no doubt there are instances with each breed of dog. that's absolutely true. but in most cases, those are isolated instances, not involving a dog that had been specifically bred for centuries to be a killer that won't give up once the fight starts. since bear and bull baiting, down to the modern day dog fights, pits have been bred for one thing only. much like retrievers, who are called just that because it's what they're bred to do. or dalmatians, who generally don't make good pets because they are a tremendous bundle of energy--bred for centuries to run for hours along-side carriages. or terriers, anyone have one and then complain about holes in the rose beds?? how about your friendly border collie--not recommended for apt living, or for families with younger children--parents don't generally appreciate fido nipping at the kiddies heels.
it is accurate to say that pit bulls have been bred for centures to be killers--different working dogs were bred for the characteristics that farmers, ranchers or herders desired. sadly, pit bulls have been bred to perform blood sport for those that enjoy that sort of thing. not to be pets, not warm and cuddly, not companion animals. sheepdogs are bred to herd sheep, they will exhibit those herding instincts. doesn't mean rover will come home one day with his own flock, but you'll see his instincts kick in given the right circumstances. but unlike so many other dogs, pits don't listen to 'no'. as for them not getting along with other dogs--that is so against what most expect in a dog, which is for the most part a pack animal. and a dog who doesn't like other dogs, won't do well in any type of pack situation, since most houses with dogs are a 'pack'. but why chance it with a ticking time bomb pit? those who understand what they are getting, have the right setting (hopefully not near a neighbor with a pet door--a lady home minding her own business the other day, pit came in and attacked and killed her-very recently), the wherewithal to deal with that dog, fine, go for it. btw, they should contact their homeowners insurance, as many won't cover owners of 'vicious' dogs. maybe they can get a million dollar rider to cover any accidents. but i would recommend that most who want a dog, to do their research and get the right dog for their situation-- (not the dog that will stroke their ego, scare the neighbors, or tear up their house while their gone. it's what's best for them as well as their dog. and 99 times out of 100, a pit bull is NOT a good fit.) --and that way, those of us who live in the dog dumping grounds won't have so many strays to deal with. i've taken in plenty over the years, as have the neighbors.

Ah did! Do you think it was timely for the series shift to NYC? Or did he really mean it? I think both.
