Pit Bulls can make good pets - when they are trained and loved by intelligent owners. This animal apparently was not trained nor was it owned by an intelligent caring person.
Bully breeds were originally bred specifically to bite (primarily livestock). I have owned several breeds on the banned list. They require extra attention to break the bite instinct. Too often idiots (mostly those involved in criminal activities) use these animals as guard dogs without training them.
Bully breeds have a strong prey drive and a very high tolerance for pain. Mace (which KPD doesn't use) and pepperspray do not stop these dogs like they will Fifi the poodle. The Taser will slow them down for a few seconds and then the dog will be more aggressive than before. The most effective non-lethal tool is a CO2 fire extinguisher.
I would rather have seen the irresponsible owner shot than the dog. But the owner caused the animals death by his own irresponsible actions.
