This is the hazard of breed-specific legislation - perfectly friendly and sociable dogs are suddenly labeled "vicious" or "dangerous" because they are visually identified as being related to a particular breed. Unfortunately, there is breed-specific legislation in muncipalities and cities around the United States and often the public supports these because there is a common belief that "pit bulls are bad and aggressive".
The American Veterinary Medical Association (AVMA) does not support breed-specific legislation - you can pull up their position statement from their web site (www dot avma dot org). Unfortunately, even though your dog may be a registered service animal and model canine citizen, because of his conformation the laws or ordinances of your locality have legally identified the dog as vicious.

Why is the argentine dogo a rare breed?
Mostly because of Breed Specific Legislation (breed bans) making this breed illegal in many countries and states. The breed is a victim of serious stereotype caused by the media portraying it as a vicious, child-killer. This, of course, is not true as although they can become aggressive if not raised responsibly, they can also make amazing pets that are much loved members of the family.

Are pitt bulls more vicious then any other dog?
Not necessarily. They are more blindly loyal to their pack leader, four-legged or otherwise. As such, they will do more on behalf of their human, and tolerate more abuse without lashing out. Unfortunately, this means that they attract the sort of humans that should NEVER be allowed to own dogs in the first place. But as a dog breed, no, they are not intrinsically more vicious. Just more likely to be abused. yes and a breed of dog isn't 'vicious' it depends on the verry dog itself not the whole breed and how that dog is raised if its raised with love most likely it will be a nice dog but if its raised abused and misstreated it is more likely for it to be vicious.
