Actually, I think the idiots gravitate toward pitbulls because of their reputation. Thus perpetuating the cycle. I do agree that pitbulls are much more capable of damage than most breeds, so I understand your position. I actually like them, but would think twice about having one.

I'm telling you (and this might sound crass and un-Christlike to some), but I would make it abundantly clear to anyone who has a pit bull around me that in the event that that dog attacks my son, shooting the dog is a given...I would most likely shoot the owner as well. I think it is a travesty that people are allowed to bring that potential for fatal attacks into countless neighborhoods and not be held accountable to the degree they should.

Thanks, and he was a precious dog. He has passed away, but I kept the picture. Such a sweet and loving dog. The Vet put him down and they brought him home to bury him in the backyard. Her husband sat by the grave for a couple of hours just crying. Poor thing!

They have another pit named "Stella". She is grey and so much fun to play with. She knows when I come over that I will toss the ball around with her in the backyard. And, Yes, they named her because of Streetcar Named Desire. Never having seen the movie, they thought it was funny for Brando to yell, "Stella"!!!

When they were on vacation they wanted me to run by the Vet to check and see how she was doing. I said, "When I walk in, I'm going to say - I've come to check on STELLAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!"

That would honestly scare me, Renda. From all the studying my daughter has done on the Pit Bull, the mixed breeds are the ones that can show up with trouble at some point. You just don't ever know is what we have understood.

I saw an interview with Linda Blair who also confirmed that the mixed breed is the most dangerous.

My daughter has papers on both dogs. They want the pure bred.

She keeps the dog in it's pen when company comes over. No one likes a dog licking your hands while you are visiting. LOL!

We wouldn't let your cute little boy get hurt - after all you've been through with the birth! We are nice people, Stew!!! Really!!!! LOL!

I would have thought that you were plenty pitbull enough for your family.
