Seattle Pitbull Attack Victim's Rights Attorney
One of the most popular dog breeds in the nation, the American Pit Bull Terrier tops the list of the most dangerous dog breeds because, when compared to other dog breeds, death rates caused by Pitbull breed dogs are far higher. In fact, 34 U.S. dog bite-related fatalities occurred in 2015, and pit bulls contributed to 82% of these deaths.
Due to their typically aggressive nature, pit bull breeds are even banned from being bred or owned in certain areas by local and state governments.
