to the OP, i say Yes. Pits are HUGE babies. I work for a vet and see tons of different breeds every day. You wanna know the breed most likely to bite? its the Lab. yup, that's right. I've been bitten by one and so has a co-worker. Pits are great dogs. I love them and if i could i'd definitely get one. They are big lovers, couch potatoes, and sleeping partners.
Pits aren't for everyone. alot of people are scared of them because of their bad rap. I wish people wouldn't jump to conclusions just because of what they've heard. More people have been bitten by labs and goldens then pits and rotties, but they don't make the news since they are "family dogs".
