One concern however, some Airlines will not fly adult Pittbulls at all. They do have a bad repuation.
Pittbulls were bread to fight other dogs. They are not considered in the man stopper class of dogs (Rottweiler, Sheppard, Doberman) because they are not well suited as guard dogs. They're usually not big enough. Anybody who thinks a pittbull locked on to their arm is more dangerous that a Rottweiler pinning you to the ground, is simply wrong. You'll notice police and millitary use Sheppards, not Pittbulls.
Pittbulls that WERE bread for fighting, needed to be handled by people still. A dog that randomly attacked people, including handlers, would be destroyed.

That?s not entirely true...
They were first bred to kill mice and rats in a pit?
Time passed and they started putting 2 dogs in the pit, they started fighting, and eventually the mice/rats were taken out of the picture.
