Scotti added that recent cases of dog aggression were the result of “the incapacity of the owner in controlling certain breeds”.

“Choosing a 90 kg dog like a Neapolitan mastiff without being properly prepared, for example, is like giving a Ferrari to someone who has just passed their driving licence,” he said.
Like giving an M-16 to a chimpanzee
or
Like giving control of a nuclear plant to Homer Simpson
or
Like giving the Toastmaster podium to George Bush
or
Like giving the right to vote to Democrats to give the "football" to Obama!
I totally agree.
We have a Pit and at almost 5 months old he is already 40 lbs. I am 5’1 and small but I am the ALPHA in the relationship. Diesel minds me better then my larger and louder husband because I MAKE him mind. If he fails to obey he gets a jerk from this nifty little collar that pinches like a momma dog correcting a pup. It is not cruel, it doesn’t break the skin (it’s a smooth plastic) but it’s enough of a correction that he is starting to obey without the collar. Dogs are pack animals and respond to a leader and has a responsible owner, I MUST be the leader. Our neighbors love Diesel too - he gives lots of slobbery kisses to whoever he can!
Pits are not for everyone. I was raised on a large farm with a Grandfather who had a magic touch with animals, even the big bulls would lick his face, so I don’t have much animal fear (something dogs can sense). I can’t stand those taco bell dogs and cockers though, nasty snarky little things they are.
