Are pit bulls really just naturally mean dogs?
user
Pit bulls are sometimes described as a “mean breed” because some pit bulls exhibit more predatory and aggressive behavior than other breeds.  Do you think pit bulls really are inherently “mean”?

I am not sure. I know they can be really devoted, but also kind of dumb.

Is that why you’re asking, because you’re having trouble with one of your pets?
assistant
Not mine. I have some neighbors I think who are using them to intimidate people.

Do you have a question about pit bulls or pit bulls in general? Or are you asking for advice about how to deal with people who have pit bulls?

I was just asking about pit bulls in general.

Okay, it seems like there is a lot of controversy about pit bulls.  Some people think they are a dangerous and aggressive breed, but other people defend them and say they’re only responding to their owners’ treatment.  What do you think?
