What are the roots of the name pit bull?
"Pit Bull" came from dogs that had Bulldog bloodline, that were fought in Pits. Before Dog Fighting, they were used for Bull & Bear Baiting & Ratting. The Bull & Terrier Breeds divided into American Pit Bull Terrier, American Staffordshire Terrier & Staffordshire Bull Terrier. Before being called APBT- they were called the pit dog, the 1/2 & 1/2, Yankee dog, and more. The Bull & Terrier Breeds came about by mixing the White Terrier w/ Bulldogs, they chose the Terrier for it's High Prey Drive/ Agility & Determination & the Bulldog for the Strength & Endurance to create what we know as the " Pit Bull" Breeds. When Imported to the USA, people in the East Coast still used the dogs for fighting, while Farmers moved West & used them as Farm/ Livestock dogs.

How did pit bull dogs get their name pit bull?
they are a mix of bulldogs and the bull terrier, PIT just came out of the blue!AnswerThe history of the pit bull has been highly debated. The name was said to come from the history, so this is worth knowing first.Some people will tell you they got that when bulls had to go to the slaughterhouse, and they were almost herding dogs. If a bull got out of line, they would hold on so that it couldn't escaped and would cower into the herd. That explains the 'bull' part, but 'bull' is also used in bulldog and bull terrier, so that may also mean the previous answer was right.But this is a debated topic, considering some people said that they came from fighters and where bred for fighters, while others say they all along they were bred companions. So, in fact, not all of this may actually be correct.Then people say that they were used in ships to catch rats (pit bull terrier) and go into pits or cages to catch a certain amount of contained rats. People might bet on how many the dog caught or how long killing them would take. But, these were said to be done at separate times. So, that is the 'pit' sorted. But, remember, this is a highly debated topic, and some folk will tell you they were never used for any of this, and fighting was all they did. But it would make sence that this history explained the name.

Are pits used for fighting bulls?
Pit Bulls are the strongest willed dogs. They will do whatever their owner wants them to do and they will be the best they can be at it. Whether they want to do it or not. Pit Bulls are the most powerful breed there is and people take advantage of that. People exploit the goodness in these dogs to make them bad and harmful to others. My second pit bull who is now 2-1/2 was a fighter. She was a drug dealers guard dog and he would fight her and starve her. I rescued her from this horribvle life and she is completely rehabilitated and lives a happy life with her 3-1/2 year old pit bull brother. So basically, you make pits what yopu want them to be
Are pitbulls and bull terriers the same?
If you define a terrier as it is supposed to be defined, then NO, a pit bull should not be classified as a terrier. Terrier means "earth dog," referring to dogs which go to ground for game. American Pit Bulls have never been used for digging out game, though they have been (and still are being) used for hunting boar and other animals. According to the AKC and UKC, they are registered in the Terrier Group (AKC recognizes the Pit Bull as an American Staffordshire Terrier). Possibly, they have been placed in this group due to their gameness, but many current fanciers agree that they ought to be placed in the working group for their talents as herding dogs, service dogs, search and rescue dogs, Schutzhund dogs, and even sledding/weight pull dogs. yes

Is a bitt bull better than a boxer?
No. Pit bulls are bred to bite and never let go. That feature is why they are responsible for nearly 70% of all dog-caused human deaths. Along with Rottweilers, pits are among the most unpredictable dogs, according to the US Postal Service training for mail carriers. In my town, last month, a pit bull which was a family pet attacked the 4-year-old girl who ended up with part of her scalp and face torn loose. About 5 years ago near where I live, 2 pit bulls attacked a miniature pony, pulled it down, and killed it. Last year a friend of mine was attacked by a pit bull . . . she is a longtime veterinary tech and SPCA worker. Her dogs drive the pit bull off. Two years ago in one of our city parks, a pit bull ran the full length of a city park and attacked a couples' little sharpei dog. The husband picked up the sharpei and held him on his shoulder, but the pit jumped up and grabbed the dog out of his hands and tried to kill it. (The size of my town is only 22,000. ) Boxers are generally friendly, exuberant, and as predictable as most dogs are. They are very low on the scale of dogs that bite.
