Pit Bulls

I keep hearing and reading "don't blame the dog, blame the owner". How, pray tell, does one discern between a responsibe owner and an irresponsible one?

Do I make a quick judgement as I walk my dog (or kid) down the sidewalk?

Do I assume innocence until after the maiming and then apologize for my error?

I am not in the business of gauging Pit Bull aggression levels.

As far as I'm concerned, there are Pits who have had incidents and Pits that WILL.

I suppose that makes me a "breedist". So be it.
