Just to reassure you, a staff is a breed of pitbull. If you look up the definition, you'll understand better.

Also, you can't have PITBULL FAN PAGES that INCLUDE your specific breed and then in this video thread, claim it's not the same thing.

Here's one of the things I read from a pitbull fighting book:

Adams’ Gr. Ch. Zebo ROM – attacked Mr. Adams’ son and nearly took his son’s ear off. After the request of Mr. Adams’ wife, Zebo was sold again, this time to Mr. Johnson who fought him twice more.

So you tell me what they are bred for and look up what ROM is, if you are not familiar. My puppies father is ROM.

OMG! This "report" is pure horse shit!

Huh, that is a good question. So the thor breeds are obviously extroverted but aren't the introverted loki breeds every bit as destructive? If napoleon was a dog, what groups would help show em, the introverted groups or the extroverted groups?

I lived next door to THREE of those fukers and nobody thinks it's a "privilege". Seen a pitbull attack a normal dog at my dog club. Only attack I've ever seen there.

At my club, in one BASIC OBEDIENCE class, 3 of 4 pitbulls were asked to leave for aggression issues. While I didn't see the incident which got them booted, I sure did hear about it.

It's genetics. You breed a dog for a century to kill other dogs, don't be surprised when it starts killing.

Hope that makes things clear to you.

Working dog breeds are absolutely bred for a specific purpose. The Border Collie is bred to HERD and the pitbull is bred to KILL.

Read up on genetics. If what you say, "A dogs purpose is what it's owner makes it." is true, then we could do the same with Lions, Alligators, and Sharks.

I think it's funny how you think you are spewing facts. Who the hell are you to say that their main purpose in life is to maul and kill other animals? A dogs purpose is what it's owner makes it. People make the decision to train pitbulls to fight. If that's all they know then of course they are going to attack other animals.

It's clear to me that you have never had the priviledge to get to know one of these dogs. Try it some time, it may change your very closed mind.

By the beagle thing and basically grabbed the collar of the dog and brought it back home to its owners with the kid and with Hershey so she could see what her " sweet" dog did to us, not one mark was on this beagle thing and poor Hershey needed several stitches on his hind legs and chest and the kid needed 6 on his leg and I only got a few punctures on my hand, but goes to show you not all pitbulls or pit type dogs are aggressive, Hershey protected his owner

I live in a culdisac and right down the street is a pitbull named Hershey he's so sweet and loving and the other day his owners kid was walking him and a beagle mix got out and charged him and the kid barking and trying to bite the kid Hershey made a barrier between the beagle mix and the kid and got more injuries than the kid did but Hershey didn't attack back he just snapped a few times when the beagle thing was biting him, I love pitbulls and I ran over to help the kid and Hershey and got bit
