Myths about Pit Bulls

The American Pit Bull Terrier is probably the most talked about dog breed. You here wide and varied stories about the dogs that only do what they've been trained to do. IE train the dog to fight, the dog will fight; train the dog to love, the dog will love. But, then again not all dogs breed and trained to fight will actually fight; those who won't fight are usually thrown on the side of the road after being brutally beaten and left near death.

The myths that surround the American Pit Bull Terrier, are those that really surround all bully breed dogs, but because the American Pit Bull Terrier includes "pit bull" in its name, they tend to get the most heat.

Severe Dog Attacks



There are dozens of dog bites a year, and a trickle or to of fatal attacks. But, the media leads you to believe that there are more fatal attacks than there truly are. Plus, they lead you to believe that pit bulls are the only dog breed that attack. I haven't heard of a Great Dane or German Shepherd fatal attack in the media in a while, but that doesn't mean that it doesn't happen.

Plus, even looking at the statistics, you can't assume that just because it says "Pit Bull", "Pit Bull Mix", or whatever that it truly was that dog because the characteristics that lead people to believe a dog is a pit bull type dog are similar characteristics of other big dog breeds. So, it's just not fair.

Yes, these dogs attack. I'm not denying that fact, but they just don't attack as frequently or as often as the media lets you to believe.
