Pit Bulls have gained a wrongful reputation for being violent and aggressive. Because of this, they are banned from certain cities and are usually found on the “restricted breeds” list for apartment buildings. As the original “nanny” dog, it is sad to see so many of these wonderful animals in shelters, abandoned and unwanted because of their breed.
In fact, it is estimated that 33 percent of shelter dogs are Pit Bulls or Pit Bull mixes, making them the most prevalent breed to be euthanized. As many of 75 percent of municipal shelters will euthanize these dogs on intake, regardless of demeanor and disposition.
Amazingly, according to the American Temperament Testing Society Inc., which tests dogs for stability, aggressiveness, and friendliness, Pit Bulls achieved a passing rate of 86.8 percent for good temperament. This score is better than that of Collies, Golden Retrievers, and Beagles.
We feel strongly that every dog should be judged as an individual. Yes, there are aggressive Pit Bulls. But keep in mind, there are also aggressive Chihuahuas, Labradors, and Cocker Spaniels. A dog’s behavior is greatly influenced by the way they are treated by their guardians and many Pit Bulls are incredibly gentle, loving and sweet. Here are six perfect examples of Pit Bulls being the opposite of their stereotype.
So next time you come across someone who thinks ALL Pit Bulls are vicious, across the board, just have them check out these little guys.
Stella really hates pineapples. This pretty girl thinks the tropical fruit is pretty terrifying, and we don’t blame her. Grab this fruit the wrong way, and you are sure to get a stab from that pointy top! We guess this dog won’t be sipping on a puppy Pina Colada anytime soon!
Styx loves romping on the beach. Chasing his tennis ball is one of the greatest things ever … until it gets taken by the treacherous water. This pittie wouldn’t dream of setting foot in the ocean. Instead, he digs a hole in the hopes of capturing his beloved ball. Eventually, the ball washes up on shore long enough for Styx to grab it and run!
Temper just wants to sit quietly on a beautiful day. Unfortunately, her sunbathing keeps being interrupted by an unusual looking creature. Temper tries to handle the situation politely by getting up and moving further away from the goat, but the goat is persistent in his pursuit for friendship. Temper is not quite sure how to handle all that unwanted affection.
According to Queso’s mom, he is scared of many things: kitchen floors, the printer and doorways – just to name a few. But Queso’s fear won’t slow him down! He has figured out the most hilarious and adorable way to cope with facing doorways.
With a cat sleeping right in the middle of his path, this Pit Bull isn’t going anywhere. Nope, this handsome boy has decided he will wait patiently to come inside until the cat is no longer in the way. We imagine he has felt the wrath of said cat before. When his mom picks up the kitty, this boy is all tail wags and happiness!

having been in animal rescue for many years (and a vegetarian for 25), i decided a while back never to have a pit in my home, or near my animals. their reputation is fully deserved, and we should be banning the breed everywhere, until extinction. there is absolutely no need to have a dog this dangerous in the general public, or even in your home. i have seen too much. they cannot be trusted, and i have seen in firsthand, multiple times.
Thank God!! Not everyone on this earth feels the way you do! Maybe you need to take another look at the people that own the Pits you\’re talking about. Because as it states above ALL dogs can be dangerous and I\’VE SEEN THAT FIRST HAND.
The Pits I know are sweet and loving. Now all the LITTLE dogs I know are biter. Many are beyond hope and should be taken away from their owners or put down. Yes, it\’s that bad.
I\’m so disgusted by your post and shocked to find something like that on this page! You have no empathy and sense of decency! No matter what you have seen you should not generalize and deem all pits evil. You obviously know very little about them – because dogs labeled pits range trough a variety of mixes and breeds and all of them have different backgrounds and temperament. Maybe you need to educate yourself about canince behavior to understand dog aggression because in most cases aggression is not unpredictable. You should not work in animal rescue because you cannot be trusted to treat dogs labelled pits with understanding and sympathy. If you ever helped pit bulls getting killed I hope their souls will haunt you in your dreams the rest of your life.
I totally get the one about sleeping cats LOL and now that you mention it .. I am not so sure about the goat either.
