I freaking hate those dogs and I automatically assume anyone owning one is a thug or at a minumum uneducated, low- life, trash.

I have a shelter dog that we adopted. I have absolutely no idea what sort of mix she is. People who should know tell me that she has some Pit Bull in her.

This is the sweetest, gentlest dog I have ever owned. I have a really hard time believing she is part-Pit.

I own a seventy pound animal that you hate. He does not know that he is a pit bull(I haven't told him). He thinks he is the worlds most loving dog and proves it everyday. He is a true joy to be around. I'm lucky in that I spend 90% of my time with him. My grand kids have a very true and loyal companion in Rico. He absolutely adores and protects them while he "babysits" them.

Thug? No. I'm not.
Uneducated? Actually, very educated.
Low life? I'm doing quite well. Thank you.
Trash? You assume incorrectly.
There are plenty of pit bulls that are mis-owned. Mine never were and have been models for what all dogs can be...given responsible ownership.

So much for assumptions.
