Location: here there and everywhere! | I have my first Pit now whom I got from a rescue about 8 months ago. Shes about 3 years old and looves to attack people with kisses all the time. Sweetest thing you ever did meet, they had found her badly beaten tied to a vets door. The fact that she is still as sweet as can be is a testament to the resilience of their breed. My 4 year old nephew comes over on weekends and she is so gentle with him. I also have 8 cats that do stay inside the house. It took about 4 months for her to truly adjust. If your having issues just be patient with her. Jessi did good when she first came but then regressed for some reason (ie accidents in the house) Crating definitely helped her a lot

Thanks!
Also with all my rescues I consistently see an adjustment period of at LEAST 30 days before they truly settle down!
So happy you got her! |

Location: Eastern OH but my heart is in WV | I love that others are sharing their Pitt pictures on here too!!! Beautiful dogs!!!!
Yuki is so smart! Again amazed at how quickly she is learning. She wants to be a lap dog and we can't convince her she is to big. Did realize just a little while ago, she is very timed outside. Went for a walk around the block and she was curious but as soon as something startled her, she ran behind me. Once I showed her it was OK, so was good with it too. Think we are going to be a fan of the breed too :) |

| ***Pet Pit Bull Rips Arm from Daughter of Delaware Councilman***
The 8-year-old daughter of a Newark, Delaware city councilman had multiple surgeries, including one to reattach her right arm, following an attack by the family's pet pit bull Saturday afternoon.
She spent several days fighting to recover from multiple dog bites that critically injured her.
The 8-year-old girl was at her Adelene Drive home with her 15-year-old sister around 1 p.m. Saturday when the family's pet pit bull viciously attacked, police said.
"The doctor told us this was the worse dog [attack] she has ever seen and this is her specialty," McGuinness Ruckle wrote in a Facebook post Sunday.
The aggressive dog initially prevented the siblings from leaving the room where the attack occurred, but the teenager was able eventually to carry her hurt sister past the pit bull, authorities said.
The dog's behavior continued to prevent medics from treating Emily at the scene, which led Newark police to shoot and kill the pet, according to officials.
The critically injured child was airlifted Saturday to the Children's Hospital of Philadelphia, where she is still recovering Tuesday.
When reached by phone, the councilman declined to comment on his daughter's condition.
"I'm just focusing on my daughter right now," he said.

That wasn't necessary.. Everybody here knows the reputation. There's not a person on this thread that has not done the research to find out what breed leads the pack in human attacks. So.... is it your mom or your dad that gave you the PB DNA?

I am sure I can google just as many other stories about other breed of dogs that have attacked also.
Prior to me getting Yuki, I had a wonderful Australian Shepard mix (mostly AS). He was the best family dog, a person could ask for. Never a mean bone in his body towards his family but unfortunately he was to protective. It got to the point where friends could not even come into our home anymore without us having to lock him up. He bit our neighbor after getting breaking his chain and we were not home. For years, this was never a concern and these were all people we knew well. It broke my heart and I will never understand why he became that way. I am sure of one thing though there was no Pit Bull blood in him at all, so take your trouble making somewhere else. |

Location: Louisiana | I have had many Pitbulls and Putbull mixes over the years...i am prone to picking up ANY dog i see that needs a home or help and finding them a home. I currently have (guessing around 3yr old) Pitbull mix that is a rescue im trying to re home, we also have a 1.5 year old Pitbull/(Aussi/Heeler) ...lol and I have a 9 year old registered pitbull. My 9 year old male lives inside he is not fixed we have had him since he was 5 weeks old. He is a BIG SWEET BEAR ! Hes 90 pounds and thinks he is 10 pounds well "try" to curl up in your lap....he is 9 years old but STILL has that hyper puppy mentality he is VERY well behaved and smart but LOVES to play and LOVES when we have guest over. We currently have 15 horses, alpacas, mini horses, mini donkeys, mini pigs (6 of them are babies who stay inside with him being litter box trained to sell) and we also have cats....."Munster" (our pitbulls name) has never had a problem with any of them. I think the only issue we ever had when he was youngerwas any animal that would run he would chase (not aggresivley but just run with it and of course the animals where scared....lol) he also goes nuts over a 4 wheeler or dirt bikes (thats his cocaine....lol) he is fixed on wheels....but again he is very well behaved so he will leave it alone if told to.
Here is my sweet boy
