Fair point but how often do Black Labs, Dobies and Blood Hounds attack and kill or maim versus Pit Bulls? What percentages? Any statistics on those 3 compared to pit bull type doggies you can back things up with?

I made no point. I merely posted some dog attacks that you would otherwise have known nothing about.
