pitts and rotties are the only types of dogs I have ever had. since I was 1 I have always had a dog. I could care less what the trend is and my dogs have never been apart of a organized fight only a couple neighborhood scuffels when they get loose or a neighbors dog gets loose. and they never will. popular or not i will always have a pitt or rottie or both by my side untill the day i am called home!!!!
