On April 22, 2017 I was Attacked (Mauled) by a Pit Bull and I had to get stitches and I have Severe nerve damage and my wrist hurts ALL THE TIME When the weather changes or when I bump it on something or when I write too much. I have Cynophobia (Mostly Around Pit Bulls), and PTSD.

Angel - I am sorry that you had such a traumatic experience.  I can only relate a little because I was bitten by a cockier spaniel when I was a little kid and it took me many years to get over my fear of dogs. Even now I am wary of dogs I don't know especially pit bulls.  The great thing is we have a dog which I love and it provides so much joy in our lives. I hope and pray that you will eventually recover also from your experience.

That's great Angel!  Interesting combination to say the least and I can imagine he/she will make a lovely addition to your life.

I can see why you feel the way you do. I would probably feel the same, too. I have been lucky and never been attacked by anything. Pit Bulls do have a bad rep; however, for now, I'm in the neither camp. Hope you eventually have a full recovery. happy.png

im in the camp that says it is the owner at fault , pitbulls like all dogs can be a great family pet , but they need good owners ,

i just think of some of my mates who have this breed as their friend /pet , and how friendly those dogs are when i visit , they just have a bad rep and granted in some cases tha was earned but its all down to training , a dog need not be aggressive unless you give it no other option

i can remember being new at cc , and one of the things that made me stay at the site was the opportunity via forums to engage in the social aspect of the site , so if the op is new here and has posted their first forum piece i would ask where is the harm ?
