I still don't want a pit bull.

One of our neighbor's pit bull puppy attacked their poodle, killing it with the clench of its jaws around the poodle's neck. They were attempting to teach the pit to not act aggressively towards the smaller dog while eating. Without growling, the pit suddenly lunged at the tiny poodle, killing it instantly. The owners had to use brute force to get the dog to release the now dead dog.

Sadly, they're giving the dog away instead of taking appropriate actions to ensure this, or worse, doesn't happen again.

Eaugh, that's awful. I don't understand why people get a dog that's bred to be a killing machine and then try to turn it into a house pet. Not that I haven't wanted to throttle a yappy little poodle occasionally myself....

That's awful. Poor puppy. I have two pit bulls myself and would be devastated if either one did something like that. I think owners need to be more responsible and have to take extra precautions with the breed.
