My pit is well socialized but he is under my supervision when out of his kennel. I turn him loose with all my other dogs but I make sure they are always getting along.
I work 13 hr shifts so my wife lets him out alone (if I am not around) and he is under her supervision as well.
We might be overdoing it but I do know once a good pit gets fired up something is going to die...That is why we watch him close... as well as the ones we have owned in the past.
As soon as I get some 1/4 pit in a few mtn curs I will not need this APBT and he will be sold or given away.
To answer the question small kids are allowed around the dog as long as I am around. If a young teenager feeds and lets him out...is ok but the dog is let out alone and I don't have to supervise.
This is a pain in the rear and that is another reason why I will get rid of him when the time is right...
Yep, some of you will call it over kill but I have heard and seen pitbulls get loose and go catch a cow and actually kill an 800 pound steer (friend of mine paid for it
) and also catch a horse by the nose...etc. etc.
Once a pit catches a cow it is hard to break them of it.
got off the subject...but that is how I see it with the pits...
