Answer
Hi Pam,

Well good thing u did look at the pit bulls ! yes i admit that they look pretty scary but believe me they should actually be called pit bears they are so loving ! let me explain something first pit bulls are dog aggresive and NOT human aggresive ... i have started a small web site about pit bulls with a lot of information and pics that will show u just how loving they really are specially with kids. by answering your question fully here will just be telling u what i allready have on the website so please make a turn there and i am sure u will think differently about pit bulls then. i have covered the history and general information of the pit bull and i am possitive that all your questions will be answered there and if not please do not hesitate to ask some more. you can find the website at www.pitbull.g2gm.com make sure u come back every once in a while because i will be updating it as and when i get a chance. and please keep me informed as to what dog u picked !
you keep well now and have a fab 2005 !
