My Pit Bull Terrier
Aug 10 2006, 1:29 PM EDT
My Pit's name is Lexus and she is the sweetest dog. It's sad that Pit Bull's have the reputation they have. If I had room for another one I would get another in a heart beat. But we already have a Beagle and four cats also. 2  out of 3 found this valuable. Do you?

We took in a stray no shelter would take because of breed. We guess she is about 8 months. She had no colar microchip. She gets along with our 2 other dogs. The one is a little timed though. He usually barks at other dogs. She gets along with the kids. My 15 year old daughter will walk her. She will sleep in bed with my son. My biggest problem is our cats she WILL KILL them. Our lab mix is in on it to. The lab mix got along fine with the cats before the Pit came into the house. I am going to take her to Obendence training and get her spayed. Do you find this valuable?

My pit is awesome too..i found him in the middle of the street 10 years ago as a little puppy and he has been the best dog! I had two other dogs who he got along with all their lives - but the cat thing is a problem. He has always wanted to chase them and, i think, finish them off. But no problems with other dogs or people including kids. Do you find this valuable?

Unfortunately most pit bulls are animal aggressive to some degree. I don't think it's abnormal that they would want to kill a cat, especially if not raised with them from puppyhood. And I'd bet the Lab is acting by pack mentality- the pit bull gets very excited and stimulated from chasing the cat, so the Lab feeds off of it and joins in. Obedience training might help with it, but it's definitely never a bad idea to go through it with any dog. Do you find this valuable?
