they are so cute.My pit bull would check my son's room at night.Made sure he was asleep and if all was well she would sit in front of his door.They do believe in guarding there space.Most of the problems come from trying to make them tuff or mean.I never even saw my pit ever show his teeth to my son.She would nugg him with her mouth(closed)if he tries to pull her tail etc.Excellent dog such a bad rep in the USA

YEAH I KNOW! MY PUPPY NOW IS A BIG BABY! HE DOESNT REALLY BARK OR GROWL. EVEN WHEN HE IS PLAYING HE DOESNT GROWL. HE HAS NEVER EVER BIT MY BABY. NOT EVEN PLAYING. HE HAS ALWAYS JUST LICKED HER. :) I KNEW SOMEONE BEFORE WHO TRIED TO GIVE ME THERE 2 PITBULLS, IT DIDNT WORK OUT THOUGH, THEY WERE TRYING TO MAKE THEM FIGHTERS AND IT DIDNT TURN OUT RIGHT FOR THEM. WELL THE 2 PITS HAD SCARS ON THEM, THEY WERE SCARED YA KNOW THE WHOLE NINE YARDS. I HATE PEOPLE WHO THINK THEY R BIG SHOTS. YA KNOW WHAT I MEAN??

I think so too. I have one and the breed is excellent it's just a few stupid people who give them a bad reputation by training them to be mean. Pits are some of the sweetest dogs ever.

My puppy! - Aint she just ADORABLE?
I think its sad that they are banning them all over. Its the way you raise a dog. I could raise a poodle to be mean but they arent banned! Pitbulls are banned where i live and i HATE IT! my dog is 1/2 weiner dog and 1/2 pitbull! She was a stray and i took her to the vet and the vet said that they would have to put down a different breed otherwise i would have to get rid of my pup!

AWW...THAT IS SAD. YOU STILL HAVE HER RIGHT? I HATE HOW PEOPLE DISCRIMINATE AGAINST THE BREED. IT IS DEF HOW PEOPLE MAKE THEM OUT TO BE. PITBULLS ARE SOOOOO SWEET AND INNOCENT!:) YOUR PUPPY IS SOO CUTE BY THE WAY!

I definately love the breed. They are such awesome dogs. I would rather not own another breed, but my hubby likes other dogs as well, so we'll probably have another breed sometime to go along with out Pits. But for now, we have 3, going on 4 Pit Bulls. :)

PITBULLS ARE A VERY AWESOME BREED. THEY DO HAVE A BAD REP BUT ANY DOG CAN GET MEAN AND TURN ON PEOPLE. IT IS THEY WAY THEY ARE BROUGHT UP AND RAISED. RIGHT? :)

If they are properly trained and cared for, I'm sure they can make great pets. However, I do believe they should always be approached with caution, as I've heard of even great pets suddenly turning bad.

YES THEY COULD TURN BUT WHAT DOG CANT? I HAVE NEVER HAD ONE OF MY OWN DOGS TURN ON ME. MY DOGS ARE ALL BROUGHT UP WITH A LOT OF LOVE AND TRAINING. ALL THEY WANT IS TO BE LOVED BACK.

oh my god. i have a tattoo on my arm of my pitty, stella. she was the best thing that ever happened to me, she asved me from so many different forces of evil. she was the best companion i ever had. i was fortunate enough to breed her one time, while i had her, and that was the one thing in my life so far that was actually just pure, life. ginving birth to puppies is the greatest thing ever. helping her take care of them, helping her to understnad that not all of them were going to live.. it was her first litter, so she was alittle confused about the stillborns.. anyhoo.. they arent killers, theyre loving creatures just like cocker spainials.. which are KNOWN to attack children, but nobody hears about that on the news. or dalmations.. they're mean as hell to children as well. bottom line any dog can attack if its provoked. most people that own pitbulls are s***bags, and shouldnt even own a living creature, so you shouldnt be suprised when that dog comes out crazy.. pitbulls have the brain capacity of a five year old child. if one child was mean, and fought with all the other children in the class, would you blame the child, say, oh well that child must have been born evil, he has no chanc eof being normal, and leaving a life filled with trust and love. no way, thats insane. you would immediatly ask where is this child living, in whose care is he in, what abuse has he been subjected too, has he been fed adequetly? all these questions to make sure no foul play was amist.. but not for a compainion of someone. somebody mate. somebodies everything.

Love me - Damian my 4 month APBT
I've never met a pit bull i didn't like. I've had 3 of my own. Sampson (pit/sharpie mix), was my hardest because he could climb anything he could grip. Cain All white 100% APBT tamest dog ever. would sit and stay off a leash in front of other dogs playing all day untill released to play. Damian My present dog 4 month old APBT is awsome and catching on to training fast but still has a few issues like lay down, he use to come any time he was called but now likes to play catch me, any idieas on how to fix that

I agree! I have 2 pitbull house pets, they are wonderful companions; very attentive to your needs. They love to cuddle and insist on your happiness at all times. A real trip they are. Not at all like all the bad publicity they get. You know, I actually told my huband I would divorce him if he brought a 'pitbull' in our home; I was so brainwashed by all I had seen and heard about pitbulls! I feel really stupid now, and I see how wrong you can be. My pitbull is the best dog I have had. I love them so much, they're 2 males and like perfect gentlemen (most-times), since they have never been fought and treated well, they are well adjusted and a joy to own.

I love animals, dogs in particular, and so I like pitbulls too. They are really special dogs, they are strong and obedient. Unfortunately some beasts (not human beings) train them to fight making them as aggressive war machines. If you love them, they will never attack anybody.
