| | I have so many Pro-Pit bull things...bumper stickers on my car, articles on the internet...I love pit bulls. I think they are beautiful, awesome dogs! I've never had a pure pit bull, but I have had two pit/shepehrd/rotty mixes. Both great, beautiful dogs. Thanks for sharing! What are you dogs names? | | | | | | |

| | That all depends on the handler.They are good pets.The mean one are the way they are ,because the owner don't know how to handle the dog.They need to be socialized and have time spent with them by a caring human. | | | |

| | I believe that. It was featured once on TV and they said that pitbulls are actually one of the sweetest types of dogs. And like you said, its just a matter of how you raise them. | | | | | | |

| | Pitbull are wonderful dogs.It really depends on the handler of them.Inexperienced people have trouble with them.I think it depends on how they are cared for.I think if you spend time with the dog,exercise it and bond with it,definately socialize it.They will be very friendly.The "Little Rascals "dog is a pittbull.They are good with children. | | | | | | |

| | I watch the Dog Whisperer,and he owna alot of pitt bulls that are very friendly,he says it's not the dog,it's the owner.Any dog you do not exercise will act destructively.I don't like people bad mouthing the breed when they know nothing about them.It is the owner,a bad dog becomes aggressive when they don't get socialized and exercised,not out in the yard but long walks.The Dog Whiperer recommends long walks,that makes the dog bond with humans.They don't like to be thrown out in the yard.Putting them out in the yard isn't gonna exercise them and socialize them.I don't own a pitt bull but I do like the breed.I know people that have good ones and that's because they socialized it as a puppy.The one pitt I know doesn't even bark at strangers when they come on the property. | | | |

| | Sorry...I like pits myself, but it is NOT how you raise them. Case in point: Back in November, in the town of Flora Illinois about 20 miles from where I live, an 83 year old woman that was walking her poodle had her throat ripped out by a pit when the pit attacked her poodle and she attempted to rescue her dog. She bled out before help could arrive. This was NOT a mistreated, vicious dog...this was a three year old family dog that had not been abused and was good with children. But for some reason, which we will never know, it turned into a killer: http://www.advocatepress.... | | | | | | |

| | well also.. If you dont ever bring dogs by other animals no matter the type, they would be more likely to attack another dog. how do yo know it wasnt a sheltered or abused dog? | | | |

| | I followed the link and read the entire article...and it said, “There is no available information that it had ever been trained by its owner to attack or fight..." It also said he got the dog from a breeder at 6 months, pit bulls can start being trained to fight before that age, so who really knows what it went through with the breeder? And maybe the dog was protecting his home from these 'trespassers' that he did not know. The pit bull may see two strange dogs and a human as a threat to his home and family. We can't really ever be sure what the dog was thinking, so we can't be sure it had to do with the breed. But you did say you like pit bulls so we still agree on that. | | | |

| | Yes, they got it at 6 months and it was a three year old dog that had never been aggressive, according to neighbors...you'd think in 2 1/2 years, if it had been through any type of training to fight, it would have shown up previously... | | | |

| | What happened in this case was a terrible tragedy, but something must be said about why this previously happy, peaceful animal would do something so vicious. I have known many dogs, other than pits, that would have attacked the little poodles. They are small fluffy, who knows what the dog thought?? What I mean to say is the dog was not going after the owner until she lifted the target of aggression up to her neck, could it be the dog was not after her at all? That does NOT make it all ok or anything, just speculating on the cause and the fact that it may not have been breed specific at all. | | | |

| | in my country pit bulls are actually illegal. but I can't see any reason why they'd be worse than any other dog. in about every account I've heard of, a well brought up pit bull is no different to any other well brought up dog. there are things to be considered with fighting breeds, but they are not inclined naturally to be agressive to humans. back when dog fighting was the poor mans sport, the dogs would have to live with their human owners. no matter how evil the dog fighting practice undoubtably is. so any dog that showed agression to humans, in such overcrowded conditions, with many generations in one room, was not worth the risk of keeping. a dog that showed agression to humans was quickly culled in this environment. fighting dogs are almost invariably great with people, if they're brought up right. | | | | | | |

| | This argument is well put. A lot of people blame the dog. I blame the owner. We're the human. We're in charge of it. If we beat it until it becomes bad or train it to attack other people, it's our fault not the animals. We're supposed to be the civilized ones. We're in charge. People who train animals to be unwelcome members of society make me ill. I think that they should be punished if their dog has to be euthanized or something. But no, they get off scot free and the dog is dead. | | | | | | |

| | Not all pit bulls that attack and maim or kill someone have been mistreated or abused. | | | |

| | A pit is usually a very good dog. Some bloodlines r very agressive, with training it can be controlled. Most lines r very good and r sweet hearts. But they r a terrior, being of this breed r strong willed and protective. | | | | | | |

| | Hi, yup they are friendly if you know how to handle them. People are just afraid of them because they have the looks of a fighter, and when they sense that a person has fear they also doubted it and would probably attacked. This is the reason why. Ok pit bull is great dog, and they can bite a kilo of your feet if you will tease them. That is also true that all depends on how you train you dog. But if dogs really sense fear they likely would attack just like the police dog where when we see it we gain fear. But if you are relax, they really wont attack they just bark. | | | | | | |
