We have owned pitbulls and many of my friends own Rottys and Alsatians, all well trained, exercised, leashed when in public, and well fed and medical shots and care all up to date. They can all be wonderful pets or guard dogs.

My issue is with the fact that such animals can be killing machines, some were bred for their aggressive tendencies and then they are being owned by people that think that chaining them up 24/7 and giving them meals and water is the only responsibility of the owner.
