They were flat out bred to FIGHT OTHER DOGS. You can like or dislike it, but that is the fact.
To each his/ her own. That is what the dog was "designed" for, nothing else. Yes, it is possible to attempt to "train" nature out of an animal. For cripes sake, you have lions, tigers and bears standing on stools in a circus. WHATEVER!
I despise dogfighting. That is MY RIGHT so you know what if that bothers you! While I think it is retarded to have a pet that is strictly bred to fight other dogs, as a pet, that is your choice, and your right.
I cringe every week when your hear and see the gorry results of Pitbulls and children. I PRAY that adult (well not really!) parents are caged like the ANIMALS that they are when these ADORABLE LOVELY PEACFUL GENTLE creatures maul their garbage piece of poop children. Better yet, ENTERTAINMENT: Lock them in a cage with these lovable creatures that mauled their piece of poop human child. Kill two birds with one stone. Rid the world of oxygen wasting bi-peddle locamotives and feed these wonderful loving gentle creatures at the same time.
No on second thought bad idea. These creeps are probably experienced enough with the breed to understand how their jaws work. Outrageous crushing power on the downbite, and a child could hold thei closed mouths shut with two fingers. Not very effective against and adult Human being who "understands" the animal!
