Bryant I don't think I have ever read more true words than that except for the part my pit would not protect his own tail if it was not attached or there is a diller around lol
That’s a good thing. An APBT was not meant to be aggressive and was in fact in the old days culled out if it demonstrated a man biter characteristic.
Some of the most famous and fiercest pit dogs in history were stolen right off their chain spots. Don’t get me wrong they will defend their family with no regard for themselves, but should not turn on someone if unprovoked. Their a reason that a lot of the old great dogmen kept their dogs guarded and that is because just about anyone could walk up and take them off their chain.
IMO APBT’s becoming mainstream was their biggest downfall. People bred away from the original traits that once made them the most respected breed of dog in the US. There are still performance bred lines out there, but you have to do your research and your chances of obtaining a good one are slim to none. .
This is one that I am using to breed CDs now

http://www.apbt.online-pedigrees.com/modules.php?name=Public&file=printPedigree&dog_id=248664Which has produced some talented young bulldogs that are absolute monsters on a hog.
These are high caliber bulldogs bred for generations based on their performance and producing ability alone.
Gameness, talent, wind, fast mouthed, speed, and smarts are some of the traits that I look for in a bulldog.
They are by no means a super dog and not meant for everyone, but I sure like em.
