I just clicked on the link. You know the breed well and have fairly addressed this issue, I think.
I don’t know the breed at ALL! Like I said, I never owned one. It’s just that the rest were pretty obvious...
I have a dear friend whose dad used to breed them. She grew up with nothing BUT pits and, as any dog, including ankle biters...it. is. how. they’re. raised.
In my never ever ever so humble opinion.
Snakes are meant to be shot, BTW.
