I have noticed around here that many many people have pits or pit mixes. Most of them are whatever we call Yuppies these days, well dressed, out walking them, taking them to dog parks etc. I wondered why, with all the bad press, and it occurred to me. These days it’s trendy to rescue a dog from the shelter, having a purebred is not *enlightened* enough in our new *green* culture. And, if you go to the shelters, they are bursting at the seams with pits and pit crosses.
Having said that, I’ve not met one yet that was anything other than a typical nice dog.
Yep, we’ve got pits and pit mixes in spades at our local shelters. Was at local rescue a few weeks ago and woman walked in w/ a pit bitch who was just drying up and asked if the rescue knew anyone who wanted some pittie puppies...they can’t give them away here.
