They are raised to be that way. Fighting pit bulls involves chaining young dogs with the heaviest chains possible to make them strong and ''harden'' them. Then their ears are cropped (cut off) to make them look tougher and to stop the ears from being torn off. After that, a stray dog is caught, muzzled and tied up for use as a ''bait dog'' which the young Pit Bull is forced to attack. Then the owners organise secret fights in which the Pit Bulls are FORCED to fight each other in a pit. Onlookers bet on which dog will win and which dog will lose or be killed. The loser of the fight (if it is still alive) is then taken out back and killed or left to die. Any breed can be used for fighting - Pit Bulls were the unfortunate breed favoured for this sport because of their strength and agility.
The following is NOT true:
"When they are treated well and trained properly, they are beautiful, enjoyable and safe pets. Any animal has a wild nature and is potentially dangerous, given bad treatment and triggering stimuli."
Pit bulls can be great pets for the reasons mentioned above. But to say that they are the same as other dogs is false and detrimental to the safety of others. The breed is still part of a HUGE percentage of animal control issues, and they get out of hand very often. They are not good family dogs if you don't know how to professionally train them and have a common potential to be very dangerous. The same doesn't hold true for calmer/smarter dogs like Huskies, Labradors, Corgis, and the like.
it depends on how the owner raises them but they are not aggressive dogs.
Actually they are not any better than other dogs. They are just the ones who are most commonly exploited.
They aren't, they are chav dogs.
Pitbulls are domesticated dogs. There habitat is their owners homes.

Pitbulls, like any dog, could be good or mean although, pitbulls most of the times are docile dogs that would rather be mean towards other animal but well trained, these dogs obey the master.
Pitbulls are one of the most docile and playfull dogs in the world. Anybody who has been around them could tell this is true.
Cats are not a normal part of a dogs diet, but people who fight dogs (which are usually pitbulls) will use cats as bait to train the dogs to be mean.
All dogs vomit
All dogs do.
They are not considered herding dogs but I am sure that if you wanted you could train one to be. Pitbulls are good at pretty much anything they are trained to.
They can be trained to do this, but they are naturally wonderful dogs.
