My little pit is a rescue.. I got him at 3 months old.. at 3 months, he had already been purchased by drug dealers, and chained up to a trampoline.. and starved.. the dealers assumed because he was a "pit bull" if they starved him.. he would be so hungry he would kill anything/anyone that came on the property.. .. he was a baby.. and was just starving..

the neighbor saw him, kidnapped him and brought him to the rescue I got him from..


He is the sweetest dog ever! big lap dog. He loves all animals that he has met thus far.. His only issues are issues from being taken from mommy too young (mommy dog teaches pups "doggy manners" .. he def lacks those)

He is smart as can be! which can be trouble.. lol..

Yes they have a bad rap.. I do understand it.. but people are ignorant about it.. look at your ranks.. I have personally been bit by a golden retriever, Labrador, German Sheppard, and bichon frise..

I don't hold grudges against those breeds.. just those specific animals..

Can't (shouldn't) hate/judge all men just because your ex is a jerk.. ya know??

.. just my thoughts..

I am glad she is ok too. She has turned out to be one of the best dogs I have ever owned I don't understand why someone most likely dumped her off. But their loss, I wouldn't trade her for anything

Aww. I am glad you got your guy, and that he was taken out from a bad situation and placed into a loving home

i think pits may be the most patient baby sitters in the world. i know mine is awsome with kids.

I have agree with you. Our pit "Harry" who is a rescue is the best babysitter dog I have ever seen as well as the most intelligent dog I have ever had. He understands alot of words and can be told many commands.

Pits have a strong competitive nature and and were originally bred for wild boar hunting. If they are conditioned to use that energy in a negative way you could have problems but if they are conditioned/trained to use it for playing ball and other activities you will have a fun loving well adjusted dog like our boy Harry.

As stated so many times, It's the owner not the breed!

It's very irritating that most people assume pit bull=vicious baby eating attack machine. We just adopted our third and every time you tell somebody and they ask the breed they get that "look". It's sad, I wouldn't trade my dogs for anything, they are great pups, but because they are "pit bulls" people assume they are going to eat me someday. They are sweet, funny and I love muscular athletic dogs, add a nice medium size and short hair and they are perfect for us. There's definitely tons of overbreeding, for all the wrong reasons and most of these dogs going to the worst situations possible, they are todays bad breed and attract people who want a tough dog. The piss poor owners don't help, I know of 4 other pit bull owners in town and none of them seem to own a leash and every one has asked to breed to my dogs, who are unpapered fixed rescues and possibly mutts.
