What the petition asks
Pitbulls are not dangerous dogs. They are called nanny dogs, they look after their family. They get blamed for all sorts of bad press. If people treated them with respect like any other dog they would know how loving they are.
Pitbulls look after their families and they are very loving like any other dog you can see.
They have been more bites off small dogs than a large one
