That too. here is a story to give you a laugh:

My family and I were at my grandparents' house. Across the street was the HUGE Doberman barking his head off at us (he was in a fence, thank God, but considering the fence was only about four feet high....). My older brother (he was probably 18 at the time) looks at the dog, then looks at me and asks, "Is that a Pit Bull?" I just start busting up laughing and he can't figure out what is so funny. I tell him no, it is a Doberman, and he gets this sheapish look on his face and says, "Oh, ya, I knew that. I just couldn't remember what they were called."

Just goes to show you how the common public identifies breeds.
