All Pitbulls are potentially dangerous dogs. Having stressed that, Pitbulls are not friendly to any other dogs though there may be exceptions, but you'll never know when they'll turn on the other dog. Pitbulls seldom waste time before attacking, there is no customary quarrel. It's straight at the neck shoulder joint and backpedals until the other dog collapses only to release to get a better bite or when the other dog is dead. Pitbulls are almost useless as guard dogs. Most of the time they'll choose to go for another dog than a person and most crooks worthy of their profession know that ! Besides, pitbulls hardly ever bark ! Pitbulls need a lot of space and they can jump 5 ft. easily and climb fences . How do I know.........I've kept 5 Boxers and R.Ridgeback. All systematically demolished by the singular Pitbull from 1 year old to 6 yrs old. The pitbull was fenced in 6ft. Chainlink and grew up as a pup with the others. Always friendly to the others and it happens so suddenly, without a sound except for the whinning of the other dog. This dog had also cleared my perimeter fence of 6ft chainlink and killed several large spitz, 2 Rottweilers and a GSD. All cost me a bomb to replace ! I have seen Pitbull breeders and their dogs in fights, believe me, if you remotely like dogs you'll be turned off ! This pitbull I kept, I bought because it was the last of the litter and looked so cute, all black with a white chest and an almost square head ! Cobra. ( oh yes, he has white on his feet ! ) Remained a faithfull dog till the last day, never snarled at the kids and behaved better than a Retriever when the kids climbed all over him, yet I get goosebumps when I recall the muffled snarling when he has connected fangs to another dog. I thought I could train him to be obedient, well, he did quite well when I shouted for him to stop but sometimes he pretended not to hear or I caught him a few seconds too late. For nearly 10 years I lived with the fear of another incident, only in the last year(of his life) did I feel comfortable that Cobra was no longer capable ! So, think carefully. Tuckfook
