Pit bulls are known as fighting dogs. They have been used as fighting dogs for decades due to their pure strength and aggressive nature towards other dogs. According to Wikipedia, “these dogs purpose inspired the widespread practice of bull-baiting.” (Wikipedia) The bullbaiting sport involved the bulldog fighting against other animals, such as horses, cows, lions, and sometimes even men. By 1835, the sport was banned and outlawed due to much opposition from the people. Dog fighting has been illegal for well over a hundred years, yet it is still being done behind closed…

Here’s a little history on the American Pit Bull Terrior, dating back to late seventeen hundreds, the Pit Bull Terriors were used for bull baiting, hunting, and as family companions. When used as baiting dogs they were trained to latch on to the heads of bulls, bears, and other large animals. This was banned in the early eighteen hundreds and ever since then the notorious dog fighting had begun. Now, dog fighting has been banned and is a felony offense in all fifty states. Many dog breeds have been used for hunting and fighting, and are still used as family dogs today. For example, retrievers, pointers, spaniels, bulldogs and many more. These breeds were created…
Despite this common opinion, an experiment was once performed. Fifty Pit Bulls were rescued from a fighting ring. Forty nine of the fifty dogs were rehabilitated. Some went to shelters such as Best Friends and many are well-loved family members today. The testing used to determine these dogs' ability to fit into society was exhaustive, extensive, and carefully carried out. Pit Bulls are different from other dogs and potential owners need to be made aware of the facts before considering rescuing or purchasing one. For example, a dog lover who has had Bichons all her life will be sorely surprised unless she does her homework and understand the bully breeds. Pits need a lot of structure, a very pronounced human alpha, training, exercise and lots of attention. The owner needs consistency, time, energy and quite possibly some…
Pit bulls have many different stories of where they came from. According to Jon Bastian, the pit bull originated in the 1000’s A.D. They started in Greece. Then eventually Britain took the dogs from Greece and started breeding them there in Britain. Finally, they ended up in Rome after they invaded Britain and took the dogs. Then, they started spreading around the world. Also from Jon Bastian, is the story that they came into existence in the 1400’s A.D. as boar hunters and sheep herders. Pit bulls have also been used to catch pigs that may have escaped the pen. Despite those facts, almost every pit bull is not a fighter. They have also been called mastiffs and bullenbeissers in the earlier days.…
The pit bull breed originates from England in the 1800s. These precious animals were initially raised and trained to fight for entertainment. Around “1835 England outlawed the gruesome entertainment of dog fighting.” Not long after, organized dog fighting became very popular in the United States around the Civil War era. Back then, the United States did not have any laws against these inhumane acts.…
American Pit Bull Terriers were first introduced during World War I and World War II. The job of the Pit Bull was to deliver messages back and forth across the battlefield. Pit Bulls were first bred to bait bulls and bears as a sport back in the late 19th and early 20th centuries, but soon became more commonly used as house pets due to their friendliness towards people. This indeed should open up your eyes to them not really being an aggressive breed simply because they became more commonly used as pets. Another fact about the history of the Pit Bull is the Pit Bull…
Dogs are descended from a tree climbing carnivore that appeared some 40,000,000 years ago; 7,000,000 years ago the Canidae family began to differentiate into wolves, foxes, coyotes, fennecs and jackals. It has long been assumed that dogs were first domesticated in Europe and Asia around 10,000 years ago; they followed nomadic groups eating leftovers and gradually became used as watchdogs and protectors. Recent studies of fossil records, however (see Stalking the Ancient Dog), have generated the hypothesis that domestication occurred much earlier.…

According to Bad Rap, an organization dedicated to rescuing, training, and educating people about Pit Bull’s, the Pit Bull was selectively bred in the early 100’s in the British Isles for a sport known as bull baiting. The name pit bull was derived from putting the dogs in “pits” for “bull” baiting. When bull baiting was banned, the now illegal sport of dog on dog fighting arose. When people crossed the ocean to settle in America, they brought not only their dogs as part of the family, but also the sport of dog fighting (Bad Rap). This lineage of fighting has not plagued the pit bull more than it has in the last couple decades. Within the last twenty years this loyal dog…

He expresses his disgust of being turned down due to his age by using pathos (emotions), ethos (credibility), and logos (logic).…
