Initially, the United Kingdom and later, Americans are obsessed with bloody fights between the cows and dogs. The main function of the dog is clinging to the bull's neck and worry the poor animal to death. Clearly, this dog has developed great strength in their jaws.

Among the popular choice for sport dogs are pit bulls. Back then, the selection of pit bulls are so varied that many showed various characteristics that make a very interesting exercise. Later in the life of sports though, the focus shifted to the fight between pit bulls and not against the bulls themselves.

These canines rooted most bull terrier dog we know today.

One important bull terrier dogs we have are the American Staffordshire Terrier is very interesting because it has the opposite character was interesting.

They project strength and physical power, but they are not evil. In fact, this dog is very much related to his relationship with his family, especially among children. Physical properties were now only because of their nature and orientation during their bloody fights as fighting machines. But this does not negate the fact that they can sometimes show aggressiveness which may somehow work against them. However, this can be left with a loving nature and devotion to the human family. Thus, he has a stable temperament makes them good pets and excellent supervisor.

AmStaff terrier, as called by the shorter name suffers in reputation though since it is commonly associated with pit bulls. This dog is famous for challnge love and because it is used in illegal dog fighting.

Most of the root problems of the training irresponsible. Unfortunately, there are too few trained AmStaff. And even what is sad is that there are so many pit bulls are constantly ill-treated by sadistic owners.

We are often confused about what is true pit bull. In fact, many argue that these dogs should not be called by that name because it led to an unwanted images bloody dog fights. While the breed is not officially recognized by the American Dog Breeders Association or the American Kennel Club, the legitimate name remains to be the American Pit Bull Terrier.

While it is true that American Pit Bull Terrier is violent in nature, this does not mean that they are made purely for the goods brutal. As we have previously said, this dog is just a product of persecution and exploitive training (and inhumane) for self-serving purposes. If not, the American Pit Bull Terriers can be very people loving.

This is also known as hard workers they are where they excel from. They also like excessive physical activity will deplete their power reserves. Thus, this type is very good for those who need company during athletic training. If you are a couch potato's personality, please find another breed that match your lifestyle.

To remove items, American Pit Bull Terrier are not officially recognized not because of ill reputation but mainly due to the belief that it is not a race. One of the main standard for the dog to be distinguished as a member of the Kennel Club is that it must be race. Until more comprehensive findings on its origin is found, this dog will remain unfortunately tagged as "evil".
