I'm not really sure how I feel about pitt bulls. I saw on our news tonight that an 11 year old boy was killed by the family's pitt bull. He and his 9 year old brother were playing in the house and the dog jumped off the couch and attacked the boy...by the time the mom and grandmother got the dog off the boy he was dead. I know there could be a lot more to the story...who knows what the dog's history was, how it was treated, etc...and I know sometimes the media calls dogs that attack pitt bulls when they aren't pitt bulls at all. I do know it's not a breed I would own..I'm just not a big fan of the "bully breed" look...I prefer small long-haired dogs
