Are pittbull good family dogs

Answer 1

Yes! But they are not recommended for novice dog owners. American Pit Bull Terriers require intensive obedience training and lots and lots of exercise. Due to their breed standard and history, they are high strung, strong willed, and very intelligent. With all that intelligence and willpower comes a temperament that is easily aggressive if not properly socialized and trained at young age (first 3 to 6 months!) American Pit Bull Terriers make very loyal companions and trustworthy protectors if they are raised in the right way.

Answer 2

If you have little kids NO.

The answer to that question depends on how the dog was raised and trained.

If it is trained to be a fighter then it would definitely not make a good family dog.

On the other hand if it is raised to be a family dog it might be alright.

As with most dogs they bear watching particularly around small children and babies.

Even the most friendly dogs can bite if pestered and teased too much.

Answer 3

Any kind of breed raised unproperly could produce mean and vicious dogs. Pitbulls are the dogs that brings the most difficulty to make mean because of the traits. Generally speaking, pitbulls are a family dog in all the sence.

Answer 4

They are very good family dogs but if you do not associate them with a lot of new experiences at a young age they can be scared in new environments. This is same with strangers coming into your house --strangers to them at least, it may be a friend of yours a family member they hadn't met--they can be shy or (depending on how you treat them) they could growl at the stranger. as long as you are in the same room with this new person the pit bull will not attack unless they feel extremely threatened. Say for instance this person is throwing things around or is punching you (playing around or not) the pit bull will most likely attack the person hitting you because pit bulls are very loyal and close to their owners.

Answer 5

Pit bulls are excellent house pets that thrive on being a part of the family. However, they are a very strong-willed and powerful breed, so they are not the perfect dog for every family. Early training and socialization are vital for creating a happy, healthy pittie
