Original Note:
This statistic was later refuted by a study that determined 60% of pitbulls are misidentified. The corrected percentage is 12%, slightly lower than the 20% of the US dog population that is made up of actual pitbulls. https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/26403955/ https://forevervets.com/blog/what-are-the-different-types-of-pit-bulls#:~:text=According%20to%20statistics%2C%20there%20are,owned%20in%20the%20United%20States.
