Dickey is a contributing editor at The Oxford American and the author of Pit Bull: The Battle over an American Icon.[3][4] Her book attempted to show that negative views about the breed have often been shaped by misunderstandings of pit bulls and their history.[5] This led to her unwittingly becoming a "heroine" for the pro-pit bull community and the target of threats and harassment from those who see her as an "apologist" for a so-called "vicious animal."[6]
