This is like the first vicious unprovoked dog attack that I've heard of in decades that didn't involve a pit bull.

That’s because “pit bull” is click bait. Other dogs attack far more often, it’s just not interesting to report on.

I am a dog owner and see lots of very friendly pitties at the dog park and in the neighborhood. But let's not be ignorant of actual statistics. The majority of fatal attacks in the US are by Staffies or their derivatives.
ed: yes I know fatal and the original comment was simply attack, but yeah.

Also when nobody dies or loses a leg is less newsworthy, so Pitbulls get all the stories.
