Since you raised concerns about the website being biased I emailed them and here is the response:
Our critics -- pit bull owners and pit bull advocates -- have long attacked us. We document US fatal dog maulings, all of them and all breeds. The CDC stopped doing this in 1998.

Combat their broad, generalized and baseless "bias" claims with specifics. These types cannot offer specifics nor can they refute them.
For instance, "Do let me know "which" fatal dog attack you allege this group invented? The death of 9-year old Tyler Trammell-Huston, killed by his sister's three darling pit bulls? The death of 6-year old Cameron Hartfield, killed by a pit bull his mother was trying to rehome? The death of 7-year old Jayden Henderson, killed by her neighbor's two pit bulls, whose owners tried to get the dogs returned to them afterward? Which death is made up? Which death did DogsBite.org say was inflicted by a pit bull but was not? Every single fatal dog attack on that website is backed by numerous citations.

Our credentials --
"Research and statistical data from DogsBite.org has exceptional credibility with appellate court justices, surgeons and medical practitioners, attorneys who champion and represent dog mauling victims, the injured victims themselves, and the many local, regional and national news agencies which cite their data, including Forbes, Newsweek and more. Their data collection method has long been online as well:

In addition to the incident I posted involving the children on a farm I had a separate incident prior to that that I had to use my 1911 to stop an imminent pit bull attack on myself. I got the dog to stop about 20 feet from me by bullets close enough to the dog that if it had dodged in the wrong direction it would have been hit.
Neither of these instances were gang bangers or criminals but average everyday dog owners and Ive never been in LE.
