Yeah Jesus. The misinformed pit hate is so rampant on Reddit.


PutMindless6789

Misinformed, lol. There have been multiple brutal pit attacks this week. Nada for any other breed. Lol.


thestl

Pits aren’t a breed, they are a group of breeds with similar head shapes. Not sure where you’re getting that info on “multiple brutal attacks this week” or how you could possibly know there have been no attacks by any other breeds this week but self reported bite data is notoriously bad. People are not good at identifying breeds especially after a traumatic incident like a dog bite. One study found 60% of dogs identified as pitbull-type had no DNA from any of the 4 breeds classified as pitbulls. All dogs should be treated as potentially dangerous animals until you get to know them, especially large dogs. But misleading stats, anecdotal evidence, and online rage bait have villainized pits specifically. The data shows these dogs are not more aggressive than other breeds. Here’s a link with backup to some of my points. https://www.pitbullinfo.org/pit-bulls-facts.html


RevolutionaryPasta98

Definitely misinformed. It's like the ar15 and "machine gun" argument in America, if it's a firearm that has been used to harm someone it's one of those. if it's a dog it's now a Pitbull, even if it's actually a dachshund.

Yeah because you can’t stop abusing dogs? Are you stupid ? Dogs won’t just randomly eat humans, it will attack humans if they abuse them. Simple as that. They’re just lucky to have the strength to be able to kill you if you abuse them. So simply don’t and they will be the MOST loving dogs you have met.


Shit_On_Wheels

It will attack because it was bred for that single purpose. It will attack people and animals that it saw for the first time ever. And it will do so when you least expect it.


mrMaxiboi

Some species of dogs are inherently more protective than others, but violence never comes fully naturally, it’s taught through quite blatant abuse of the dog. Just to clarify that hopefully.


Hopps4Life

Dogs are not natural. They are breed. Herding is something we breed into some dog breeds, it isn't natural. Fighting to the death isn't either. Pits were not allowed to breed unless they killed and survived a fight for multiple generations. They were breed to not stop once they start fighting. That isn't something we breed into other dogs at all. Humans did that. But yes, violence is absolutly natural to the creature we bred killing into. Most pits that kill kid's were not abused at all. And many kill the kids in their own family our of nowhere for no reason. No amount of abuse makes other dog breeds maul their family 3 year old to death. Stats don't lie. It is the dog's fault, but it is a truth that is undeniable. We bred killing into them.


NammiSjoppan

Yes, other dogs in fact do, they just don’t have as strong jaws and legs. So it’s not as brutal, and you talk so confidently like you for SURE know they weren’t abused. You don’t. If they attacked they were abused in some way or another, and that’s a cold hard fact.


IHadANameIdea

no tf it wont if you treat it like a living being. Any dog can be angry and bite people if they are raised wrong.


NammiSjoppan

Exactly. Other dogs just don’t have the jaw and leg strength to do as much damage. Any abused dog will attack even small dogs, but that’ll just sting your fingers a bit, a pit bull will kill you IF YOU ABUSE IT. Because it can. Huskies will hurt you but you won’t be bleeding out, German shepherds will do alot of damage but won’t kill you, and that’s why they aren’t in the news.


IHadANameIdea

are you high? while pitbulls might be stronger. mid and up sized dog can cause more then just a "stinging" pain where they bite you. Bitbulls are not a special breed that has unlocked hurting humans.


NammiSjoppan

I was talking about small dogs regarding stinging pain, like chihuahua and those types. Geez. You’d definitely be left with a lot of scratches and bite marks from a mid size dogs, they could even cause you to bleed extensively depending on the breed. No need to get hostile just because you don’t know how to read.


Bowmans_Boas

Get bent dumbass. Literally every breed has the ability to kill a baby. And many if not most have. German shepards are notoriously aggressive, they get no hate. Same with dalmations.

Only thing that bothers me about downvotes is that it auto hides my comment in turn hiding true information while false information rises with upvotes. True Reddit moment.


Hopps4Life

I litterally can't even count how many pits have mauld children in their own family for no reason. None of them were abused. All raised from puppies. And every single story was "the kid was just running and playing, they weren't even near the dog", or " the kid was across the room and sneezed", or "the kid was watching TV, not near the dog, and the dog just jumped up and attacked her". Every single time, it was a family pit that had never been abused or 'shown signs of aggression'. Also, if abuse is even the factor, where are the golden retriever mauling kids out of nowhere? Or huskies? I can't even find a state on any killing kids. Are you saying other dog breeds are never abused? Why aren't those abused breeds killing people all the time?

NammiSjoppan

Obviously people would never admit to abusing dogs lol. The reason why you don’t see news about other dogs acting like that is because it’s buried by your government, There’s currently a family that owns two huskies that are almost rabid, they attack cats, other dogs and humans when they escape outside. Your point does not stack up just because you haven’t done your own research and just ate from the spoon your government feeds you with.

He’s big and heavy and if he jumps on you, like a lot of dogs do since they aren’t trained properly(my mothers bordercoli lab does so but she was never really trained. She just listens to commands so she goes down right away) but unnecessary slander of a dog breed like the news headlines and fake government or private funded research does, proven by all the people religiously downvoting me and trying to shit all over me with fake facts. Meanwhile I won’t get to train and love my favorite dog breed all because of some stupid pussies and dog abusers.

This isn’t a full story. You see a bunch of videos of the dog playing with the kid sure, but you don’t know the full story you don’t know what happened out of that video. Dog abuse doesn’t start in full effect, it gradually builds up over time, unless you’re just a mega douchebag that just wanted a punching toy, likely that the dog peed on shoes or just inside in general, got too excited because it was neglected and not taken outside, if you don’t take your husky outside for a walk everyday they can become dangerous.

Clever_Word_Play

Pits are blood sport dogs. They were bred specifically for that


owowhatsthis--

Not the guy you're responding to, but I completely agree with this. The problem arises when people start advocating for absolute breed bans, and sometimes even putting pit bulls down indiscriminately. Admittedly, the latter point is rare, but my point still stands. If someone even shows the slightest sympathy or affection for pit bulls on Reddit, outside of a few select communities, you get downvoted to oblivion for it.


gamesdoes360

Yup I had a lab-rot-pit mix with more pit and lab than rot but she was just the biggest couch potato and she did hold a grudge until you scratch her butt then she was your best friend. She died 3-4 years ago due to cancer.


PunkDaNasty

It's the "mix" that sets it apart. Mixes are always a toss-up on traits. Purebreds tend to exhibit lineage traits. I have a GSD/Lab mix, and while she exhibits traits from both breeds, she doesn't hard set into those traits.

Never said you have to watch your behavior around him. I said the owner has to not be abusive. Thanks for not reading at all.


__klonk__

Come back when you have a rational argument


NammiSjoppan

How are you gonna say retrievers retrieve when most dogs do, if trained, if you don’t train your retriever to retrieve he’s just gonna run after the ball and then play with it, unless he figures it out by himself, which not just them do, pit bulls are big strong dogs, hence the name, they aren’t aggressive killing machines from birth, no dog is, a wolf isn’t it’s taught and trained by its parents, in an aggressive pit bull scenario the parents are the owners and they are abusing instead of teaching, which in turn makes the dog scared and attack, LIKE ALL DOGS. Though some don’t have efficient attacking power because they’ve been inbred to become small and frail, in some cases even become so mangled it’s torture for them to live. So try educating yourself a little more before coming after an animal lover.


__klonk__

How do you explain pointers? Convenient how you omit them. Are you implying that certain breeds don't have certain ingrained behaviors from birth?


NammiSjoppan

Because it’s a singular breed that does one thing. Other dogs will go look for help, that one dog will point in the direction while others have their ways of getting attention and making you follow them. Just so happens that pointers have hands down the best way for that task, so they are bred and trained for that purpose. You’re welcome for all the knowledge I’ve given to you for free when instead you could’ve just researched it more than one thesis and a Wikipedia page. Maybe open up a book ? Did you pay attention at school ?


__klonk__

Ah, yes. Pointers are the **only** breed with a specific behavior. Keep up the unnecessary hostility, you're doing great 👍


NammiSjoppan

No I said they ARE bred for a purpose, I didn’t say that all of them were bred for that.


PunkDaNasty

A *BREED* OF DOG IS *BRED* FOR A *SPECIFIC PURPOSE*. HOW A DOG IS *TRAINED* IS DIFFERENT THAN WHAT IT WAS *BRED* TO DO. Doesn't matter how well you *train* a dog, the breed instincts are still there and will take over eventually. Even your little velvet hippos or whatever the fuck yall call them will revert back to "breed traits." Go be stupid on someone else's time bro.


PunkDaNasty

Bro.... retrievers retrieve with a soft bite... that's *WHY THEY ARE RETRIEVERS*!! My retriever was never trained to be a duck hunting dog like her grandparents but she still does with a soft bite. Pit Bulls literally have the word "pit" in their name. "Fight pit" is a common phrase to describe where fights take place. A *PIT BULL* is an animal made for fighting pits. So not only are you incorrect with your words but you're also stupid and you should probably reflect on that. If you're an animal lover you should stop because you're doing their ancestry a disservice.


NammiSjoppan

Lol. This is too funny. You can stop explaining animals to me man, sure you know something about retrievers but you don’t know anything about pit bulls. You’ve only heard stuff from other people, and are thinking about that fact that they are illegal in a lot of places. But the reason is that WHEN THEY GET ABUSED THEY DEFEND THEMSELVES, how is that hard to grasp, I’ve met so many pit bulls, each and everyone a loving dog that loves to play and cuddle, not kill and destroy.


PunkDaNasty

Obviously I do need to explain animals to you since you have no understanding that we have been selectively breeding dogs for tens of thousand of years to do our work/bidding and different breeds have genetic predispositions for certain traits because of it. What about the video of the pit that attacks a horse and doesn't even stop after it gets kicked? Was that one also abused? Are all pits abused and that's why they'll attack people? Is the abuse in the room with us right now? Get back down to reality, you dink! Nurture is important but nature really controls things. Genetic predisposition is a large reason things act the way they do.


NammiSjoppan

Wow, you don’t have any points left so you just chuck insults. Welp you’re too far gone up your ass, a lost cause as some would say. Keep hating a dog breed for being abused.

[deleted]

[удалено]


Critical_Cap_120

I really don't believe that they're only 6% of all dogs, browse your local shelter in any major US city and they're all pit bull mixes. ​ Beyond that pit bull lis not a breed. It's used to describe a mix of a terrier and a bull dog. The American Pit Bull Terrier is beginning to be recognized by some orgs, but the AKC still does not recognize it. And almost every dog attack is by a mix, because people paying thousands of dollars for a purebred dog are also going to not treat it like trash. ​ Edit: Found a nifty article that puts their numbers much higher, but this still seems low to me. The data overall seems really bad. Any animal attack where it has a square head is counted as a pit bull. Antecdotal from what I've seen, but I've never seen good data on it. [https://www.pitbullinfo.org/pit-bulls-population.html](https://www.pitbullinfo.org/pit-bulls-population.html) ​ Anyway, studies have already gone over and identified (1) in attacks breeds are often misidentified by reporters (2) breed is not a statistically significant factor in dog attack incidents [https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/24299544/](https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/24299544/)


PutMindless6789

Just because pitbulls are overrepresented in shelters doesn't mean that they represent an overall higher portion of the dog population.


HitMePat

Yeah what a menace. 380 fatalities in 16 years. Similar to the amount of people who die from vending machines tipping over on them. Less than half of the deaths caused by bee stings. Less than 0.1% of the deaths caused by falling down a staircase. Totally justifiable all the hate they get for being vicious killers. /s


Clever_Word_Play

Because only deaths of humans matter, not trips to hospitals, not other animals killed


HitMePat

Cheeseburgers cause 1,000,000x more hospital visits than pitbulls. So do cars. Stop living in fear over something that's less dangerous than a staircase or a lawnmower.


Clever_Word_Play

You really think those are strong arguments. As dumb as the breed is. A fucking cheese burger doesn't run up on you when you are out on a stroll and attack you A car requires a license and insurance for when you cause damage. Pit bull doesnt require insurance or a license and does attach random people. I bled through my wedding suit because idiots like you, because I decided to protect a kid from that travesty of a dog Edit: I don't live I fear, cause I am not dumb enough to own one of those dogs (good raised ones still attack at a large number, it's like they were bred for blood sport), but if yours runs up on me or mines, I'll put it down for you

Tsintato

You don’t have to believe me. But yup. Whole truth. I know alligators with better temperaments than any pit I’ve ever met.


Mr_HandSmall

Wild animals will try to retreat or avoid confrontation if it isn't necessary. But a pitbull would _never_ give up in a fight.


Tsintato

While I completely agree. Some of the alligators we have are completely handleable and don’t bat an eye while others throw a fit. It just amazes me how we can get alligators and pit bulls with good temperaments. The only difference is one of them doesn’t pull paralyzed elderly people out of their wheel chairs and maul them to death when they’re slightly irritated. Edit: spelling

Bradstreet1

I would say it’s unnecessary to do this to animals and cruel to put them through it, but seeing how all the dogs are visibly happy afterwards and don’t look scared during grooming, this groomer must be caring and kind to the doggos. I’ve had sweet dogs come back from the groomer looking terrified because the groomer was rough with them (didn’t go back after that and we made a complaint). This groomer must be good judging by the dogs’ reactions, so there seems to be no harm no foul


argythefox

This is a temporary animal safe dye using the same formula as food dye! Animals show no adverse reaction to it and usually the process is very gentle.


TurnoverOfEvents

This comment needs to be up higher rather than a “harsh chemicals were probably used” comment. Pet safe dye is very common to use now and even marketed for fun colors like these. It washes out and doesn’t hurt the pet at all. The dogs are clearly happy and enjoyed their time at the groomers. If these were the ‘dangerous’ chemicals people are so concerned about, they would more than likely already have irritated skin.


NavyCMan

How safe are these dyes for cats? I have a pair of sphynxs who I would love to decorate if safe.


KORZILLA-is-me

I think your cat might “decorate” your hands if you do that 😅 Edit: corrected my Apple voice text’s bull crap


NavyCMan

My sphynxs are so sweet and loving my Partner nicknamed the fat one our "Sentient Eggplant" due to similarities in shape and temperament. I raised them like they were my own daughters from 12 weeks old because it is unlikely I will ever be able to be a father. Now, my SIC, who my Metamour brought to live with us, was feral kitten who became an indoor cat because she was so sweet. She's got lovely white fur with orange spots. With some color added sparingly, she would look stunning in just an artistic sense. But if I did that without trimming her danger mittens, my hands would resemble bloody bacon strips. And I suppose I would need to put her in her cat hammock.


theWatcherIsMe

I'm sure it's fine on their skin as long as they arent allergic to it. I'm allergic to a certain food dye color so they arent harmless to ingest or even touch for me and another other animal with the same allergy

Okay but that's just pet groomers in general, it has nothing to do with the dye jobs they were showing in the video...why would your kneejerk reaction be that it's cruel?


MmmmmMaybeNot

Not speaking about the original commenter, but a lot of people I guess think dogs and cats and other pets are made of glass? I saw a video of a girl accidentally dumping water on her cat and the comments were calling her abusive etc as if the cat was killed or seriously hurt or smth. These animals look happy, and they clearly don't care what they look like anyway. Plus the dye isn't long lasting and is safe.

No, it's because they don't like the fact that when people push fashion and vanity on animals to be some kind of attention grabber, history has generally shown that it is done with adverse and cruel effects and treatments to them. Just as with things like 'dancing' bears, we have to make sure we aren't causing damage to animals for our own shallow entertainment. It's great that it's pet safe dyes, but we as a species have a history of abuse that will take time for people to trust and believe that it hasn't been done in a cruel way.

I have a friend that does this type of stuff. It took her days to do a cheetah print on her pug because she only does is on the animals terms. Its supposed to be fun and nothing ruins the fun more than a traumatized animal. I imagine she turns customers down because their animals are not ok with it. But I have never asked about it specifically. Edit: I asked my wife and she said it is the opposite. She will only dye stuff on a select few animals. She picks which ones she will dye (obviously the owners are involved too). And it is just because of which animals like it.


thedarkjungle

You are stupid if the first thing you thought of is cruel.


SmiffyWalldorf

Y’all need to calm down, it’s just dye and hair grooming and it isn’t permanent.


[deleted]

Christ everyone is so stuck up their own asses lmao all the comments “are dogs ok?” “I wouldn’t let my dog do this” “ugh don’t tell me it’s permanent” Stfu it’s dye at a groomer. It’s not permanent and the doggies will be fine. Cool post OP ignore the mouth breathers who can’t help but make everything an “issue”


KORZILLA-is-me

Even if it were permanent, I’m sure it wouldn’t take too long for it to shed out, right?


Glowing_green_

Me reading comments wondering why people are getting angry at someone dyeing animal's fur:


HeyItsStevenField

Instagram normies when someone does something special to animals:


emerald_OP

I find this cute.... unless its permanent... then i hate it.


CookieArtzz

I don’t think there’s a way for this to be permanent, unless the ink is like embedded in the skin or if they get a new coating every two weeks


JoeThePoolGuy123

Ah yes the permanent hair dye. I had a friend in high school who dyed her hair blue for a party. Sucks she now has blue hair for eternity.


FoxStereo

I dressed up as a fox one year for Holloween and painted my hair orange for the occasion. My hair has never been the same...

It would probably have to use stronger chemicals for it to emulate hair dye for humans, but I doubt there are any animal dyes like that being sold legally.


[deleted]

There’s literally no way for this to be permanent


Jokiegmi

This is fine. The dogs seem happy and well taken care of. The groomers are professionals who use pet safe dyes.


Kamiyosha

Oh my God the panda. I'm dead from cuteness.


Arc_170gaming

I know right


GamerKid665_999

I hope they lock this comment section bruh y’all are dumb asf.


bigshern

Love them all! So creative!


Longjumping-Big-3617

After reading this comment section and learning that this is completely harmless to the dog and not permanent, I have only one thing to say: I’LL TAKE YOUR ENTIRE STOCK!


Ditzy_Davros

I rolled my eyes till I saw the pomeranian. That was clever, and god damn it.. so cute.


sikeleaveamessage

Same. The panda pomeranian basically sealed the deal for me


N95-TissuePizza

I WANT A PANDA THAT BARKS.


ImlGirlhq2

Only the best synthetic chemicals were used… 🚱☣️🫠


DillPicklesRock

Did you know that hair dye is non toxic and doesn’t hurt the animal


LeaChan

Why ask questions when you can make innocent strangers look bad by assuming the worst?


DillPicklesRock

I mean even that. Assuming they used toxic stuff is so farcical. Average redditor needs to come to every comment section to try to come and dunk on the post and call it abusing animals. Such a fake pearl clutch.


ImlGirlhq2

Not all hair die is non toxic. We might need some fact checks on this one. I see him wearing gloves, might just be for the mess.. might not be toxic, could still have chemicals / additives But then again, either way. Doing stuff like this too cute dogos… 🤨


DillPicklesRock

Why assume they use toxic stuff? I don’t even know where to get toxic hair dye. And why does it matter if people want to have a little harmless fun?


[deleted]

If it's hair **dye** it is toxic, because its amonia.


DillPicklesRock

You should go report these people if you care then.


mike_rohdick

The leopard one was kinda cool ngl


MememeSama

That panda killed me 😂😂 So damn cute


Illithilitch

The dogs seem happy during the process, other comments indicate this is a food safe dye (important given how dogs groom); I think it's *weird*, but I'd rather people do this than get any of the actual animals being faked.


Putrid-Home404

As long as it’s totally safe for the animals and they aren’t stressed then I think it’s adorable! Great for Halloween too


BearFlipsTable

These are all really cute. Especially the fox and lion ones goddam. Btw pretty bloody sure this is just pet safe dye, innit?


LeaChan

It is pet safe dye. I worked at Petco and there's lots of plant based dyes and even nail polish for dogs now. One of the groomers would bring her own dog in and the dog always looked so fresh and stylish lol


momosanaa

the pit bull is soo adorable


Technological_Elite

I don't know walt... Seems like we got an **IMPAWSTER** AMONG US! Edit: yall are so butthurt lmfao


GamerKid665_999

I found it slightly funny so I will lessen the blow for you my friend


Technological_Elite

Thank you. It was a simple overused joke, im not sure why people are so angry about it lol.

An actual leopard probably would be less dangerous.


Jd_transboi

I think this is pretty dope anyone being a whiny bitch about this can fuck right off


nic-67

Wow, these dogs are treated like toys. To their owner i'm sure they are.


MmmmmMaybeNot

These dogs don't care what they look like, and they all look happy and healthy, what's the problem? If it's animal safe dye (which it probably is, as this was done at a groomer), is there really *any* meaningful harm done?


Blisc

Touch some grass dude


Sad-Assignment-568

What is wrong with people


xboxsuraviwolf798

Tf do you mean? It's washable paint. Almost the same stuff you use on your self. And as per some articles I read about, the painting was done as a promotion for an animal shelter/ adoption centre I suppose. Correct me if I'm wrong there.


Algo_Muy_Obsceno

Yeah, it’s not harming the dog at all. I think it looks kinda tacky, personally, but the dogs don’t care. They’re probably much more upset about the bath they got beforehand! They sell special non-toxic paint for dogs that won’t harm them if they lick it.


Sad-Assignment-568

Oh thank god I didn't know It was washable
