PIT BULL STIGMA

At this point, you’re wondering why pit bulls don’t get rehomed by several shelters. The answer lies in the reputation the breed has garnered for itself over the years. According to statistics from Colorado Injury Law, pit bulls are responsible for 75% of fatal dog attacks annually.

And for shelters exempt from this rehoming rule, the process doesn’t come without challenges. After all, studies from the journal “PLoS One” revealed that pit bulls wait three times as long as other breeds before they’re adopted.
