Pit Bulls Were Never "Nanny Dogs". Never. It's A Myth

33. No.

Some dogs have aggression, it is how they are bred, and not necessarily a bad thing. Malinois are true man-stoppers. They are bred for serious dog people by serious dog people who do dog sports. You do not see them in people's backyard as a general rule.

The idea that you can change a pits internal temperament is foolish. You cannot "rehabilitate" their genetics.

To be quite honest, there are three groups of people who are screwing up the breed and

1) the group who thinks every dog is really just a gold retriever inside and enough love and goo goo eyes will make it so.

2) the thugs who want tough aggressive dogs without breeding for the mental stability to switch it on and off when needed; i.le. those who breed for looks and attitude and ignore all the other aspects that comes with breeding responsible dogs

3) The owners who think they have what it takes to own a dog with high fight drive and physical abilities to do real harm when in fact, they should own NOTHING more than a golden retriever
