Pit bulls are great dogs.
I agree! It's a shame that although dog fighting was banned in the US, pit bulls are still made to fight in underground activities.
That's so sad to hear.
It really is. They were bred for fighting, but they're actually really good as catch dogs and they excel at hunting and driving livestock.
They have such a negative stigma even though they don't deserve it.
Yes, they do have such a bad stigma. They can be really great family companions, if they're trained correctly. Unfortunately most people won't give them a chance.
I know, they're so smart too.
Very smart! But it's also unfortunate that some dogs that aren't truly pit bulls are classified with the breed. Many dogs with similar characteristics are often thought to be pit bulls, when they aren't.
Oh yeah, stuff like American Bull dogs right?
Exactly! Also the American Staffordshire Terrier and the Staffordshire Bull Terrier, are pit bull type dogs too.
