    I never got to know a Pit-bull ... the only time I knew one was when it tryed to chase me when I was little on my bike lucky enough it was on a leash, I road my bike home as fast as my little legs could take me lol.

    I have nothing against them, Im just kinda freaked out by them and would never want to go near one lol but I don't hate them because I have read some stories and seen how cute some where.

    For me the only animal I ever educated people on is pigeons ... none of my friends hate them.

    I dunno about Pit bulls I never talk about them.

    A few people I guess. My parents don't need convincing, my mom set up the adoption of our first dog, a dane/ pit mix.

    I've never met a pit bull, so whenever I try to tell someone they aren't vicious, they give me the "You've never even met one !" rant.

    I'll add "Meet a friendly Pittie" to my summer to do list.

    I have changed a few minds about them.I take Bobber to training class and she is there for any type of dog even our kennel club put on.
    Being she is a Tri people don't really know what she is so they just start petting her.When they ask what she is,they always look suprised.Arn't these mean dogs?I say sure she will lick your face right off if you let her.

    No one I know has a bad opinion of pitbulls to start with, so no mind-changing has yet been needed!

    Semi-yes.
    Both parents of mine are kinda against pitties.. as both lived in a large city where there reports of dog attacks kinda often.
    I've been wearing off on them, though... as their veiw is beginning to change.
    Like recently, when I took one of my rats to the vets, I met this awesome Pit(named Duke) and he was the sweetest thing. I told my mum about it, and she didn't respond how she used to. =D


    Really, though, I don't talk to people about dogs.... I'm more of a bird/rat person.
