This will annoy some folks but, for the record, I am basically anti-pit bull and I generally don’t think their transgressions should count against dogs any more than lynx or cougars should count against cats. I know this doesn’t hold up under the strictest scrutiny on several fronts, but while I think most breeds of dogs have to be “taught” to be bad, I think the reverse is largely true for pit bulls. They can be sweet, but it takes a lot of work to make and keep them that way.
