*raises hand*corporate banker executive type & owner of the biggest, fastest, frisbee catching pit this side of the mississippi. thanks.

i am also one of the ferocious propenents of the breed and because i respect many of you, i will abstain from the browbeating i facilitate in other forums. over the years, i have come to realize that ignorance regarding this breed is so overwhelming that wholesale reeducation is necessary if the breed is to be saved. however, as long as human piles of shit who can barely take care of themselves continue to own and breed these dogs for 'protection' or for fighting...it will be impossible to improve the breed's situation. so i have bent to the notion that registration of this animal is the best alternative to complete damnation and elimination. if you want to own this breed of dog, you need to register with your county, city, or state. some type of approval process must be cleared before registration is granted. breeders would then not be allowed to sell pups to anyone not in possession of the proper registration paperwork. something along those lines.

anyway, the dogs are incredible. and in the hands of the responsible adult owners, as safe and predictable as any other breed of dog out there.

one thing i ask is that no one comes into this thread promulgating the same old bullshit that continues to give this dog its horrible reputation:

1) they are genetically wired to kill (bullshit)
2) their jaws lock with 200000000000 lbs of pressure (bullshit)
3) only scumbags and drug dealers own pitbulls (bullshit)
4) they are terrible family dogs and bad with kids (bullshit)


the truth:

1) they are very athletic, strong, and powerful animals which makes them very capable of inflicting great amounts damage faster and more efficiently than other breeds ... when trained to do so.

2) no amount of socialization with other dogs will make them 100% safe around any other dogs. this is pretty much the standard with any breed of dog though.

3) pit mixes are no less or more safe the purebred pits.

i could go on...but i wont.

and for those intersted in owning...please explore a responsible and accredited rescue before seeking out a breeder (this applies to any breed).
