I Like Dogs

Why do pit bulls and bulldogs have such a negative reputation?

I've been around both breeds and both have been very gentle and calm with me.

It's not the dog or the breed that makes it violent, it's the owner and the dog being a product of it's environment.

They're dogs just like every other breed.

And, I also really like Shih Tzus and Yorkshire Terriers (off-topic).

A friend of mine owns an apartment complex and his insurance company's rates for pit bulls being allowed on the property increases his rates considerably. Insurance companies are in the business of risk and it would seem that even they have an aversion to the animals.
