There was some VERY true and valid points stated. In our area we have alot of Pitt's....90% of them are the sweetest, loving, high energy kind :D maybe even 95% the other 4% will warm up to you in minutes, 1% not interested in what you have to offer. Yesterday I visited my sister in-law. She has Pitt's as well breed's them. Walking past her 6' fence past her backyard three of her female pitt's were finding holes in the fence to try to kiss me....I do not see these dogs regularly probley every few months but they are a joy to be around and I normally get a few laughs at the dogs expense as well. I would bet my sister in law would not get the same response as I did walking her fence if she did mine. My dogs guard my yard and take it very seriously. In my opinion that is what I like, no one bothers me or mine, no door to door here :D
