How are they doing with the move?

Over half of fatal dog attacks in the US are from pit bulls, that's all...

Most of the dogs people say are “pit bulls” are actually mixes or poorly bred ones, just saying. I actually read about one case in Canada of a PUREBRED BLACK LABRADOR being misidentified as a Pit Bull BY THE AUTHORITIES. Luckily they had registration paperwork proving it was purebred Lab. But yeah, I don’t really trust most people’s identification abilities. Not saying pit bulls CAN’T be aggressive or fatal but I just think the statistics are really skewed. That would be like saying half the attacks were carried out by “retrievers” or “shepherds.” Well, there’s many different breeds. Mastiffs even get lumped as pits a lot. Most people call anything with a big blocky head a pit.

Poor breeding plays a big role in how a dog turns out. If you take two nervous wrecks the puppies will likely be nervous wrecks

Pretty well. Denver could care less.
Besides she has a allergy to something.

Tucker is doing ok to. Except he did mark a spot in the house earlier. Someone gave him to much freedom instead of listening to me.

But were they actually american pit bull terriers or bully mixes?
Pitties is just a term not a breed

Exactly. People call anything with a big blocky head a pit. Even Labs sometimes.

And it is how they were raised

I mean some of them are genetically aggressive especially DA and SSA but how they’re raised definitely plays a huge part too.

Yes, very true.

Yes for sure. I heard about that lab to.
There was a dog attack somewhere else and the dog was labeled pittie even though i think it was a cane corso.
