Spend a little time on the O-T and you will find out all kinds of things about you and your lifestyle you didn`t know.

Have you ever been around a bird dog, with no training it still has an instinct to find birds. Same with a retriever it still has a desire to retrieve. Some individual dogs have a stronger desire to hunt and retrieve than others. Some of these dogs might live in an environment, such as a appartment, with little exposure to encourage these instincts, but they still have them.

Pitts have these same traits, only it is aggressiveness. Some dogs might be less aggressive but deep down these dogs have been breed to be aggressive...

cant say i have ever been around any bird dogs but i have been around a lot of the "dangerous" breeds who have been bred proper.

i have coonhounds and curs and my best family dog is an american/pit. she is all around good dog.

trust me i know about the pitts that will turn on you but its all about breeding and handlers in my opinion.

Shut your face

I have been around several that were good dogs. Usually it is how they are raised.

However, I will never have one and will never have one around my kids, simply because of the fact that if they are triggered and decide to attack there is almost no stopping them. They are extremely strong and vicious fighters. After all, they are animals and you cannot 100% control them, so there is always a chance that something will set them off.

They get such a bad rap because so many of their owners are white/black trash. They either raise them to fight, or mistreat them causing them not to trust/love humans, or they are left to roam and fend for themselves, causing them to become like wild animals. Most of the time it is these types that attack (but not always).
