I think your dogs response is a normal thing with pit bulls I have a german shepherd pit bull mix and when she wants to play she gets in the play position sticks up her hair and viscously growls. Because of this I can only let her play with other pit bull pit bull mixes that do the same or the golden lab type dogs that really don't care and still wanna play.. but most dogs and people get confused and think she is mean but she would never hurt anything she actually babysits my guinea pigs when I'm away...
also another thing I noticed about pit bulls is that they are very conscious of what there owner is feeling and if you are nervous or anxious or scared she may be growling at the other person in response to you thinking she is protection you but at the same time my dog does this and still wouldn't hurt that person.
o' and just a tip seeing you have a pit bull mix I do encourage you to get lots of bones for her to chew on.. and don't let her tear apart her stuffed toys.. play tug of war only with the rope... and catch with stuffed toys and balls...
