A few years ago I looked into adopting a shelter dog and all of them for a 50 mile radius were pitbull or pit mixes.

You should not be scared of pit mixes. They are generally sweeter than chihuahuas, love kittens and children. Heelers on the other hand....

Same in my area. PetSmart was having an adoption event in the parking lot a couple of years ago. About 2 dozen dogs. All but one were pits.

No kidding. I had an almost identical experience as you. No “normal” dogs in the shelters. Just cages full of potential killers.

When I looked at shelter dogs available they are advertised as terriers and upon further scrutiny, they are pill bulls.
