tbh I almost unfollowed after reading some later posts about pit bulls, after reading the original Q&A I can see how many things were taken out of context or even twisted. I believe breeding first and foremost determines the behavior of a dog, training is secondary. anyway just felt bad for feeling angry with you so writing to say sorry :P

Haha thank for reading! That’s usually the #1 issue I get whenever I post my opinion, or even just facts… People do not fully comprehend what I’m saying, or they just flat out didn’t read it and assume I said…

If pit bulls are "prone to aggression", why were they used as babysitters back in the day?
