Description

City and county animal control departments in at least 16 U.S. states report that pit bulls are biting more than all other dog breeds. These states include: Arkansas, California, Florida, Georgia, Indiana, Kansas, Michigan, Nebraska, New York, North Carolina, Ohio, Rhode Island, Pennsylvania, Tennessee, Texas and Utah. The often-quoted myth by pro-pit bull groups that pit bulls "do not bite more than other breeds" is categorically false. In addition to the fact that pit bulls are the leading biters, the pit bull bite is also the most likely dog bite to inflict serious and disfiguring injury.
