The history of the Pit Bull can be traced back to the early 1800’s in the United Kingdom. Pit Bulls were originally bred from Old English Bulldogs (these dogs are similar in appearance to today’s American Bulldog) who gained their popularity on the British Isles in a cruel blood sport known as “bull baiting”. One to two Bulldogs were set to harass a bull for hours until the animal collapsed from fatigue, injuries or both. These matches were held for the entertainment of the struggling classes; a source of relief from the tedium of hardship.
However, in 1835 the British Parliament enacted the Cruelty to Animals Act 1835, which prohibited the baiting of some animals such as the bull and bear. Once bull and bear baiting was outlawed, the public turned their attention to “ratting”. This practice pitted dogs against rats in which they were timed to see whose dog would kill the most rats in the least amount of time. The “pit” in Pit Bull comes from ratting as the rats were placed into a pit so that they could not escape. Ultimately, the public turned their eyes upon dog fighting as it was more easily hidden from view and thus the law. Ratting and dogfighting both required more agility and speed on the part of the dog, so Bulldogs were crossed with Terriers “Bull and Terriers”, more commonly known as the first Pit Bull Terrier.

which nonsense lovely dog??

That evil breed is supposed to be called a monster.

Its not intelligent - if you are the owner and you travel for just a month and come back, the chances are that it will no longer recognize you and may attack you.

You cant leave that dog with kids it will likely turn on them one day!

the funny part is , sometimes, thieves may even invade the house it will do absolutely nothing to them.

AND IT ALWAYS KILL THE OWNER. IF YOU ARE IN DOUBT, JUST GOOGLE OWNERS KILLED BY PITBUSS.

GOD PUNISH YOU AND YOU PUT THEM TWO IN THE HOUSE, NA TIME BOMB BE THAT!

VERY USELESS BEAST!

Too much talk. They should be banned in Nigeria. One just nearly killed somebody in Lagos.

Some cities, insurance companies and subdivisions have outright banned them in the USA.

To each his own.

Have you met or known of anyone who was attacked by his pit bull? I own a pit bull. It’s a case of giving a dog a bad name in order to hang it.

They are very loving and affectionate..
All they need is constant training to be acceptable family members.

They are tenacious, courageous and fearless.
Don't say what you don't know.
