AMERICAN PIT BULL TERRIER
great, the most strong and lovely dog
Pit Bull is not actually a breed. It is a term that refers to three different breeds, and any mix therein. The three breeds are American Pit Bull Terrier, American Staffordshire Terrier, and Staffordshire Bull Terrier.
American Pit Bull Terriers were originally bred in the 19th century. They are extraordinarily muscular. Despite their reputation, American Pit Bull Terriers can make wonderful family pets!
The American Staffordshire Terrier descended from the English Bulldog, and was developed in the 19th century for dog fighting. American Staffordshire Terriers are extremely friendly and affectionate to people, including children and strangers.
The Staffordshire Bull Terrier was also eveloped in Staffordshire, England in the 19th century. Staffordshire Bull Terriers have long been a favorite family dog in England. They are incredibly affectionate and devoted, and they adore children.
All three Pit Bull breeds have dog fighting backgrounds, and may retain the instinct for aggression toward other animals. Obedience training and socialization are absolute musts! Pit Bull mixes have all of the good traits of a purebred, often without the genetic health issues due to inbreeding. Best of all, when you adopt a Pit Bull mix, you adopt a one-of-a-kind companion.
