I'm sorry, that didn't come across the way I wanted it too. I am trying to say that most pit bulls are the sweetest things with the right owners, and small dogs can be too, but it seems like more irresponsible owners buy small dogs, and they end up being nippy and mean. I have seen small dogs that are nice, it depends a lot on the owner. Again, I am sorry this did not come across the way I meant it too. :'(

When will people realize that it is the owners not the dog. Saying that I get nervous when any dogs are around and off leash (anywhere other than an off leash park). It is the dog because they can hurt you but it is more I have no idea who the owner is and how they have trained the dog and just because they yell out it is Ok he is friendly as the dog is running to my children doesn't put my mind at ease. I don't think that banning breeds is the answer but I also believe that people who have "working" types of dogs who can do damage to other people have to respect and realize that you can't leave a pit bull just sitting outside of a store door where people have no choice but walk inches away from it. Like I said it is the owner not the dog but people have no idea who you are and how you trained the dog.
