Why are Pitbull bites more scary than other dog breeds?

Origin of pitbull

Pitbull is a dog breed originating from America, commonly raised in Vietnam. This is a ferocious dog, at the top of the dangerous dog breed rankings, likened to a "cold-blooded killer". For many people, Pitbull is truly a "horror" every time it is mentioned.

In the late 18th century, Pitbulls were introduced to America for guarding or guarding houses, where they helped homeowners in raising livestock, hunting and preventing theft. In addition, this animal is also noted for its loyalty and friendliness towards humans, especially children. From here, this dog breed was nicknamed "nanny dog".

Recognizing the strength and endurance of this creature, Americans widely bred pitbulls for the purpose of serving the recreational game of "dog fighting". Although this action was soon banned in 1935, Pitbulls were also trained to become very violent and aggressive.

In addition to historical factors, the owner's upbringing process will also contribute significantly to the aggressiveness of Pitbulls. Accordingly, Pitbulls will become extremely aggressive if raised in an environment of being beaten, starved, or trained to hunt.

For many people, Pitbull dogs are truly "horror" every time they are mentioned.

Nowadays, Pitbulls have become more gentle, as they are trained to be good friends with their owners and children in the family. However, their aggressive nature cannot be completely lost over time.

Why are Pitbull bites more scary than other dog breeds?

Dan Tri newspaper quoted Outdoor Dogfun as saying that with ancestors being a fierce and aggressive breed of dog, Pitbulls today have been bred to have very strong jaws. The bite force from the jaws of a Pitbull can be about 235 psi (1 psi is equivalent to 6,895 N/m2).

With such a bite force, Pitbull can break a cow's thigh bone with just one bite.

In addition to the strong bite force, the impact of a Pitbull bite also depends on two factors.

The first is a strong bite with strong shaking. Some experts who study Pitbulls say that Pitbull bites often cause more serious injuries than other dog breeds. This breed tends to attack muscles deep in the body, biting hard and shaking back and forth to tear the tissue.

Pitbulls are large dogs, and the combination of biting and shaking will make the wound worse.

The second factor that makes Pitbulls so scary is that they don’t let go after biting. Their extremely strong jaw muscles help Pitbulls bite and hold on tight, preventing their opponents from escaping.

Victims often cannot escape the strong jaws of Pitbulls. Without help from others, the victim will die from blood loss. This is the reason why Pitbull attacks often lead to death.
