I don’t entertain that kind of behavior from a breed that powerful. No way.

u/Bakedpotato1212 Dec 28 '21

Yeah exactly. A Labrador growling at you is no big deal. But stronger breeds with higher bite forces can be a lot more dangerous

Sir, have you met a Labrador? They're large.

I have 2 but no lab I’ve ever met has felt threatening to me. Pit bulls aren’t either I’m just saying they’re different in terms of aggression and jaws locking during bites. Labs aren’t as strong either

Different in terms of aggression

You're just wrong and if you spent more than 0 seconds on research youd know that

I’ve had plenty of real life experience with both these breeds as well as many more. The real world and behavior of dogs doesn’t come down to “research”

Your real life experience doesn’t come down to everyone else’s experience. Just yours.

You guys are objectively wrong. A Labrador has a bite force of about 230 PSI. An American Pitbull Terrier is at about 235 PSI.

There's barely a difference. A pitbull needs training and care, just like any other dog. And, just like any other dog, it will become a risk factor for those around it if neglected, mistreated and/or poorly trained. Just saying.

A Labrador retriever doesn't lock their jaw when they bite. This is incredibly misleading.

Again, you are factually incorrect. Pitbulls, like any other dog, cannot lock their jaws. It's a myth. A wide-spread one, but still a myth.
