@ Alaska,
Im sure that was a frightening experience, and yes dogs (all dogs should be controled with more than a whistle) I guess your seeing more pitbulls because they are just plain and simple great companion dogs. I would recomened that you get your wife some strong pepper spray/ bear repelent. I have bought some for my wife, shes a little woman who doesnt care much for guns, and scared of anything four legged or no legged...lol, bless her big heart. Im not trying to get you to like pitbulls but i've had two. One which lived to be 14 yrs old, and another i have right now which is 5. In my 19 years with my pitts and other peoples pitts i have never been bit, or seen anyone get bit. But i have a huge fear of german shepards and dobermans, lol not because they are bad dogs, but the only few that have bit me..lol.
