    Two things are true at once

    (1) Upbringing has an enormous impact on agression in dogs. To the point it actually can be a stronger variable in the prediction than breed.

    (2) Some breeds still have stronger tendencies towards agression.

    But I agree with this sign’s main point. Banning pitbulls won’t stop the agressive dogs problem. Because the kind of people who usually buy pitbulls raise dogs to be agressive.

      The people buying them either raise them to be aggressive or don’t even bother doing any work with them and wonder why people don’t like pitbulls.
