I'm sorry to say but I don't like pit's at all. Hate me I don't care.
I live in a area where they are let loose to run and attack, are set on other people's dogs in their yards, they are mean and are faught, and they are set on any animal that moves pretty much. A few years ago a group of boys baited my next door neighbor's lab mix in to fence chasing their pits when they walked by. One day I came home to my neighbor crying and the police there. Those boys had come by and put their pits in my neighbors fenced in yard. Those pits tore my neighbors dog to shreads. It looked like someone mass murderd a few cows out there because there was so much blood.
A friend of mine has three of them that he says are "sweet, loving, never would hurt a fly". Last July at his 4th of July cook out, I was sitting there with my b/f... doing absolutely nothing. The male pit was standing next to me and out of no where turned and lunged at me. THANK GOD my friend was standing near him and grabbed him. I felt that dogs teeth glaze my arm! About a half an hour later the dog came flying up on to the porch and lunged right at my face. My boyfriend threw me off of his lap and by that time my friend and boyfriend had the dog back under control. My boyfriend then told our friend that he better put those dogs away because if that dog would have touched me he would kill it right then and there.
I've also met many countless pits on walks with my dog around the neighborhood. Two years ago I was walking Snick down an alley and a pit was loose and just came running, barking, and snarling at us. I knew that we were both in for it and that I had to do something and quick! Snick was trying to hold her ground but I yanked her in to someones back yard that had their gate unlocked. I quickly shut it and the dog was trying to jump it to get to us. I then ran out of their front gate and took a b-line back on home. That was not the first time I've been just about gotten from a pit around here walking my dog. I hardly ever walk her or Cin around here. When I do walk them around here, I walk them where I know there was few pits.
I don't trust them at all! They are so unpredictable. I have friends who have them, but I ask my friends to put them away when I'm over their houses.
I've only met one sweet pitbull. She belongs to my friend I work with, but I don't trust her and make sure my friend Chris is around me and her at all times while she is out in the house.
I've seen what these dogs can do and do, do. It's not something I like at all. I LOVE dogs but I don't like pits at all. I've just had way to many bad experiences with them.
I feel a lot more comfortable being over my friends house who has a burm and a few retics then I do over my other friends house who has the only pit that I'll call sweet.
