1st of all the pitt is on the agressive animal list.... but you wanna know what else is.

No suprise: Rottweilder and Doberman but guess who else and it tickles me pink. German Shepards and Akitas. A german shepard is way more dangerous to an adult than a pitt bull.

1 they are smarter
2 they are faster
3 they are MUCH heavier.

That pitt weighed all of 45 pounds, the reason the police do not use them is because they are WAY to light to stop an agressor. The pittbull is actually a loose term, most of the ones you are familiar with are mastiff/terrier mixes and they are not agressive as much as they are hyper protective. If the owner is not in danger and is calm the dog is fine, if the owner is endangered the dog WILL defend the house and owner as well as all within with its life and that is the point of the dog.

That dog attacked because it was protecting its owner from an assailant, the dog does not know what a badge or authority is, it only knows my owner is upset by this person, that person must go. Pitts are only deadly to kids and the elderly, but only pitts, rotts and dobermans make the news. I have had 3 pitts and I am no thug or gangster. The dog is the epitomy of a protector and backs down from no one, that I admire in anything that is alive.
None of my dogs were trained to be overtly agressive but they were very protective of myself and my property but I would not say any more than a german shep.
