a pit bull and a mini schnauzer take a nap

Daisy Mae, a rescued American Pit Bull Terrier can be seen here: http://www.dogster.com/dogs/354737

At 50 pounds, she is a gentle little lamb who has playdates once a week with this little 8 pound guy, Rocket. They play hard for an hour, then crash for an hour. Here I caught them spooning and they were too tired to get up, even when I came over to film them!

My suggestion regarding raising a good tempered pit bull is the same as with any other dog. Socialize, socialize, socialize. Dogs are companion animals so take them everywhere with you. Daily playdates are good too. Tired dogs don't get in trouble! Be firm, fair and consistent with any dog.

@MultiWafflePwnage and, also, like someone else said, when they were indeed introduced to dog fighting just as the breed was being fully shaped, any dog that showed ANY aggression whatsoever to a human was put down. They were bred to be incredibly people friendly, otherwise they would be considered a detriment to the breed. They're strong. They're loyal. They're not for everyone and they're incredibly high energy. Look up Sgt. Stubby, the APT was the national dog during WW1 and 2.

@MultiWafflePwnage actually, no, they weren't. That's a common misconception. They were bred to bull bait, thus the name bull in most of the bully breeds. The American Pit Bull Terrier, this is no such thing as a pit bull, fyi, was derived from the Amstaff, and as such was bred as a working class, bull and cow wrangling dog, they're very stubborn and the reason they have such strong jaws is for when they bite they won't let go until the farmer gets there.

@MultiWafflePwnage really??? are you sure about that statement??? cuz i dont think you have done any real research on the subject...

pitbulls were bred to fight other dogs... yes, how-ever any pitbull that showed any agression towards humans was put out of the breeding stock. and the dog agression thing can EASILY be changed through raising. you my friend are as ignorant as a damn can of tuna.
