@ Psydal.... i know the pit's owner. the dog's name is King and he is ADBA registered as an American Pit Bull Terrier. the dog lives two houses down, and he is now 4 1/2 years old. he's a great dog, very protective, but he hates other males just like my dogs do. he's 75 lbs, rock solid. the man breeds him and sells the pups for sum major bucks. all pups are ADBA registered. so trust me homie, he is no "back yard pit." my dog just got the best of him, and i have to believe it wuz his size and power that led to him whooping on King. our dogs are ABA registered, very large, very protective, very aggressive toward other males.... their size brings immediate intimidation, which definately makes people think twice before entering my yard.
i can only make judgements on my experiences with both breeds of dogs. ive had more experience with pit bulls, and i do know the history of their breed. my uncle has two American Pit Bull Terrier's, which i just refer to as PIT BULLS, and he also breeds them and has been doing so for many years. bcuz of this, pits were my favorite breed for a very long time. i got a hold of an American Bulldog and since then my opinion has changed.
dont get me wrong, i love pits as much as the next guy, i just prefer another breed now. people having pit bulls seems like a fad to me, just like how everyone is a crip these days. these clowns see these dogs on TV with their favorite rap star and they just have to have one. i could have had one of King's pups free of charge, but i chose my American Bully instead. it's all a matter of preference and experiences with the breed. i chose American Bulldog over pit, many will disagree with me for the same reason i mentioned above (jocking the breed bcuz of certain people having them)....
