We actually (thank goodness for the internet/and talking to other pit owners) know this breed...Yes the American Pitbull terrier has historically been bred to excel in combat with other dogs...But we still would not want anyone to ever wish death on our dog...Who is more gentle than Sammi or Kasey put together...

Everyone is entitled to their own opinions regarding this breed...But just as a pitbull can kill so can any other breed...Sammi has snapped at people in the street and she is what I consider an ankle biter...Doesnt mean she cannot kill if she has to (wheter it be a a small child or another dog...)

From a website:

At one time Pitbull was used as a national symbol of courage and pride, and IMO I feel the breed is largely misunderstood today...Their history dates back to the late 18th early 19th century...Like any other breed of dog, the key areas of focus for ensuring a happy, well adjusted American Pit Bull Terrier as a pet are: owner education, proper breeding, socialization, and training...

I will not say anymore about Storm and how wonderful my family thinks he is...I just get upset to think people would say THE WHOLE BREED needs to be killed or taken down...Because ANY BREED can be taught to kill/fight...and this is why I had to post....I dont want to start an argument/heated discussion with anyone! Because u all are awesome people

Lots of Love
Fran
