I’ve been bitten twice. Both times by GSDs. Both times my fault.

In spite of fear mongering and wives tales, I’ve dealt with a lot of Pits, never been bitten by one.

Statistically GSDs bite more people than any other breed.

What most people call “pit bulls” can be 3 different breeds, so divide the number of pit bites by 3.

Maybe the Cocker saw RumRunns video about riding through the woods on opening day of rifle deer season and saying “there’s a lot of gunfire.” Maybe she saw the video and said “I’m going to get a piece of that guy!” Slight sarcasm. I wouldn’t ride a bike through the woods opening weekend of deer season, nor would I hunt deer next to the TDF.
