Description:

I think the issue to ban states from being able to own pits is stupid. I own three and they have never hurt anyone I raised them from puppies. Two I rescued form an abusive home and they have never hurt anyone. I have two nieces and two nephews they range from ages 11 months to 9 yrs old. My dogs play with them often and they have never snapped or anything at them. Just because they are pits does not mean they are born dangerous. I believe the owner makes an animal mean and that if raised properly these dogs are wonderful house pets.

No states should not be able to tell you what type of dog I can own. I like or own pits.

Ive never owned or been around a pit long enough to be able to judge this but I believe it should be okay to own them if they are well kept and do not cause problems

i think its the way u treat your dog is how good or bad your dog will be.i was raised with this ugly knee high fat dog which was the love of mine and my families life but when a stranger pulled into our driveway she went into guard mode.people were scared of her and we never understood why.we love you Rusty girl.

I owe my life to these dogs one night while I was asleep I heard a noise I wake up and my dogs immediately go into protective mode one guards my bedroom door not letting me out, one midway down the stairs and one directly in front of the door. I call the police and they come to find a burglar in my woods beside the house he had a knife on him. My dogs greated the officers wagging there tails not intimidated by them but knew that the other person was bad. I love my dogs and love the breed they are different then other dogs and I would like you to help me make a statement that all pits are not bad. Please vote.
