Ignorance and misseducation... You, and any other person who doesn't like or trust a whole breed of dog can not possible know the whole truth.Originally Posted by Argranade
Here's something everyone in the world needs to know; American Pit Bull Terriers are very emmotionally sensitive, but physically tough. this combines for a GREAT dog for someone who knows what they are doing, but is also quick to lead to disaster for anyone else, especially those "macho" guys who think they must be tougher than the dog. They can easily ruin a dog and it takes a lot to fix them. That is why it is not fair to punnish the responsible people who know what they are doing by banning or killing every dog. Look at history. The APBTs, Am Staffs, and Staffie Bulls were bred together by crossing an old style bull dog and a terrier to get a "Bull and Terrier". When pit fighting was outlawed, most peoplestarted breeding them as a family and ladies dogs. This was in the 1800s and early 1900s. For centuries, bulldogs and terriers were both bred very strongly AGAINST HUMAN AGGRESSION. Any dog who showed the slightest bit of aggression towards a human was killed, therefor eleminating them from the gene pool.
It is easy to see how a dog might lash out out of fear if it was kept on a chain, in a basement, or abused. It is programed to seak attention from the human, and be guided by them, but you stabed them in the back, you killed them emotionally already.
