Why pit bulls, other ‘dangerous dog’ breeds aren’t banned by elected leaders

- San Antonio City and Bexar County elected officials point to Texas state law as to why they are not able to do more to place stronger restrictions on pit bulls and other so-called “dangerous breeds.”
Owner responsibility doesn't work. Owner accountability does. Make dog's attacks and mauling a felony. Make muzzle and leashes mandatory.
Agreed
That makes no sense most attacks happen in the home, should they be leashed and muzzled in the home??
@@IhatecucumbersanddogsIf your dog bite or kill you at home that is your business. Mandatory muzzle is to protect others but finally owners need to be accountable if their dog bite anyone indoors or out.
@@logic306 the dogs in the home attacks the kids in the home, it’s not the kids dog.
@@Ihatecucumbersanddogs Sucks for those kid for having stupid parents but atleast it's not someone else's children has to paid the price.
I was attacked by dog last year, I almost died 😢I was at hospital,5 days, then stay at home almost 9 months. My legs & abdomen still hurt 😢😥😔
I’m sorry to hear that. But dog attack victims need to speak up.
Oh my goodness. Was it a pit-bull?
@@mayyi That is awful. I came so close to getting attacked by 2 loose pits I can still feel how terrified I was. I barely got back in my house.
Honestly, I’m tired of hearing about babies and elderly being attacked and/or killed by these animals. Sometimes these dogs can just snap, out of nowhere, even pits who’ve been docile and friendly for years. Most time it’s how they are raised, other times, the owners do everything right and these types still turn on them.
It's genetics. Pitbulls were bred to fight, they are bloodsport dogs. Something that can't be fixed, trained or "loved" away. Pitbulls are responsible for over 50% of all dog attacks.
There definitely needs to be more strict laws on these dogs and more strict laws on the owners it’s only getting worse because the owners seem not to care about keeping control of these kind of fighting dogs
Not the breed but the owners and how they are raised
@@ghostJC1126the breed too. They were never created to be pets but were designed to bring down bulls.
@@ghostJC1126 Pit bulls are responsible for 80 percent of fatal dog attacks.
It's the breed.
@@ghostJC1126 I’m a big dog lover but these dogs are very unpredictable it seems. At the same time people do need to keep them close and away from children because they are very territorial and protective dogs, it’s just the breed.
@mopar507 id have to disagree with you on that one and even most trainers would as well. Just on how they are raised. Reason why you see and hear more about these compared to others is that they are 1. Very popular in this social culture, 2. Easily accessible compared to other breeds with higher price tag, and 3. Require less cost to maintain compared to other breeds. It is the owners and the lack of that have made them a dangerous animal when around others.
Can someone explain HOW being killed ny a dog that is spayes or neutered is better than being killed by one that isnt? Or was the councilwoman just spewing nonsense?
Spaying or neutering curves the agression in dogs. A dog spayed or neutered is physiologically milder in their caracter. They have less testosterone. Less testosterone equals less aggressiveness. Less aggressiveness equals less propensity to bite or engage in attacks. Less testosterone equals less force in the bite because lower aggressiveness. Neutered and spayed dogs have better temperament and less likely to engage in vicious attacks than those who aren't.
@@logic306 hmmm interesting in theory but I dont know if I wanna test it out lol
Ban bully breeds!
It’s always a damn Pitbull…
I think it's in the so called responsible breeders and trainers to make it clear they are not for everyone and they can be very dangerous.
Another problem is there is tons of dog breeders compared to bakk in the day. Everyone want to be a breeder and don't care who they sell their pups to
The city needs to do better at following up on ACS reports. My neighbor has an XLbully that steadily gets out of their front door. We've reported 2times with no follow up from ACS. The fines need to get heftier and a muzzle should be required for aggressive dogs. Spay/neuturing a dog is not guaranteed to alter the behavior of a dog, will it help reduce strays? Yes. But these dogs that are attacking&killing ppl are not strays so why is that always brought up? The UK requires XL bullies why is that not a requirement here???
My dog Sasha would never do anything like that she is trained. And is actually gentle with kids especially my autistic nephew. Just the other day when nobody was looking he got outside and Sasha was right behind him trying to bring him back. Good pet ownership is a thing.
Breed-specific restrictions are not the best idea. They are a slippery slope, because throughout history, there have been certain breeds that start to be considered dangerous due to a variety of factors. For example, Bloodhounds, German Shepherds, Dobermans, and Rottweilers are pretty well-known examples of dogs that were seen as dangerous throughout America's history even before the Pit Bull started to be seen as dangerous. Focusing on breed takes away from the main cause behind dog attacks--bad/irresponsible dog ownership. If we keep focusing on breed, the list only grows as new breeds start to be seen as problems. While there are dangerous dogs, you cannot judge a dog based on what breed or type of dog it is. If that were the case, then there would be nobody being attacked by Golden Retrievers, while all or at least most Pit Bulls would be attack someone. Also, with Pit Bulls, they are not one specific breed. Even in this video, there are dogs that are called Pit Bulls that are different from the American Pit Bull breed.
Utter and complete horseshit.
Pitbulls have always been dangerous, and it's only recently that mush-brained fools have tried convincing people that they are safe as pets. They're responsible for 80 percent of fatal dog attacks. They're DANGEROUS, and we restrict dangerous things all the time.
Also, "slippery slope" is not a rational argument. It's a logical fallacy.
Need a license. Low income people should not own these dogs . If under 50k a year . You get a gold fish or cat .
Whoa! I can see a civil rights lawsuit taking place.
@@ghostJC1126* says the person making under 50k
Acting like there aren't people with money who are still idiots tells me everything I need to know about you
@@KhreamedKhorne interesting.... Ever seen a pitbull attack on the North side or suburbs ??
I’m guessing you make under 50k and don’t like dog lol your funny kid.
Sit back down.
I make more than that, and I don’t want another pitbull. My next dog will be a Corso.
And I know many people who make a lot more that don’t want dogs due to the responsibility. But I also have had clients who make under 40k own power breeds and are successful.
Hell I got my Rottweiler mix from one of those people.
But there’s times where I’m glad I can take my dog with me, because most people who make over 50k (I’m sure you don’t make near that due to the fact you didn’t get this part thru your head) work a lot and don’t have time for any dog. Most people who make under work 40 hours a week and have the time to raise a dog. But u don’t expect anyone who makes under 50k to realize that 😅😉
Why can't I own a Siberian tiger? It's just a different breed of cat, right? If I promise to get it spayed or neutered, then it's fine for me to have a full-grown Siberian tiger in my house, in my backyard, take it out for walks around my neighbourhood? Maybe I'll get lion too. They're just sweet precious kitties!
... we restrict dangerous animals ALL THE TIME. Banning pit bulls just makes sense.
A tiger is just an extra big, fluffy, and stripey kitty.😂 🤪
Because it’s an endangered species. Nice try but dumb analogy
Studies show that neutering actually INCREASES aggression due to non natural hormonal imbalances. I let them talk me into neutering my pitbull. He was a completely different dog after and NOT in a good way. I got him neutered at 1.5 years old and i ended up having to give him up after he NEVER gave me problems before that.
My opinion is that the elected officials should ease restrictions on fence heights so property owners can raise the heights of their fence to keep their dogs in the yard without fearing them jumping out
Yes, arrest doctors for doing life saving abortions but nothing on dog attacks. Makes total sense!
States need to step up about the stray crisis so there are not packs of hungry dogs wondering the streets! They need to make harsher laws for neglect and abuse of animals especially in Texas. It’s not a specific breed problem, it’s an irresponsible, accountability human problem!
I would support stricter laws on ignorant people. Having dogs I've had pit bulls, my whole life, and I've never had a vicious one. It's how you raise the dog.
It's the owner not the dogs!!!!!
Yea only a psychopathic idiot wants a shitbull
It's the owners, not the dogs. Don't be dumb
You’re part of the problem. You care more about dogs than people.
Dog owners ruin communities. Endanger their own children for no reason, and walk around with bags of poop like it's a designer purse. They reak of dog dander and make out with mutts. They also justify them eating children for sneezing or crying. But we're the ones that are dumb for wanting them gone? Mmk
Which is why we should ban ownership 😊
Not true. Plenty of properly raised pits have gotten confused or upset and viciously turned on their owners or others. They are animals, with lethal killing power. Don't be stupid
Bad owners with toy poodles don't get anyone killed.
They going turn the lights out on all of you people cuz y'all can't pay your bill
Can we just require high liability insurance (1M+) for each dog in case of an attack. Then people can have any dog they want. Those premiums will weed out a lot of people. Let insurance companies set the pricing depending on the type of dog you have.
Vote out Abbot the snowman!
First of all, it's not the dogs. It's the puggin owner! How you train and treat your dogs reflects on you. Dogs are not dangerous. It's the PEOPLE that's dangerous.
Incorrect. There are many cases where the dog was raised right, loved and well trained, that never showed any signs or aggression……until they snapped. Almost always some dupe of pitbull.
Which is why we should stop people from owning these things 😊
This is such a irresponsible statement. Plenty of pitts are raised normally and attack. The difference is they can kill you within minutes compared to other breeds that would give you stitches. It's 1000 percent selfish to allow this breed in society
A bad owner with a toy poodle doesn't get anyone killed.
For the most part it is the owner and their lack of training or care. It's not the breed. You can get bit by any breed of dog. But there needs to be more consequences for irresponsible owners owning nusince dogs
When one breed is responsible for 80 percent of fatal dog attacks, then yes, it's the breed.
Stay armed at all times🫡
Interesting this happens so frequently in SA which has a higher percentage of a certain demographic. Maybe focus education on proper pet care and ownership, mandatory leash training and walking their dogs with a leash and harness at all times, no guard dogs left outside, dogs not left outside unattended or left in the supervision of minors, they have to spay and neuter their pets and get them regularly vaccinated and microchipped! They can’t leave toddlers unattended with any large dog no matter what. It is the owners responsibility to keep their pets safe and their children and neighbors safe too. Pitbulls are not for everyone or beginners. If you are a new dog owner get a hound dog or golden retriever mix. Stay away from German shepherd too
The real problem isn't the breeds ,the problem are irresponsible dogs owners who mistreating or don't take care of them,is really easy blame in the poor animal.
U are wrong what is wrong with u omg it's the brewed and people like u who think that way is also the problem
They r so dangeorus
Pit beasts owners are disgusting sick people who just don't care about the children and animals these things kill every day.
@@DIEGOHOMEGIRLWell they want people to vote but that's democrats and repuilcans thing just do nothing I mean sooner or later we need to get more serioues and say enough
Any creature that will rip a toddlers throat out for sneezing or falling down should be banned.
Government needs to mind their own business. If you're dog attacks someone you're on the hook to be held accountable other than nothing needs to be done or said. There's no such thing as a "dangerous breed"
@@letsgetbidentoquit the data says u r wrong. Ppl killed by dogs r almost always pitbulls.
One breed responsible for 80 percent of fatal attacks.
You: tHeRe'S nO sUcH tHiNg As a dAnGeRoUs BrEeD
@zammmerjammer did you do statistics on 100% of pit bull owners before you spit that non-sense? It's not the dogs it's the owners 100%. It's how they are raised. And a good majority of pit bull owners get them and train them to be aggressive
@@letsgetbidentoquit why is it not how a poodle is raised? Bully breeds are responsible because they were breed to take down large animals. The dog operates independent of its owners.
@@Ihatecucumbersanddogswild
I’ve had my pitbull since she was 8-10 weeks old I raised her like a child countless hours of training and socializing she’s now 9 years old and I have a 3 year old son and she’s been glued to him since birth it’s not the dog it’s the OWNER please don’t get ANY dog if you’re not going to be 100% responsible and dedicated for your dogs training & actions
I own a pitbull. that's not a pitbull, that was a bully. But that doesn't fit the narrative nor do they care. I'm a dog trainer myself. First thing is people just breed these dogs for $$$ & not temperament, then these so called backyard breeders sell these dogs to anyone without doing their
due diligence on if the person is qualified to own a working breed of dog. Second most owners don't understand proper home maintenance for a working dog. Anyone who owns a working dog has a responsibility. I see too many people that don't understand responsibility until it's too late.
And select breeding plays just as big of a part as the training does. Improper breeding methods lead to unstable dogs, no matter what the breed.
@@big-aimpalancapricenationi3217 There are zero pit bull breeders who are breeding for temperament.
See you on the news, you stupid f*ck
You're playing Russian roulette and think you're skilled, when in fact you've just been LUCKY.
So far.
Why do these stories happen more often in the USA than elsewhere in the world ?
These dogs are not dangerous from birth ! Many dogs come from less than conscientious 'breeders' which produce degenerate dogs ! It is not genetic, except in the case of unscrupulous breeders ! It’s a question of education !!! Many owners do not teach their animals the basics and limits !
It’s the owners who are stupid and it’s always the dogs who pay !
They happen even more in Brazil.
@@zammmerjammerThat's crazy and terrifying ! 😓
Genuine question, I’m from CA. so my opinion on this for San Antonio is null. But, maybe this would happen in other states as well. So here goes… how does one ban a breed? They exist, how do we get rid of the breed? I don’t just want rid a breed. That would require putting down all those dogs. I’m all for putting down violent dogs. Any breed. But, what about ones that are not in those banned breeds? Yes, I have a dog. I have a golden doodle to be exact. But, I just don’t get how you would ban certain breeds? What’s the consequences if said ban is broken by someone?
I Blame the owner's, people must believe these are Regular dogs and their Not,these are not even Regular pitbulls,i don't know i have a pitbull and he maybe 50 pounds and 4 years, he's not a Dangerous dog
Until he is. Every attack is followed by "it never showed aggression before"
@@SlugSage he wouldn't do that, those dogs are 2-3 times bigger than my dog and I will say I don't think he would do something like that, plus I don't think those dogs ever got out to walk or play, look how fat they are,if dogs don't get to burn Energy and play they aren't going to be Happy
@@Demetrius-g5t You're playing Russian roulette and aren't bright enough to realize you've just been lucky.
Over emotional irrational response. Go take a nap.
My hearts go out to thosr that have been hurt or Lost family,But it is not about the Breeds it's the Dangerous felons that own em and Idiots who think a puppy for the yard is a good idea ,THAT BEING SAID
FK OFF my Dog
Typical self-centred illiterate pit bull simp.
And when the mom 🍺🍺🍻🍺🍺🍻🍺🍺🍻🍷🍻🍷🍷🍻🍺🍻🍺🍻🍺🍺
It's ignorant people that make violent dogs. The issue is not the dogs. Its the irresponsible owners. This is another attempt on punish the good owners, which is way more by far then the idiots who ruin it for everyone. Another play of gun confiscation type of tactics
Nah man you're wrong. These dogs are animals #1, your cute cuddedly let #2. If they want to snap and attack no matter how much training you've given you or someone else is toast and theres plenty of examples. Just look at the family who raised their two kids with their two lovable pitts, one day the pitts snapped and attacked and killed the kids and then the mom trying to help. It's a selfish breed like wanting to keep chimpanzees as pets
@@thrillhouse4784 😆😆😆😆 like I said. EDUCATION. Clearly you just don't understand. It's ok. Simple minded people don't. It's ok on the bright side. Most of the world is like you. Take some comfort in that and enjoy your simple day
@@WilliamYumwallace OK so how do you properly train your pit bull NOT to murder your 1 year old baby? Lol 😂. Plenty of families out there who have been attacked by their perfectly raised pit bulls.
@@thrillhouse4784 well, uneducated who thinks they are smarter than me. I WOULD NEVER PUT MY ONE YEAR OLD AROUND A PIT BULL. 😆😆😆 I'm educated in this field to know what kind of pet to out around my family taking into account the age of my children and the age, history, background and the background of the parents documented with a credible source with a long history of what they do. You have me confused with someone who just takes some random dog into my house and around my family. And yes. I've been training dogs since I was 5-6 years old staring with my grandfathers 14-16 blue tics hounds that were all trained to hunt. Now that you realize how pathetic and educated as I already pointed out. No go sit at the kids table, mind your manors and know your place. 98-115 is the advantage of IQ most of the world. I would bet you're at the 98 and maybe a little bit or a lot lower, who knows. But it's not up there. Your response tells me a lot about the decisions you make in life. Go play at the kids table. Be nice and have a door day "98"
