MYTHBUSTER: Pits cannot ever be trusted around other dogs

Pit bulls, after careful assessment, and when treated and trained appropriately can be around any type or size of dog. I cannot stress enough how well people should educate themselves about the pit bull breed before buying or adopting one. They can be the most amazing pet you will ever have if they are trained and cared for appropriately. Pit bulls, besides having large amounts of strength, pain tolerance and energy, they also have a great willingness to please their owner. These characteristics play a big part in the reason pit bulls are chosen for dog fighting.
