Persuasive Essay On Pitbulls

Who’s a Good Boy?

“They are vicious animals,” says the lady who stands ten feet away from any pit bulls she sees. Some people have a negative attitude towards pit bulls as pets; for that they see them as dangerous and aggressive animals. They give pit bulls such a bad name because of the media and terrible stories about them such as using them in ring fights. Most of the individuals who says that pit bulls are vicious are usually the ones who have not owned one and never met one, and they are basing their opinions on what they see on the media. Despite all these bad generalizations about the breed, pit bulls make great family pet, for they are loyal, loving, and very playful.

To start with, pit bulls make a great pet since they are very loyal to their owners. Pit bulls like to please their owners since they like to hear the praises and making them happy. For instance, my pit bull is very obedient, he follows the commands given to him just to you can

tell him that he is a good boy. Having a pit bull means having a best friend for life since they will be there through anything. In addition, pit bulls are not much of a guard dog since they are way too friendly. However, pit bulls will protect their owner when they feel like they are being threatened. For instance, when another dog barks at their owner, they will most likely bark at them back. In addition, I once read about a pit bull who saved his owner’s life by barking and whining at one of the neighbor’s door. Pit bulls would go to the extreme in saving their owners from distress. Likewise, pit bulls will never leave their owner’s side unless they are asked to do so. They are just very affectionate.
Moreover, pit bulls are loving and caring animals. They can sense whether their owners are feeling down or having a bad day; and pit bulls try their best to lighten up the atmosphere. According to Vince, a pit bull owner, said that pit bulls are empathetic. To illustrate, Vince says that whenever he gets frustrated and yell, his pit bull, Piccolo, would come over with an apologetic face. Then, Piccolo tries to cheer and comfort Vince even with all he can do is support. Also, pit bulls love cuddles and getting pet. They will cuddle with their owners almost anywhere, keeping them warm whether it is on the couch, on the bed, or even on the lap. Pit bulls will not let owners feel alone, so they run to their owners with their tails wagging and ears perk up letting them know that they are not on their own. In addition, pit bulls are always happy around people. For instance, my pit bull greets me with so much excitement after being gone for hours maybe even minutes. As soon as walks in the room, my dog automatically runs towards me with his tail wagging and starts kissing me to show affection.
Lastly, pit bulls are one of the most playful dog breeds.

Pit bulls like to play with their toys and their owners. For example, a pit bull would casually grab one of his chew toys and find a perfect spot near the couch or under the tree, and just start chewing and playing with it. Sometimes, it would even approach its owner with it, so it can play fetch or tug of war. Pit bulls also likes the outdoors. For instance, at the dog park, my pit bull either lays in the sun, runs around chasing birds or other dogs, and of course his favorite rolling in the dirt or mud. Likewise, pit bulls are athletic dogs. They like to exercise whether it is walking or running around the neighborhood. On this note, it is also beneficial for the owners since it motivates them to get out and get their daily exercise. Additionally, pit bulls love meeting new people and other dogs, for they like to socialize with everyone. Whether it is at a park or the house, pit bulls will always ask a person or even another dog to play with

them.
In contrast to the generalized belief about pit bulls being an aggressive breed, pit bulls make an exceptional family pet and even as a best friend. Pit bulls can make an individual feel safe and happy, so they should not be given such an awful reputation. Pit bulls live joyfully, gratefully, and love unconditionally. One should really get to know what it is like to have a pit bull before he or she make a conclusion about such a wonderful dog breed.
