1. I wish non-bully breed type owners understand that pitbull is not a breed. It’s an umbrella term for a wide range of dogs that just fit the category of short hair, floppy ears, and wrinkly forehead. I also wish that they knew the discrimination And abuse they are subjected to which is why it’s important to be responsible owners and advocate for them.
2. They aren’t vicious angry dogs. Our 12 pound half Pomeranian/rat terrier controls both of our pits. One is 100 pounds and the other is 50 pounds. They’re the most loyal and loving pups. We have 2 in our house with our 5 month old English Bulldog pup and our kids. We are actually thinking about fostering a third pit.
3. Pitbulls are not inherently dangerous dogs. While a strong breed they are incredible loyal and sweet if raised correctly.
4. Something I’d like non pit owners to know is don’t believe all the media hype, spend some time with a pitty get to know how loving and gentle they really are with the right owner’s.
5. Non pit owners should understand that yes puts can he aggressive but it goes from dog to dog, its personality, how much exposure they have to other dogs and strangers as a pup, how they’re treated, how they’re raised. any dog can he bad and any dog can be good.
6. One thing I wish non Pitbull owners understood is. It’s not the breed it’s how the dogs are raised. Any breed raised in a hostile/violent environment is going to be aggressive.
7. Just because they look "mean" doesn’t meant they’re dangerous. Any dog can be dangerous/aggressive if you train it into them. Yes, they were predominantly used in dog fighting but I do believe part of that is because they are easy to train and want to make their owners happy. Being classed as an aggressive breed doesn’t make them aggressive. I have two cats and she is obsessed with them and grooms them every chance she gets.
8. I would like non-pitbull owners to understand that not all pitbulls are aggressive,it depends on the owner not the dog.
9. I wish non pit bull owners would understand that they are a dog no different than any other breed
10. Pittys are strong dogs, but super lovable. They just don’t understand their strength.
11. I would love ALL dog owners to understand that not all dogs operate the same, and some need absolute structure and guidelines to maintain a safe mind space, and to be respectful of others when taking their own dogs out in public. I can’t count the number of times people have let their dog run at mine to play, but my pitty see’s it as an aggressive charge.
12. I wish people understood how truly gentle, loving and FUNNY pitbulls can be. They really just want to give love and get love.
13. I wish that non pit bull owners would see that dogs always reflect their owners and any dog given proper love and training will be a sweetheart.
14. I wish non pitbull owners would understand that not all pitbulls are aggressive. I wish they would give them a chance at least
15. Something I would really love non-pit bull owners to understand is that they are just like any other dog. Meaning that these babies are a product of their environment so if you give them love and treat them good they can become your best most loyal friend. I’ve heard plenty of times that “they’ll turn on you” but that has never once been the case.
16. I would want non pit bull owner to understand that pit bulls are not aggressive by nature. My pit is actually quite a scaredy cat. She absolutely loves people and is extremely patient with my young daughter who was born when my pit was only 1 1/2 years old.
17. People see my dog and drag their kids away because they’re scared. But my dog is a big baby. He wants to play and cuddle. He whines if people walk by and don’t pet him. He is fiercely defensive of his yard, but his bark is the only scary thing about him.

That happened to my daughter. She raised from a puppy, her pit bull with plenty of love affection and care.He was fiercely loyal to her but a one person dog.
Recently he attacked and killed a cat he had grown up with.
She got ahold of the harness and had to physically slam his head against the wall until he released the cat. He has growled at her on more than one occasion.
In the family they bought the dog from the Father of the dog bit a child . The sister of the dog my daughter owned was aggressive.
In this case at least it was much more than how they were raised/trained.

Pit owners are the most uninformed, ignorant owners of all dog people, this is proof.
PITBULLS ARE TRASH. STOP SAYING THEY ARE NOT.
To many stories of kids, getting killed and old people.
Lady I worked with had her cat torn apart by her rescue dogs as one day they decided to kill the cat they they grew up with then attacked her. If it was not for he elderly mother being there she would have died when she passed out from the massive bites on her arms. One of my cats got out and the next door neighbors pit killed it. I had to patch the fence and reinforce the screed lani due to this shitty dog trying to kill my pets. six miles from my home a four year old kid was torn apart in the front yard of his Aunt’s home when their pit bull pack attacked him. A pit bull went through a fence and a screened porch to kill my friends dog. While he tried to save his dog the pit would not let go and kept attacking. My sisters rescue dogs kills all small animals they see and they are friendly dogs but are pit bull mix. They have gone after people as well for just being in the home, well after being introduced to the dogs.
According to Canine Journal, an organization that compiles and analyzes all of the dog bite attacks in the country, Pit bulls accounted for 284 deaths in those years. This is a staggering 65% of the overall dog related deaths, at 433 Americans killed between 2005 and 2017. https://www.askadamskutner.com/dog-bites/bite-statistics-according-to-dog-breed/
