They are being very careful to not mention that Pit Bulls are responsible for over 50% of all Fatal Dog Bites.. With Rottweilers coming in second at around 14% of Fatal Dog Bites. We can sugar coat it all we want and pretend it is ‘The Bite not the Breed’… But the fact is it in many cases IS the breed hence the fact that even as the Story and Insurance Companies say it is not the breed they acknowledge the Role “Heredity” plays:
“A dog’s tendency to bite depends on such factors as heredity, obedience training, socialization, health, and the victim’s behavior. ”
lets stop giving the Breeds that are most responsible for the True Damage in terms of Fatalities a Free Pass.. Lets Do Nationally what Maryland has now had the Courage to do.. Hold Pit Bull Owners to a Higher Standard.. Or better yet.. Eliminate the Breed altogether.

Maybe P&C cos. should consider applying a separate large deductible such as $10,000 to injuries or damages caused by dogs or other pets.
