Hi Peng Yu... The APBT is one of the most popular breed in the world, especially in the states, thats because of its name in fighting rings. How do you think if a guard dog (GSD< Rotty, DOBBY, Malinois and etc...>attack someone? Very common people might say these dogs are protecting their owner, property or something... {a positive statement}. But when come to a pitbull attack, people will immediately say that is an attack but not protecting due to its name as a fighter {a negative statement} To me this is not fair to APBT. Especially, do you think number of Rotty attack can be less than pit attack? Which breed has killed the old lady in KL years ago? Which breed has attacked the 5 yeards old child few years ago, a child was killed by 3 Chow Chow in HK in 1989 and many many more... off cause there were some cases which involve APBT, but I would say it is rarely happened especially in our country... I have read an article not long ago regarding dog attack issue in US. It sounds like this; Lots of people in US not really know how to differenciate a APBT and other bull type dog, there are numbers of Boxer attack had been claimed as a APBT attack, same issue goes to Presa Canalio, Cane Coso, Mastiff, Am. Bulldog and etc... attacks had been missed taken claimed as APBT attack. We all the members here hopes that day the public will look at the positive side of this breed but not the negative... The only statement I can accept towards APBT is < ALL Breed ( COULD ) be dangerous if it was brought up by a irresponsible owner, NOT only APBT> Cheer...
