Imagine your dog being put down or abused just because someone else thought he or she was mean when they actually are a really kind, loving, and loyal dog. In this paper I am going to talk about how I think that pitbulls should not be illegal based on people’s opinions of their reputation, I’m also going to talk about the different types of abuse they receive, truth and exaggeration, and training them.
There are many different types of abuse that can happen to pitbulls, and most of the abuse is using them to fight with other dogs, animals, and even people. Sometimes if they don’t do the job right by hurting the opponent severely, then they get hit or even abandoned. Pitbulls are treated very poorly in society …show more content…
Every time you chain a dog up, not just pitbulls, they get meaner and meaner every day, because what dog wants to be on a chain 24/7? All they want is to play with you and love on you. Chaining them up and leaving them out there for long periods of times, they will think they are being abandoned, or that you don’t even care about them. If you’re chaining your dog up for long periods of time then maybe you shouldn’t have a dog if you can’t give it the time and effort it needs to be an amazing dog.

Pitbulls like to have their own small space to do all of this in. However you don’t want this area to be their punishment spot, as then they won’t be able to sleep there because they will feel miserable, like they were being a bad dog, and as if they are not welcome in some circumstances. When pitbulls are young you need to train them not to bite. Yes, it might be a playful nip but when they are full grown, they will think it’s okay to bite people when it really is not. To help them learn not to bite people or certain things you need to get them chew toys so they can get their anger and playfulness out on something other than your hand. When they start to nibble or bite on you, you simply need to say no and show them that it hurts you so then they learn that something is wrong when they do that action. For all the training of pitbulls you mostly just need patience, time, and effort or they are going to take over. Be a
