In the United Kingdom, i would say half pitt bulls are illegal. but please read on for a more detailed answer as to why.

This is an extract taken directly from the Dangerous Dogs act 1991 section 1

(1) This section applies to-

(a) any dog of the type known as the pit bull terrier;

(2) No person shall-

(a) breed, or breed from, a dog to which this section applies;

(3) After such day as the Secretary of State may by order appoint for the purposes of this subsection no person shall have any dog to which this section applies in his possession or custody except-

(a) in pursuance of the power of seizure conferred by the subsequent provisions of this Act; or

(b) in accordance with an order for its destruction made under those provisions;

but the Secretary of State shall by order make a scheme for the payment to the owners of such dogs who arrange for them to be destroyed before that day of sums specified in or determined under the scheme in respect of those dogs and the cost of their destruction.

In summary it is illegal in the UK to be in posetion of a pit bull terrier and it is illegal to breed a half breed dog. Although as for actually owning a half breed is unclear.

i hope i helped although i am sorry for not being able to give a defanite answer, this area of Law is notorious for being unclear.
