Friends pitbull.

Omg, that is not good if he wants to go after kids. A pit bull should NEVER show any human aggression. She really needs to contact a trainer and get him fixed.

He wants to go after the kids?? This is REALLY unacceptable, a human agressive dog of ANY breed is dangerous...Please, please, try and talk to her before he becomes another headline, and someone ends up getting hurt.

I think thats why she has him in the house so much, IF he see's a little kid outside running and playing he wants to chase it and get it. If a little kid is in her house he jumps on them and doesnt let them move or get up at all then humps them also. He already attacked something from what I know I never actually asked though. I wish she would just get him trained he is 6 yrs old so I dont think fixing him would do too much by now at his age but I dont know.

You are right- it won't do much..he's been allowed to run the house for 6 years, its not going to be an overnight fix...she needs to get professional help.

Get him fixed WILL make a difference - she should do that immediately. Then she can work on training him, but right now, hormones are helping drive his behavior. It won;t make him overnight into an angel, but it WILL curb some of his behavior issues - like when he hurt you by trying to mate with your leg.

Neutered or not, I think he sounds very aggressive. neutering would be first step for sure. Talk to her and tell her you are afraid of him. Personally I probably would never want to be around the dog, doesn't sound too safe to me. Your friend hasn't socialized him and has let him rule the house too long.
