    Please don’t misunderstand, I don’t have any hatred for this or any other animal.

    It’s just doing what it does, it has as much right to exist as we do, if anything - more, because we bred it to be this way.

    But practically speaking we can’t have a dangerous breed like this just be let loose like this, and I don’t trust people enough to be safe with it, same way I wouldn’t trust most people with a tiger etc.

    We fucked up by breeding dogs in many ways, from breeds that can barely breathe and have all sorts of awful health complications to breeds that are too violent to be kept around humans safely. We have to undo our fuck ups, even when it means we have to ban the breed from common households and in some cases even put down dogs, even though it’s messed up, it’s not their fault, it’s ours, and there’s not much we can do but clean up this mess and try to learn and be better and more responsible about breeding animals.

    I take no pleasure in saying this nevermind thinking about what has to be done, but I don’t see any other way. I’m really quite sorry. Our entire species should be.
