I have mixed feelings about them. I've known some really sweet Pits. On the other hand there are plenty of stories of vicious attacks on people. On the third hand dog attacks of humans is not limited to Pits. A young girl was severely injured in a dog attack locally. The dog pretty much ripped her face off. The dog was a Lab! They are supposed to be sweet, gentle dogs.

The same thing has happened to Pits that happened to other breeds. Idiots bred them indiscriminately (sp?) focusing on creating badA dogs. Blame the bangers who picked them as the dog of choice. They did the same thing with Rotties. I don't know that outlawing the breed will solve the problem It seems the idiots will just find another breed to breed to be badA.

It's interesting that Pits have the reputation they do. Statistically German Shepherds are responsible for more dog bites than Pits.
