Just read an article in the local paper, about 2 texas rednose APBT that roamed town and jumped the fence into the danish broholmer dogs yard. Broholmer is an old original danish dog of the molosse/mastiff type dating back to the viking age.
They apparantly attacked him, but he fought back with all he got and mauled one of the PB so much it died from the injuries, lower leg bitten clean off among other severe damages. The other PB had only minor injuries but both PB´s were exhausted,submissive and docile when picked up by the police later.
The Danish broholmer had minor damages to the skin around the neck but otherwise unhurt. The surviving PB were put to sleep.

Makes one wonder if APBT has been bred to big for its original purpose. A real PB should never weigh more than 40 ponds if used for dogfighting.
Still I detest dogfighting even though I own a supposed dogfighting breed and what it shows is that all dogs are potentially dogkillers race aside. And that you should make sure your dogs does not roam around freely.
Care for your pet.
