I'm so sorry that happened to your dog. I hope your dog survived and is doing ok.

Now I'm in the camp of many of them have bad owners, but also the breed was bred for fighting.

Yeah that is where I land on this, too. Some people will deny one or the other of those points... I think they're both true.

Pup is good! Wound was shallow because my girlfriend saw the pitbull coming and tried to pull our dog away at the last second. So the pitbull's teeth weren't able to get in too deep, it just wouldn't let go once it bit down. Vet did a 'clip and clean' and put her on antibiotics for a bit. I think it freaked us humans out way more than the dog.

Luckily there were some people at the dog park we had met before (our dogs befriended each other). They tried to help remove the pitbull and calmed us down after.

Really glad your dog turned out mostly okay!! That's thoughtful of the other people at the dog park, I'm glad they were there and helped you. God, I bet, I would've been so freaked out. Hope you all will never experience anything like that again!
