Dog bite severity varies by the breed of dog, and studies have found that pit bull–type dogs have both a high rate of reported bites and a high rate of severe injuries, compared to other non–pit bull–type dogs.
Pit bull–type dogs are extensively used in the United States for dogfighting, a practice that has continued despite being outlawed. Several nations and jurisdictions restrict the ownership of pit bull–type dogs through breed-specific legislation.

Watched the video and read the article. No proof this was a pit bull.
Setting aside the breed of the dog… this dog should be put down immediately. If the owners of the dog where good owners (clearly not) they would have put it down immediately after the incident without hesitation.
