Considering to Own a Pit Bull

If you want a dog who is small to medium, muscular and powerful, looks imposing, but is usually non-aggressive with people, thrives on vigorous athletic activities, and has a sleek, easy-groom coat that comes in many colors, then an American Pit Bull Terrier may be right for you.

But, if you don't want to deal with the legal liabilities (public perception, future breed bans, insurance problems, increased chance of lawsuits), an extremely careful search to avoid all the nasty and neurotic Pit Bulls, providing extra amounts of socialization and training to make sure your dog turns out well and counteracts the bad press, aggression toward other animals, rowdiness and exuberant jumping, destructiveness when bored, strong-willed mind of his own (requiring a confident owner who can take charge), and shedding, then an American Pit Bull Terrier may not be for you.
