Talk:Pit bull

message: After the line:
Some studies have argued that the type is not disproportionately dangerous, offering competing interpretations on dog bite statistics. Independent organizations have published statistics based on hospital records showing pit bulls are responsible for more than half of dog bite incidents among all breeds despite comprising 6% of pet dogs.
Add the sentence:
However, DNA analysis of mixed-breed dogs conducted by the company Embark suggests that pit bulls may comprise a greater share of the U.S. dog population, with nearly 15% of tested dogs demonstrating either American Pit Bull Terrier or American Staffordshire Terrier ancestry.

replies: text: I'd probably not want to make this edit, if there were further discussion, because there would have to be some WP:SYNTH to connect the proposed new source to the sources now on the page. Also, the proposed new source is essentially a commercial for the company. --Tryptofish (talk) 23:46, 28 December 2023 (UTC)

message: The American Pit Bull Terrier is not an umbrella term said by the UKC and ADBA also the ABKC they’re a breed bred for blood sport and are prone to dog and animal aggression. They can come in every color but Merle and have a deep and rich history. Some popular apbt breeders are Del Manto Dogs. The American Bully came from a apbt line called “Razor Edge”. There are also books on the breeds history (apbt) “Dogs of Velvet and Steel”. Most Put Bulls found in shelters only share a small percentage of the true apbt potential. They were bred to be animal agressive and for “game” .

message: The third paragraph under "Breed-specific legislation" includes the clause "and the American city of Miami" in a list of jurisdictions with "pit bull" bans, but this ban was removed in 2023. I recommend this part of the sentence be removed.
