You are aware of how dog breeding works. I am assuming that. Maybe I’m assuming wrong.

I had a pit bull once, took it over from a friend who was forced to give it up. Good natured friendly dog. Seemed ok with kids, though I never tested that. Was never trained to fight. Ever. But when I took him for walks he would LUNGE at other dogs from his very short leash with choke collar. And it was a good natured lunge, no growling, no barking, no raising of hackles. But I just knew... he wanted to sink his teeth in one of those canines.

And he was a cat killer. Which is the reason I was given him. My friends wife’s cat was found in little pieces around the house. It was get rid of the dog or say goodbye to the wife.

I used to play ball with that dog. Had a thick rubber ball and when he latched on I could pick up the ball and swing the dog in the air and he wouldn’t let go. Later he would give it back to me so I could bounce it against the wall again so he could try to grab it out of the air. He would play past exhaustion. He had so much heart. And so much bite. It was his breeding.

What I know of pit bulls is going by what other pit bull owners have told me.

Others have told me one thing, you tell me another.

Others swear on a stack of bible as high as the Empire State building that’s it’s the owners’ fault. Now you are saying it the breed.

I have no way of knowing since I’ve only really owned a Husky and I know what lovable Chaos they are.

Get my point?
