Pit bulls have a bad reputation, they used to be trained as killers and fighters, but then it changed but unfortunatly some are still used for dog fighting. The word "bull" comes from the old English sport BULL-BAITING. They were born to fight and bait bulls. Now we are trying to stop dog fighting once and for all, and we could start by giving today's pit bulls a good home. So the truth is that they are wonderful pets.
