Description [EDIT]
To anyone that's reading this and has commented on the breed, I appreciate everyone's positive discussion. Hell, I thank the negatives ones for giving me a chance to vent and further prove you wrong ^^. But thanks all in all. I'm just hoping that people will stop and read mine and your discussions and they actually see that they aren't all bad, and that it's the owner's fault if they lash out at people. Maybe we can reach out and make some kind of difference <3.
[/EDIT]

The comment posted below is a comment made by ~AshyKitty . It touched my heart the first time I read it and sent chills down my spine. Honestly, ~AshyKitty couldn't be more right...and if people did their research, they would see the same;;

"Every year pit bull terriers are responsible for the death of 3 people.
40 children a year drown in 5 gallon water pails, in your lifetime you are 16 times more likely to drown in a 5 gallon water pail then be killed by a pit bull.
Pit bulls were known as the number 1 family dog in the 20th century, but the very same qualities that make this breed such a wonderful pet, are also valued by those who use them as fighting dogs, training them in brutal methods, some even going as far as to sew bottle caps under the dogs skin to ensure they're in constant pain, to make then more aggressive. ((AshyKitty note: some people also feed pitbulls gun powder constantly from a very young age to upset their stomachs, therefore causing them pain and causing them to become viscious))
150 people a year are killed by falling coconuts, making you 60 times more likely to be killed by a palm tree then by a put bull.
Pit bull puppies, ones that have never fought before are often killed because their parents were fighters, since when did it become guilty until proven innocent?
According to the American Canine Temperament Testing Association, 82.5% of the American Pit Bull Terriers that took the temperament test passed, compared to a 77% passing rate for all breeds on average. In the test a dog is placed in a series of confrontational situations. The first sign of aggression or panic is a failure of the test. Pit Bulls have achieved the fourth highest passing rate of all 122 breeds tested.
It is more then half a million times more likely that a human will kill a pit-bull then the other way around.
For every pit bull that kills, there are 10.5 million that don't.
Most pit bulls are killed by they're owners because they REFUSE TO FIGHT in dogfights.
So millions of pit bulls are being blamed for the actions of .94% of the breed."


Anyway, this would be my pitbull, Doobie, and me. I've helped change this dog's life around so much. Along with two other pitbulls, and a pitbull pup, who later got sold, then died shortly afterwards.

Any dog has the potential to be aggressive and dangerous if they are abused and mis-handled by irresponsible people. I hate that people blame the dogs when it is the owner's responsibility to love and train their animal. In the same way that I hate a dog being blamed and even killed for biting when 99% of the time it is either because the dog has been mistreated or even conditioned to act that way by the owner or because the dog was provoked (through physical means like poking/hitting or because the dog was trying to protect it's owner)

Pitbulls are just one of many mis-judged breeds due to idiots who use them as weapons and trophies.
They can be such loving dogs. I have met beautiful Pitbulls full of love and playful joy that wouldn't ever cause harm. But people are still afraid of them, they just see this muscular dog that's been portrayed as a fighter and even a killer.
In my country a Pitbull is one of several 'dangerous' breeds that can be removed on the spot by an official and if the dog is unlicensed there's a chance it can be put down regardless of whether or not it's caused harm or been raised as a family pet; it's horrible.

Captainblackwing [2013-02-12 01:10:26 +0000 UTC]

I love PitBulls! They are one of my favorite breeds. I think its crazy that ppl call them a dangerous breed, cuz back in the day they were know as "Nanny Dogs", meaning that people TRUSTED pitbulls to WATCH OVER their BABIES and CHILDREN when the adults WERE NOT AROUND. How did people end up thinking they were monsters.

RainGirl2009 [2012-05-30 09:58:21 +0000 UTC]

... I adopted my now 1 year old pit, Magik when she was only 3 months old, and she one of the best things tha'ts ever happened to me. She is SO gentle with my kids, and is SUCH a camera hog its unbelievable! She's a part of my family, and I couldn't see life being the same without her. I mean, my kids pull her ears, my daughter will just randomly go up to her and hug her around the neck (not chocking her, but holding), they pull her tail, dress her up while they play dress up, lay on the floor with her, watch T.V with her, hell, they even use her as a pillow from time to time! And not ONCE has she EVER snapped at them! Not even after accidentally stepping on her tail! Hell, when we go to the river, and the kids start getting too close to the deep end (There deep end, not Magiks) she will give a few warning barks, and if they don't come back toward the shallows, she'll jump right into the water, and continue to swim around them in circles, pushing them until there back to about waist deep. From MY understanding of the American Canine Temperament Testing Association, you're far more likely to be bitten by a Chihuahua than a pit! I mean seriously people! Punish the Deed! NOT the Breed!

btw VERY pretty dog!

I am the proud mom of 2 amazing pit bulls, 2 cats, and 3 crazy human children and they all get along fantastic. My dogs are loyal and loving and I've caught the dogs, cats, and my 1 year old daughter in a pile asleep on more than one occasion. The breed is bred to be amazing with people. Do your research THOROUGHLY before you judge them. NEVER JUDGE A BOOK BY IT'S COVER. Just because a few of them have hurt people does not mean that they're all like that.

After I had mover the pit bull muzzle off my laptop enough to read this I smiled. Love this piece! I have four dogs, a 30 lb mut, my Pit, and Border Collie mix and a Yorkie. By far the Pittie is the most social and people friendly, but it is rare that anyone wants to pet her,just because of her breed...So sad...

That being said, Pitbulls are HORRIBLY dangerous dogs...I mean...That tongue! You will drown in a puddle of drool!

A little girl came up to my pit the other day and hugged his face! He was licking her too. She had huge scars on her face and told me a dog attacked her. She said she wasn't scared though and she still loved them! I think her mom said she was only 4 years old too! Isn't it crazy that a little 4 year old girl that was attacked by a dog, understands them more than an older person who should know better.

THANK YOU!!! I wish people would relate these dogs to how some people look at other people. Some people think pit bulls are pure evil. We KNOW that it depends on their upbringing. Some people think Muslims are all terrorists. Some people KNOW that not all of them are! The stereotypes are endless. Why can't we see every dog and person as themselves as they chose to be or were raised to be instead of relying on what "most" people/animals are like?

i love pitbulls there so adorable and nice. i agree with this picture. i have one myself that we adopted a few years ago the people we adopted him from said they found him on the streets. when we brought him home he was skinny to the ribs and he was always afraid of when we were about to pet him he thought we were gonna hit him. i think we was fighting dog or he was beaten and left to die on the streets. he's so nice to us though. his name is Harvey he gained alot of wait scince we last got him but scince he runs around outside all day he still gets skinnier. i don't why people think there so aggressive when its the people who scare them and breed them for fights.

Big-O-G1982 [2011-02-01 11:15:13 +0000 UTC]

It is never being the breed of dog, yes they were breed for fighting but does a pitbull pup know right from wrong?? I am and will forever be 100% for the pitbull. Having own pits all my life and not once have I needed too put any of my pits in line. They have known what is expected of them and what is expected of me. My kids have my current set of pits in there room before they go to bed, so when they go to sleep at night they are there, when they wake up in the morning they are there.

You can train any dog to fight, it has being proven, it is just the size of the fight in the dog. If it has big enough ball to take on and think it can win for its owners love, then it will do so even if its dies doing it. All breeds of dog are loyal to the alpha eg Owner, one in charge. It is through all breeds from wolves to beagles. They will follow you to the end.

Prosecute anyone to full extent of the law for abuse of any animal.
Prosecute the deed not the breed
