Check out the books "Control Unleashed" and "Click to Calm." It is a common mistake to try to correct the outward behavior by punishing the dog for being reactive. This may get results in the short term in that the dog acts less reactive, but it doesn't really solve the problem. The two books above discuss techniques for dealing with the underlying emotions and issues so the dog learns to calm himself and feel less reactive. It takes more time to do it this way, but it is more humane and long term is a better solution.

It depends on how good or bad the nature of their training is. If pit bulls (or any other dog) were trained to be aggressive, bad, and dominant, then expect the dog to be that way. But if you train them to be sociable, friendly, loving, and submissive, then expect the dog to be good.

Absolutely! If you have a toy motivated dog, this is a good way to train it. For example, get them very interested in the toy. Then gently pull it from its mouth and lure it into a sit.
