@thatguyoverthere @BowsacNoodle Never thought about the clipped ears in that way. Good to remember.

I have seen so many of those stories, the pitbulls attacking, supposedly out of character, that I would not risk it. It's sad when a breed has been abused and neglected to the point of dangerous antisocial behavior, used culturally in a different context than what an adopter would hope. The safety of children comes first in the hierarchy, not the cuteness of dogs.

I knew a girl that was mutilated by a dog bite as a young child. Broken arms are not minor. Dogs are serious.
