Pit Bull News!

Dog Attacks You Never Hear About.blogspot.com has sadly disappeared.

 

This was an excellent resource for those interested in the truth about dogs and dog bite incidents as it proved in real time that Pit Bulls were by no means the only dogs that bite, nor are they the only dogs that do real damage when they attack in earnest.

 

This excellent work deserves to be preserved and continued hence this page.  Newer incidents will be added as they come to hand.
