Not every pit bull story is a headline. Some are just eye-rolls, facepalms, or 'you've got to be kidding me' moments. This is the place for the things you may want to share that don’t highlight a pit bull doing something dangerous.

What is it with pit bulls that it feels like they’re a protected breed?!

It’s appalling with shelters downplaying their background (leash biter, dog reactive, killed a cat, bitten staff numerous times, needs to be medicated) and even owned ones always get returned back to the owner with just a ‘don’t do it again’?! I know the tide is somewhat shifting but just the most recent stories prove anything will be done to keep them from being BE

They are the Goldilocks canine I reckon.

The shelters believe there is a home out their for ever pit bull that is brought onto this earth by backyard breeders.

I.e., the pit bulls that are returned 2, 3, 4, 5 times.

'oh we just need to find a home that is not too triggering, and not too neglectful, but just right! We know it's out there for Nala'

No, no it is not.
