Now it's time to shine a light on the good things going on with pit bulls these days. Proud owners in Indianapolis marched with their pit bulls to show people the good nature of these dogs. Some dogs even wore Halloween costumes. (Mine would have worn her ladybug costume if she was there.)
And look -- positive stories about pit bulls in the news! That one's a great story.
Being mauled by a pit bull was painful. It felt like a whip slapping my legs. The mammoth dog whipped my thighs with anvil-like strength. It was his tail. I could have suffocated under the deluge of soggy kisses he forced on me, smack on my mouth.And on the west coast, pit bulls and their owners are hard at work. I wonder how many people know that the strongest of the strongest pit bulls can pull up to 10,000 lbs. Come on -- that's impressive. They deserve to be able to show off their skills. Take a moment to scroll down to the end of the Coastal story and look at all the comments it's received. There's a full debate right there. The fearful ignorant and the proud informed.
Good pit-bull ownership. That's the theme at this Tennessee talent show. Watch the video too. Who wouldn't want to watch the great feats these dogs can do and want to do? It's not like these dogs are bragging -- we proud parents are. Good riddance, pit-bull haters; our dogs can pull tons and then play with kittens the next minute. What cat or chihuahua can do that?

I like the story you linked to about the animals sleeping in the same bed and travelling around together.
If you want another site to go to about pit bulls, try this one: http://www.happypitbull.com/
The lady on there seems really candid, and she seems like she's got the same kind of reaction to the breed that the typical person would.
This is interesting...I didnt know that there were sweet pit bulls. I know thats dumb to say but seriously I have only ever heard bad things about them. Ive just always seen things on TV of how people make them fight and stuff like that and so I can see where people get that perception of them being angry mean dogs that attack people because so many are trained to do that. I guess now I know though that there are sweet ones, like yours!!

The way I understand it the pit-bulls and violence connection is a sort of self fulfilling prophecy. The media reports that pit-bulls are violent, therefore unsavory characters purchase pit-bulls and train them because they desire violent dogs. (I apologize in advance for Godwinning your blog) The same thing happened with german shepherds in Nazi, Germany...
