[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We adopted a shelter puppy and were told it was a lab mix. We did wisdom panel which suggested 50% american staffordshire terrier (which I think is a type of pit). It's completely not agressive, wonderful with children, and I could take food out of its mouth. We've had it for nearly two year without any incident.

But I am also in the camp of no pit is safe. We're unlikely to get rid of the dog, but I can't help being a bit worried. What would you do?[/quote]

We also have a Pitt mix who is totally not aggressive with food or people. He gets scared of some people so like any dog you need to read his mood and put him someplace safe if he is stressed. [/quote]

And that is the problem with pitbulls, they are "fine" until they are not. However, when they finally display problem behaviors, it isn't a snap to the face that requires a few stitches (which is bad enough anyway). https://www.wral.com/garner-police-chief-denies-dangerous-dog-permit-for-pair-that-killed-child-injured-mother/19693375/     In the video with this news article, there are pictures of the little girl playing with her neighbor's pitbulls. Later on, they mauled her to death, they "loved" her until she triggered an aggressive response by falling down at the wrong time. That sweet, innocent kid didn't deserve that, and the owners of the dogs still are fighting to get them back and keep them as pets. These dogs, and all of these bully type breeds, are dangerous and have no place in society. Even though the owners have an adult only household, those animals still managed to kill a little girl.
