you need to do more research on the American Pit bull.. cause if you train right be nice to the owner and other people. pit bulls are people dogs.. my pit bull want attention from everyone. now the one that you have heard about are the ones that have been trained wrong or neglected.. pit bulls i think are one best breeds in the world.. i mean 83 percent of all pit bull passed the tempermant test they did better the golden retriever, seriously look the info up and you to might be pit bull owner

You have to do more research on this breed. Huskies and Sheps are great dogs, but Pit's score way better on temperament testing, actually they score right near the top. Pit's used to be called the nanny dog in the first half of the century because they were actually used to "babysit". What happened was is the thugs, punks and cowards that realized how loyal Pits were and would do anything for their owner used that great trait against them for fighting and attacking, this could happen to any dog though. This has not happened to the vast majority of Pits. They are some of the most caring, goofy and nicest dogs you will come across. And as far as the ugly dog thing, you are by far in the vast minority in this thinking. They are beautiful dogs and have some of the most unique marking of any breed.

I raised an aligator pit from a puppy. If anyone knows that breed they get pretty big. Anyways, I moved and gave him to a friend of ours that live out in the country, he has never showed in aggression towards a human being. When he was about 1 years old he got stolen off my property, and the teens that took him tried to get him to fight and he wouldn't. We got him back and he still was not mean at all after being put through hell for 6 weeks. He is on a tether at my friends house and will not attack a dog unless that dog jumps on him first. Rocky will be nice and loving until the other dogs start it then he will finish the job. He has killed one dog, but it was over food and the other dog was littler and I don't think Rocky did it intentionally. He was full grown and I got a Boston Terrier puppy and he loved that little dog. Most of the time the dogs that start the fight with Rocky are labs. I love labs but have seen some mean ones. Research next time before posting a stupid question. Thats what the internet it for, use it.

UGHHHHHH! German Shepherd and Huskies can be just as deadly as a pit bull. And no pit bulls are not the toughest dogs on Earth. Try looking up the Bully Kutta.

I like pitbulls. I have met some very good-looking and well behaved/sweet dogs. They need the right owner as a lot of these type of dogs do because they are ultra smart. It's a dog. It's not a person. It's not going to do just do something because you said so. It has its own language. Responsible owners really understand this and take it to heart. Don't let a few rotten apples spoil this wonderful breed. Any dog can be a threat to a person just like any person can be a threat to another person. It's just not black and white.
I've never been attacked by a pitbull or any other dog. Maybe it's because I've been around animals my entire life. I understand dogs, to an extent. It's not that complicated.
