PetsRe: Pitbull Or Rottweiler: Which Is More Dangerous? by kdhodges: 8:46pm On Nov 08, 2016
I can tell you all that if you have to ask this question, you are asking the wrong question. If you have any large or medium large dog, you have the potential for a grave tragedy should anything go left. Pit bulls do not bite down with 2000 psi of force (more like average 200 - 500 psi of force typical of dogs their size). The difference is in their bite, hold, and shake ferocity when the do attack (and ability to wade through mountains of pain in a sheer determination to come out on top). Nevertheless, if you work everyday (and I mean everyday) to socialize your dog and always respect that he is an animal that does not speak human, you will learn him/her and he/she will learn of you. Discourage aggressive behaviors and make yourself the pack leader every time. When you can no longer provide the leadership required to keep the dog balanced, surrender him/her. When you can no longer exrcise, feed, and or provide vet care for the dog, surrender him/her. The potential is always there for some kind of violent confrontation, even under the best of circumstances (you cannot control all external factors in environment, mouse running wild, cat running wild, thunder, fireworks, blackouts, some unknown sickness to the dog, or just a misread of cues from the animal), so you must be vigilant. Never leave a pitbull or Rottweiler around children, the sickly or elderly, or unknown environments full of people and/or animals. If there were ever a chance for an attack with the greatest liability, that would be the worst timing. The pit bull is nearly unstoppable because of his unwavering determination to dominate and the Rottweiler would be unstoppable because of his sheer size.
