No bad dogs. Just bad owners.
Pit bulls are *awesome* dogs. No dog is more loyal or loving, in my experience. I've never owned one (Selene is terrified of them), but I have several friends who are pit owners, and their dogs are all like giant poodles.
A few months ago, we were at a friend's house, and headed back to the car. There were three dogs in the front yard, two were chained, and the third, a young pit bull, was not. They were all barking, and the free range pit was coming toward us at a trot. Everyone else freaked. I just walked up and gave the dog the attention she wanted. She was a big wuss, and just wanted some companionship. I think she would have gotten in the car with us if we'd let her.
