Unfairly known as violent killers, pit bulls have suffered from the stigma of negative media coverage that has led to city-wide bans across the country. This breed-specific legislation has torn pets away from families and caused thousands of innocent dogs to be killed in cities like Denver, Miami, Cincinnati, and San Francisco. The film investigates the myths associated with this breed, challenges the idea that they are inherently vicious, and presents eye-opening research regarding the media’s role in influencing people’s opinion on dog attacks.
