Poor pitties. With the right training, we know pit bulls can be very sweet dogs. My cousin has a pit bull named Xena, and she's great. It's not her fault she was born with strong jaws! Obviously, families with small children should strongly consider not owning certain pets, but then again my best friend had half her face taken off by an Old English Sheepdog when she was ten. You can't judge behvior based on breed only. She'e fine now, BTW - plastic surgeons can work miracles!
