiler. These dogs are incredibly powerful and unfortunately they are often owned by people who shouldn't be anywhere near this kind of dog

Wow, one in 12 years in a country of over 300 million. They're clearly as dangerous as XL Bullies. You've convinced me.

I wasn’t trying to convince anyone of that.

I even highlighted the part I was replying to in bold so nobody could misunderstand.

Please show me a single account of a Chihuahua ever killing anyone.

If it's even true, which there's no evidence it is-I looked into this mythical Chihuahua killing, it's actually one in history. But some delusional people don't care about empirical data and only operate on emotion. Clearly Chihuahuas are as or more dangerous than pitbulls/pitbull mixes.

It’s an incredibly sensible viewpoint to make life very difficult for the cunts that ruin society for the rest of us.

The problem as I see it is there needs to be barriers to stop people who never had a dog before getting their hands on pitbulls and them kind of dogs. It’s like someone who never rode a bike buying a Harley and riding straight out on the highway.

statically if they start breeding them specifically for that and the statistics jump, then yes they will get legislated, the fact those breeds have lasted for so long pre XL suggests that there is something that stops them from being anywhere close to as lethal.

The key difference here is that after covid the breed has statically caused more deaths and attacks than any other dog breed despite being woefully underrepresented in the total dog population of the UK, leading to an overall surge in dog attacks. So you legislate and pop them on the list, this is not a new law, its just an amendment to the existing one (Yanks sure love never shutting up about the 2nd amendment so I would think they would understand the concept)

you stick a muzzle on it, have its balls chopped off and it lives out its life, or you don't and it gets put in the furnace, eventually the breed will naturally disappear and if it don't... well we have one more easy arrest reason for organised crime.

There is no magic bullet in fixing people who want to live semi criminal lives and started to kill dogs will not fix it

It is all about training. Actually force people to train their fucking dogs and not just get a breed because they feel a bit lonely and want some company. Dogs are animals, and if not trained are closer to their wild side where they can not be trusted to avoid instinct.

I have a Kelpie and a border collie x husky (technically has 3% rottweiler!), with both my dogs having gone through significant training to ensure they are not aggressive. They are definitely boisterous, and that can be frightening to some with such larger dogs. However I have complete control over them when it comes to public outings, because I trained them so.

The problem with breeds like staffies, rottweilers and bulldogs is they are bred to be hunting dogs. I live in Outback Queensland Australia, we use those breeds for pigging. No one walks them in public because they are killer machines trained for that purpose. They are a literal asset to cockies who hunt the kangaroos and hogs for bounties.

What you get with the current breeds is dickhead obnoxious fuck sticks thinking they are top shit for owning an aggressive breed to make their dicks bigger. What they need is for the dog to actually turn around and bit their cock to show them how dangerous they are with basically no training which is so common. That is the true problem with these breeds.

Also what's with the specific type of woman owning these breeds? The real bimbo, big chested fake titty kind of person with some choice tats?

The country is going down the sit hole and people like you are happy so long as you can have someone else to blame, let's have another have brexit or murder some dogs anything but to take a long look in the mirror to see the real problem

watch you don't pull a muscle from all that stretching your doing here.

The only dog I ever had a bad experience with was my buddies border collie/Australian Shepard. It was totally nuts. It would bite all the time and was completely unpredictable. But, it wasn’t indicative of the whole breed. Just itself. Banning a whole species seems terrible to me. There must be another way. Also, I assume they mean the species going forward. Surely they wouldn’t euthanize existing ones? Just make it illegal to breed more?

we don’t know until the law is passed, but when other dog breeds were banned in UK the existing dogs weren’t culled…they had to be neutered, registered, chipped, and muzzled and leashed everywhere in public

Shoot, I forgot. My big brother had a Siberian Husky... He LOVED that dog! And she was so sweet! Until a DUMBASS hit her with a truck. She was a shadow of her former LIVELY self. She was paralyzed from the waist down and was depressed. When she died, my brother hit the wall and CRACKED it! It was an old school wall made of oak. She really was one of the sweetest animals I've ever known.

I went to a flea market today that had signs posted saying no pitbull or bully XL dogs allowed. At that very same flea market were people selling pitbull and bully XL dogs. Not just puppies, but full grown. I kept wondering how people would get them home if they can't walk through the market with them.

Or, you look at the breed statistics and realise we fucked up in letting the breed go that far without licencing/monitoring. These dogs are machines built for a purpose, trust me I see them out here as pigging dogs and they are fucking ferocious. They are trained to hunt, grab onto a pig and never let go. Fuck, I saw one getting punctured and wouldn't let go.

No one should own a dog breed that is bred for that purpose outside of said purpose. I am all for not killing dogs, I hate the thought of it, but if you are irresponsible and that dog is too far gone in its behaviour (it is incredibly hard to retrain pits and terriers due to tendencies and past trauma) then it needs to be put down and the owner fined or jailed.

Dogs are not some set and forget animal. If you want something simple get a fish. Licence breeds, actually enforce it and that will definitely reduce some of the issues. Inherently though, the breed does have its aggressive tendencies like many larger dogs so it's difficult to just have one solution.

What are the chances that border Collie could overpower and kill you? Honest question.

Just a fashion dog. it seems to be the trendy dog to have no different from the 90s when it was Rottweilers and Dobermans just a trendy dog

Two points:

1. A chihuahua has far fewer inches to exert pressure.
2. Even a child can beat off a chihuahua. They certainly don't take multiple massive blows and still hang on, like shitbulls do.

What about a Chihuahua-Bully XL cross breed?

The issue is that these dogs are lethal if not brought up properly, and even if they are, if they have even the slightest snap can cause immense damage. No one human can control them if you go out of hand (it can take 5+ people to detach one).

So, for breeds like Bully XLs (which are massive if you haven't seen one), there really isn't any other option but to ban them and, frankly, eventually exterminate their breed.

There are plenty of other dogs you can get that are far more docile and/or weak enough to not cause serious harm.
Even if "brought up properly" there are countless stories of dogs that were owned for 5+ years who get startled one day and rip the owners face off or maul their child. It's just not worth it. Too many other other dog breed alternatives. They don't belong in civilized society.

We should reinstate dog licencing. The fact it was ever taken away was fucking stupid.
I'm not against that in principle, but AFAIK they didn't really serve a purpose other than to raise funds. They did nothing to enforce more responsible ownership.

Dog licenses are pointless if all there is to them is a trip to the post office and payment of a fee, as is the case with fishing licenses. There's also the issue of enforcement. I doubt an already overstretched police force that struggles to investigate crimes as it is would be delighted about having to do random dog license checks too.

It's apparent that logic and reason don't belong in this thread with some members.

I bet someone stepped on a Chihuahua and fell down the stairs and died and that's the one death actually attributed to the dog. Even having to argue that a Chihuahua is incapable of killing a human is absurd in its obviousness.

There are no breeds that are inherently "evulz wullf monzters" and deserve to be eradicated.

But, there are breeds that require precise and excellent training in order not to be death machines.

Most dog owners don't realize that almost all dogs *NEED* 4-8 hours of activity aday with their owner, or they develop some issues. Some breeds require 12-14 hours of activity a day in order not to go some what nuts.
