So sorry for your loss, Belmont. It's like losing a family member......and you are so right about pit bulls.
I have to laugh at people who use that tired cliche' that "There are no bad dogs, just bad owners" Nothing could be further from the truth. Pit bulls account for over 70% of dog attack fatalities (128 in the last 7 years) even though they are only 5% of the dog population. They are born and bred to kill things....it is in their DNA and nothing can change that.
Last year, according to Dogbites, 8 of them actually killed their OWNERS
We've noticed, when visiting Florida that pit bulls are the favorite of gangbangers and other losers. The city of Miami has actually banned them. Good for them.
Hope you do contact their landlord and insurance company and, again, sorry for your loss.
