Because of hanging around with you I should think.
Supposed to be the most human of dogs and that is why they are misunderstood and mistreated resulting in the terrifying behaviour of some of them due to said mistreatment.
It's not the least charm of a theory that it is refutable. The hundred-times-refuted theory of "free will" owes its persistence to this charm alone; some one is always appearing who feels himself strong enough to refute it - Friedrich Nietzsche

Having trained and hunted with a pack of pig hunting dogs I have a certain glare that freezes pitbulls in their tracks.
But let's be honest, the dogs aren't the problem more often than not. Their owners are.

i will have you know my dog gets treated better than some people treat their children
he doesn’t get put into suitcases or beaten to death
he is well fed and gets medical treatments when needed
he has a raincoat for walking in the rain
if i had to choose between him and most people on the planet i would choose him

i was walking him at a local reserve where dogs are allowed but must be leashed he was around 6 months old, a older woman approached with a white fluffy thing off leash that immediately ran up and attacked him, i shooed it off and she started going on at me that my dog needs socialising, i told her that her uncontrolled dog attacked mine and if it comes near us again i would drop kick it into the lake, next time i saw her she had it leashed

We were car washing one day on our drive and the dogs were playing around us, when a woman walked past on the other side of the road and her leashed fluffy white thing started barking at our lot. Most of ours just sat there and looked at it but the new staffy decided he didn't like whatever fluff bucket was yelliing and started to go remonstrate with it. The woman saw him coming and either she pulled or the fluff saw the approaching carnage but the thing flew into her arms at the same time as my dh whistled and the staffy stopped and came home tail wagging.
That too was our fault, but it didn't really matter as we were all laughing our heads off, dogs included. That little thing sure moved...

My pitbull, bearded collie cross, Stella was often attacked by random smaller dogs, she quickly learned not to trust them and was always wary with small yappy dogs.
She was really smart and clever and I liked her more than most humans I have ever met, I miss her everyday.
My budgie Lucybird would often fly round the room and land on Stella, she never even once snapped at the bird or showed any aggression, such a kindly nature.

i find the same re small yappy dogs, unfortunately mine has started getting stressed when he sees another dog coming as he’s expecting a confrontation

My dog doesn't like those little yappy dogs either; I cross the street if I spot one coming towards us. She's OK with other dogs in fact there are two who live down the street we have to stop & say hello to each time we go past.
