It all depends on how you raise them. They are know to have tempers, thats true but if you train them to be good, they will be fine but they are know to "flip out" if something agitates them but that happends rarely
Well did you buy these 2 puppies from somewhere, or did you breed them yourself.. I would have to go with your mom on this one.. I am a believer that puppies should stay w/ mom til at least 9 - 10 weeks of age.. Mom has a lot to teach puppies, and I believe alot of the behavioral issues you see in dogs today are due to being removed from mom too early and lack of people socialization as very young puppies.. I would put them back w/ their own mom til they are another good 3 or 4 weeks anyhow.
She probably thinks that because those dogs are usually used for dog fighting. But they are NOT like that! They only get like that if they are trained to. If a dog EVER turns on its owner it only does it because the owner mistreats it... and even then they don't want to hurt their owner. Pitt Bulls are not dangerous and never will be. You should let her know that because people think the way she does thousands of animals get put to sleep in the pound everyday. http://friendsforanimals.tripod.com/pitt_bulls.html Have her look at this.
A dog's temperment has a lot to do with how he is raised. If you treat a dog badly and are mean to him, he will become mean. It's not a pit bull's fault people train it to be mean. It's the owner's fault. Pit bulls are actually very good natured dogs and they score as high as Golden Retrievers in temperment tests. So if you socialize them and treat them well, they will grow up to be great dogs. This is the same with any dog.
My opinion about pit bulls is that there are none of them that are any good. They may look so cute as a pup, but every story I have heard and seen on t.v. news about them is bad news. They even kill baby human beings, and that was not a "one time" piece of news that I watched, but I have watched and heard of many killings that pit bulls have done. Terrible isn't it?
Listen to your Mom! I raised a pit bull from an 8wk old pup, she graduated two obedience classes, lived inside, was NEVER hurt or mistreated, was socialized extremely well...heck she even went to college pep rallies with me! Then when she was three years old she attacked me for no reason! Sell the pups and get a collie or shepherd.
yes these puppies should have been left with their mother for a few more weeks. i have 2 pits that are loveable and wonderful and RESCUED. please don't say you bought them. so many out there are dying bc people are afraid just like your mom. you have to love them and go to a vet and see what they think for food....never fight them, never hit them, keep them safe and socialized and you will be fine. be responsible, we're working so hard to get their name clean! please help to do the same :)
awww I love pits sooo many ppl think they are mean!! I am sooo upset by the fact that soo many ppl don't like them!! Most of the cases where it says pit bull attack it wasn't even a pit bull! Oh and btw pi bull isn't a breed! It's a name referred to any dog that looks like an american pit bull terrier it's terrible most ppl don't know that!!

like any other dog, it's all in how you raise them. the poor pit bull's have such a bad name. it's all in how there raised. i no someone that has 2 and are so loveable.
Life through a Pit Bull’s Eyes You breed me to be strong, Now you think you were wrong. I am man's best friend, Now you want me to meet my end. I live to protect the ones that I love, I'm the best of my breed a step above. I'm as good as you raise me to be, I was not born evil can't you see. I come in different shapes, sizes, and colors, I'm here to serve my master just like all the others. My master loves me as if one of their own, When I walk by there side or fetch a bone. Here is a little history about my kind, Always keep these facts in the back of your mind. I lived in the white house with a President named Teddy, During the 1st World War, I was an American symbol can’t you see. Sgt. Stubby was the most decorated war dog and this is no lie. I even lived with the little Rascles once upon a time, I’ve lived with the brightest man ever known, Thomas Edison he created the light bulb, Now that I’ve given you some history about my kind, Let me get back to what’s been on my mind. I feel for people, who have been attacked, But you can't put all the blame on my back. For I'm a creature put on God's great earth, No knowledge of love or hate before my birth. Why do you blame us all for a few bad ones? Do you hate your children because of a few bad sons? One day I hope you’ll realize, For it’s you that has hate in your eyes. It’s not up to you to wipe out a breed, For only God has the power to do that deed. So just remember as I run along, It’s not my breed, but your perception that’s all wrong.
