Pit bulls get a bad rep. In actuality, pit bulls are some of the kindest dogs there are.
Pit Bull Facts (from the Michelson Found Animals Foundation)
Pit Bulls are not actually a breed of dog. The term refers to a variety of breeds, like the American Staffordshire terrier, the Staffordshire bull terrier and other such mixes of dogs.
Pit bulls were originally bred to catch livestock and serve as family pets.
Pit bulls account for 6% of all dogs in the U.S.
Pit bulls were not bred as guard dogs because they were too friendly.
20% of proceeds from our Good Dog Pit Bull Bracelet is donated to Love-A-Bull, whose mission is " to educate and advocate on behalf of the American Pit Bull Terrier, the American Staffordshire Terrier, and the Staffordshire Bull Terrier (all breeds commonly referred to as 'pit bulls') and pit bull mixes. The message [they] try to spread is that they are dogs, just like any other dog, they just happened to be called pit bulls."
