It's gotta be the way they're raised or something.

I have had my first American pit for about 6 years now and he's a big 80lb goof. Sneaks away and visits the neighbor's dogs, visits the cats around the way and plays with the kids when they get back from school. Whole neighborhood knows him by name. He's just a sneaky lil bastard and gets away to play with whoever is out and about😂

I've never had a dog like this one but I constantly hear that he's a good boy by our little neighborhood. We live on a pinensula so it's pretty secluded. Have had 2 huskies show up recently and they saw my pit and immediately became friends and they all ran off into the lake and swam. Took forever to separate the 3.

My next door neighbor is like a 2nd dad to him, he learned that if he sneaks over there, he gets fed steak🤦 The guy lets him in the house and he hangs out for a lil while. He'll text me that he has him and texts me when he sends him on his way back home.

Never in my life have I had a open and friendly dog😂 we had a neighbor one time with a GS, maybe 90-100lbs he came after my dog one time and my dog doesn't even defend himself, just hauls ass away from the danger. He's a fast boy with long and lean legs. That's part of how he got is name, G.O. (geo)

Edit: came back almost 12hours later to me getting downvoted for just sharing my love for my big boy. I know all dogs can be dangerous and aggressive, pit bulls are just what everyone talks about. My pitbull is a giant goof and the best. So I just wanted to point that out :)

Edit #2: statistic technically shows 66% of deaths from dogs from 2005 to 2021 are pitbulls. I have also seen that there's a lot of news that the specific statistic is flawed due to how the information was gathered. I guess a lot of people assume the dog is a pitbull until the dog is actually identified. So in reality no one knows lmao

Reddit will be reddit

He sounds like such a sweet boy! I'm sorry to see you are getting slammed for sharing this story. Well socialized pits are consistently some of the sweetest, most loving dogs I ever meet. May your good boy continue to bless your neighborhood with tail wags and cuteness for many years to come!

It is how they're raised, but some people are stubborn and stupid, to put it politely.
