I have probably had thirty plus dogs over the past twenty five years, currently down to six of mine and boarding three of my daughters. My vet buys a new pickup every year with my contributions.

We live near Fort Hood, Texas and when there was/is a major deployment we always had/have an increase in our dog population since the soldiers probably felt/feel the dogs had a better chance of finding a home than surviving at a local animal ‘shelter’.

We have had many different breeds over the years and only had to get rid of three due to bad behavior toward people or other dogs.

This ‘Dog Hater’ DOES NOT ACCCEPT PIT BULLS AS RESIDENTS for the safety of my grandkids and other dogs. You do not know when they will snap.

BTW, if you are worrying about the many dogs at one time, we live on 250 acres of wooded land and have a five acre ‘house’ yard. The dogs do not need to be chained or fenced. They are trained to not follow the cars past our front gate. They also have very cozy spots in my 1200 square foot shop to protect them from the weather. They would find it most difficult to adapt to city life.

Why would you not think a bully breed couldn't be trained well? I would not recommend that they run loose (the hatred for them is obvious) but they certainly can be and are trained by responsible owner.
