Dookie, plz dont buy into all the negative hype mayne. I got a 4yr old son and my girl got two young teenz and we have my Rottweiler and our bluenose pit and I trust both dogz 1000%. Both breedz get a bad azz rep cuz some dumb azz, bitch azz, irresponsible ownerz raise em wrong and end up creating monsterz, but if u raise em right u wont have no problemz.
