i don't think pit bulls are aggressive. i would like to adopt one
I guess it depends on how their raised, they do have fighting in their blood as they were originally developed as fighting dogs.
really? I didn't know that. Is dog fighting legal?
No it is illegal in the US, though still exists in the underground world.
how sad :( I don't understand how can people enjoy seeing other animals fight?
I don't know, they must be sick people, and they do it for the money too. I know pit bulls are a common breed in dog fighting rings, probably why people associate them with aggressiveness.
that breaks my heart. pit bulls are so beautiful
They are quite majestic, it's interesting how the term pit bull is often used loosely to describe different breeds of dogs with similar physical characteristics sometimes.
really? I didn't know that, can you tell me more?
but the morphological variation among bully breed dogs makes it difficult for even experts to visually identify them as distinct. While mixed-breed dogs are often labeled as pit bulls if they have certain physical characteristics, such as a square-shaped head or bulky body type, visual identification of mixed-breed dogs is not recommended by the scholarly community. Some of the breeds which often get mistaken for pit bulls (but which are not genetically pit bulls) include the Cane Corso, Dogo Argentino, Dogue de Bordeaux, and others
have said small dogs, kittens, and rabbits are more at risk of being stolen for bait than larger animals.
"National Geographic" noted that there are no statistics on how many pets are taken and used as bait by dog fighting rings each year. Patricia Wagner, head of the National Illegal Animal Fighting Task Force for the Humane Society of the United States, offered the statement "I think every state has a problem with it, whether they know it or not."
