The Photos Lie: Killer Pit Bulls & other dangerous dogs with their Victims

Adapted with thanks from a post on The Truth about Pit Bulls.

Photos of friendly pit bulls and other dangerous breeds as pets are deceptive.  These photos only show a moment in time.  When pit bulls and other dangerous breeds are made into pets, children are put at risk of being maimed or killed by a well-loved and cared for pet.  Dangerous breeds are dangerous because they will break the human canine bond for no reason other than their genetics.  These are photos mostly of killer dogs and the victims who loved them.  A few of these dangerous dogs merely seriously mauled their victims.

Feb 2021 - This attack betrays the pit bull owner's spectacular lack of judgment and insane priorities.  The mother of the child put in the hospital with brain damage posted publicly that the mauler that nearly killed her child was the child's best friend and she mourned the pit bull's death.
 
After the attack the pit was immediately put down because it had not been vaccinated for rabies and its brain had to be autopsied to determine if the child hd been exposed to rabies.  After the attack, the apartment was found to be filthy, lacking utilities with dangerous code violations.

Nov 2020  - After 11 months, French forensics labs finally determined that Elisa Pilarski was killed by her own beloved ADBA registered pit bull Curtis, and not by a pack of hounds as was alleged by her boyfriend. She was taking her beloved pit bull Curtis for a walk in the woods when he turned on her and killed her.

 In the video, Elisa repeatedly says to Curtis, "Mon amour" (my love), calls him her baby, says he's a "bon chien" (good dog) and sings "Beautiful Boy" to him.  She was six months pregnant at the time of her death.  Pit bulls are illegal in France.  https://bit.ly/3c7R3zF

 Sep 2018 - The woman pictured here just met her new adopted pit bull.  Two weeks later, this pit bull killed this woman even though this woman was an experienced and dedicated pit bull rescuer.

Though all players are eager to take credit for the "pull and save," they we just as eager now to delete pages associated to Snowball.'

"What we find most disturbing in the past few days is that police want to know why Niko attacked, as if an unpredictable attack by a pit bull is unusual? As if it is not well established in appellate decisions upholding pit bull ordinances that these dogs often show no warning signals before an attack?" DogsBite.Org

 These photographs prove exactly nothing about . And often when we know the story that surrounds the photos, we find the photo, if used as proof of a cherished, loyal, safe family dog, is an outright lie.
