Neither his dad or I have owned a dog before, however we want it to be his dog as much as possible. He is 4, what kind of things can we get him to do to feel responsibility for the animal? TIA

I don't believe pitbulls are inherently bad dogs. The issue is that if they do bite, they cause MAJOR damage. The decision to have this type of dog around a 4 year old (much less give this type of dog to a 4 year old) is completely fricking stupid.
Yes, a chihuahua may bite him as well. He'll have a bite mark, not a fricking missing face, dumbasses.
ETA: Why can they not have children taken out of a home for idiotic decisions such as this?

Please tell me you didn't pay for the pit bull, considering there are 10 puppies at any rescue center.

Yeah that's a pit bull buddy, good luck with your god child's face

I'd be more worried about helping the parents with funeral expenses at this point.

I don't have any advice to help you get him to feel responsibility, because I think getting him his "own dog" is fricking stupid, but here are some tips for raising a pit bull from a puppy.
Constantly be socializing it with other dogs. Pits are prone to being more aggressive to other dogs, but this can be remedied from early and constant socialization.
Bring the dog around people a lot. They love people, but if the only people they know are the family it could get protective.
Get the dog fixed.
Give the dog love, but make sure you are the alpha.
Don't let the kid raise the dog. This is a terrible dog for a kid to try to raise at 4 years old. Especially with parents who have never raised a dog.
Don't crop the ears or dock the tail.
Edit: Regardless of what the OT thinks, Pit Bulls raised correctly are great family dogs and great around kids.

You might want to call the homeowners & let them know their insurance will need to know so they can drop them. That's how you get rid of that dog

I have an amstaff. She is the GOAT dog.

Close down your meth lab. A pit bull, a meth lab and a 4-year-old is too much potential danger for one trailer.
