I just wanted to step in this for a second.. Even though I'm not a breeder, if I was, I wouldn't let having a pitbull stop me from allowing someone to have one of my babies. No, they don't just wake up one day and decide to tear someone apart.. There are a lot of underlying problems and warning signs (abuse and what not) that regular owners don't pay attention to (which is why most attacks happen).. I just had to put my boy to sleep the beginning of the month and he was a 110lb american bulldog/pitbull mix. The breeders who I've gotten my last three yorkies from didn't let that stop them. He *LOVED* my yorkie to the point of almost mothering her. My boyfriend (who I basically live with) has a pitbull who sleeps with my yorkies. Extra caution has to be taken in regards to size and what not, but I would not judge one person (or one breed for that matter) just because of some negative stereotyping... Off my soap box.. |
