true, but the way it came across the first time was more like

"no matter the training they eat babies for breakfast"


but like u said and i was pointing out, ANY dog has the capabilities of attacking at any time. just as any animal does cept maybe a goldfish...

u do hear more horror stories about pits, and i'm sure most of that is due to the training/or lack there of. most people want a pit just to make themselves look tougher so they make the dogs mean... therefore the dog knows nothing but to be mean. and it thinks it's ok.


mine is just a pup, but i'm doing everything i can to make him learn that other dogs/people/animals are ok. when he barks at noises, other dogs he hears he gets scolded... i want him to learn that he's not allowed to be aggresive toward another animal. i know it's him being territorial and protective but pits have that rep, and i don't want it to happen with mine.
