HISTORY OF THE PIT BULL
The American Pit Bull Terrier is a companion and family dog. They were originally bred to “bait” bulls, then evolved into all-around farm dogs, and later moved into the house to become “nanny dogs” because they were so gentle around children. Their tenacity, gameness, and courage make them popular competitors in the sports of weight pulling, agility, and obedience competition.
