These dogs were bred by crossing bulldog breeds and terriers. Pit bulls are very strong and can pull many times their weight. They were also bred for dog fighting. The place where such dogs fought was called a "pit". As such dogs can be dangerous, very often a special permit is needed to breed or to own them. Some places or countries may have forbidden their use.
