Pit Bulls aren’t good family dogs due to the power of their strength and that they could attack at any moment.

The media’s attack on pit bulls started when drug dealers were chaining them up using them as a weapon against police. In the media Pit Bulls and portrayed as vicious dogs that attack owners, strangers, and children without warning. There are several other breeds that bite and attack, however you only hear about the pit bulls. For example if on day one a Lab mix bites a child you will see it in the newspaper the following day; day two when a Great Dane bites two adults you will see it on the news the next day; day three a Rottweiler attacks an elderly woman in her backyard and it is aired on all network stations; day four a Pit Bull Terrier bites a mailman and you will hear and see it on every station in the country. This is a good example
When you hear Pit Bulls; what is the first thing that comes into your mind? Maybe, mean or just flat out dangerous dogs. Many people have Pit Bulls and say they are great dogs and that they are great family pets. Many still think they are not safe to have as pets and some states are even trying to ban the ownership of Pit Bulls. I believe that Pits are good family dogs and that people have the wrong idea about these dogs.
Should people be allowed to keep Pit Bulls as a pet? I hear this being debated all the time. I hear on the news how states have banned this dog. Its sad, the dog has done nothing wrong. I think its the owners fault, the dogs were raised to fight. The dogs don't know any different, they had to fight to survive.
Pit bulls are adorable dogs who do not mean any harm. Some cities and dog shelters have banned pit bulls, for being to aggressive. Pit bulls are aggressive or defend themselves when they feel threatened. The way a pit bull acts is based on how its owner treats them, or trains them to behave. If a pit bull is raised in a bad environment, and encouraged with bad behavior, pit bulls might not like to be around other people, and could feel threatened. Some owners even train their dogs (mostly pit bulls but could be different breads too) to fight against other dogs. If a dog has been raised like this, people can not expect a dog to have good behavior around others. If pit bulls are treated nicely and put into a healthy environment, they can be one

As you listen to this story, which breed of dog did you picture brutally mauling the infant? Many people would instantly imagine a pitbull committing such a malicious act- complete with snarling, snapping jaws, and a pure intention to kill.

Their names are Zeus and Hera and they are some of the kindest, goofiest dogs I have lived with. My dogs love to play and cuddle more than anything. They don’t bark at people walking past the house, or at other pets and animals when they go on their daily walks. To me it is absolutely ridiculous that these sweet dogs are hated so widely across the country because PEOPLE gave them a bad reputation. The Breed of American Pit Bull Terriers is considered a “fight dog” breed today because criminals use them for illegal affairs such as protecting drugs and dog fighting. Pit bulls are extremely tough dogs, but it is not in their nature to fight. Fight dogs are beaten, abused, starved, and left in cages until they are sent to fight another dog. They are trained to act out this behavior that is not seen elsewhere. Humans train dogs to be viscous.
