Comment on Sophie's choice 70s edition
Nacktmull@lemmy.world 5 months agoSure, generally it´s always the owners fault if something goes wrong but it´s also a fact that different dogs have different aggression potentials and thereby are more or less difficult to train and control.

💯. If you’re a shitty trainer you should get a golden retriever instead of a Pit. But there are people who know what they’re doing and those people have the sweetest dogs you could ever meet and they happen to be pits. Therefore all the hate for one specific breed is idiotic, unfair and should be directed towards people not innocent creatures that we basically created. They are our responsibility.

That is exactly what I wrote earlier, nice that we agree.

In an ideal world yes, they shouldn’t get any dog. But they will, so getting a Pit is significantly more dangerous than a golden because they are much easier to train.

True but I would still prefer to be attacked by a lapdog instead of a medium sized dog, just not while it´s sitting in my lap ;)

Alright, it felt like you trying to disagree with me even though what I said in the first place was it depends on the dogs owner. But I might have just been defensive because I’m used to my takes being challenged on Lemmy. But I see now that you were just expanding on what I already said. Cheers

I was trying to add a more a more differentiated perspective.
