In my opinion, pitbulls are wonderful dogs. Any dog can be aggressive and quite a lot of the time, its the owners fault. Also, you can have a pitbull in the UK if it is muzzled,wears a lead, is neutered, is registered, microchipped and insured.



Your wrong about them being allowed in the UK. They are banned full stop, it doesn't matter if they were a muzzle or anything you said, banned. If you have one it is taken and humanley uthenised.

I guess it would be really difficult to get one but I have seen people with them/know people that have had them before.

I really don't want to start an argument...

Wasn't even paying attention to the convo, but I saw this and it won you a lot of respect from me.
It's so hard to find people that can say "thanks for correcting me"
Attention: Generous souls of CS!
My little brother's 13th birthday is May 10th, and since he loves this site so much, I wanted to do something special for him!
I'd like to surprise him with a truckload of pets!
(Alas, since I'm a newbie myself, I could really use some help.)
I'll accept any and all donations (items included) and all will go to the birthday present folder for my brother. I'll keep track of who donated what, because I'm sure my brother would want to thank you for your generosity.

I hope you'll help me make it a special Chicken Smoothie birthday for him! <3

I love pitbulls. They aren't banned here. I HATE how people think that they are mean. It's their owner who makes them mean.

Unfortunately, this just isn't true. It can also be because of bad breeding that a dog is aggressive, or just not right in the head.

This is true :D

I can dig up a study proving aggression is genetic if desired. It goes back to the fox study. (They'd place the fertilized eggs of friendly mothers into aggressive mothers, and aggressive eggs into the friendly mother. The friendly mother's still came out aggressive, and the aggressive mother's came out friendly.

Yes that could be the case, but most of the time is because of the owner. Being left on a chain and not loved.
