I wouldn't fully trust any 'domesticated' dog - it would be plain stupid to do so. But this has already been discussed so there's no need to elaborate. Would i personally own a Pit Bull? No. But then i'm not a fan of bigger dogs or the bull-type so why would i? The issue i have with 'pedigree' breeding is that there's a lot of it and simply too much of it being done poorly. We're losing the more solid temperaments associated with any breed - and the results are becoming disastrous. Animals are a privilege - not a right. Besides, with the amount of homeless animals that have been terribly hard done by, i don't know why i would want to further a breeders trade when i can pick one up there. Again just another opinion i don't care to discuss further.
