Hello everyone, this blog is mainly for the people in the media, but I hope that everyone will view the blog that I attach a link to. I have been keeping a blog for a few months now of dog attacks that do not involve Pit Bulls. What I have learned is this; when a Pit Bull attack is reported, it will be splashed across the headlines in bold, capital letters - PIT BULL MAULS CHILD or something to that effect. Also, they usually will add a picture of a snarling, mean looking Pit Bull.  When a different breed is involved in an attack, usually the breed is not mentioned and there will not be a picture available. This is just what I have noticed over the last few months while I have been keeping up with dog attacks.

Have a look at my blog, you will probably be surprised by how many dog attacks there have been in the recent months.

So, my message to the media is this... I wish that when you report a dog attack, you would be somewhat fair. The fact is that ALL breeds attack, and Pit Bulls are no more of a danger than a poorly raised Labrador. When a Pit Bull attacks, you can bet that everyone will hear about it, even if it is on the opposite side of the state. But when other breeds attack, nobody ever hears about it because they are not reported on the same scale as Pit Bull attacks.
