I’m tired of hearing this. There are pit bulls that have had great owners that have tweaked out and killed a child.

They were bred to fight. The greatest owner and the world can take some of it out of them, but the instinct is always there. I have a friend who got a pit bull three months before his pregnant wife was due. CRAZY

These dogs have been bred to fight to the death. They are called PIT bulls for a reason.

Me too.

There are dog haters that have had great dogs that have tweaked out and killed an innocent dog.

Exactly. They have always been a fighting breed. Sure they had other qualities but those came along. One quality is to be submissive to humans so that when the human would break up the fight, the dog wouldn’t turn on him. A traditionally bred pit bull will fawn at a human’s feet.

That secondary characteristic has been bred out of them the last few decades as people now use them as guard dogs. These aren’t our grand parents’ pit bulls. They are a new breed designed to see humans as just another kind of fighting animal.
