Your dog is still a puppy, and it is NORMAL for a pit bull puppy to be very dog social/friendly. This is confusing for new owners because it is actually more common for a young pit bull to love other dogs than to want to fight them.

Do not allow this to lull you into a false sense of security as it does so many inexperienced owners. As others have said, she still has plenty of time to "turn on", and there are many degrees of dog aggression. Some dogs are only dog selective, meaning they only aggress at certain individual dogs, or types of dogs, or only males, or only females, or only white dogs, or only dogs that wegh exactly 52 pounds, or whatever.

There are DA dogs that only aggress under certain circumstances like when food is present, or when out on a walk.

There are some dogs that are so DA they will try to kill any dog they see at any time, and some that are cold and wouldn't aggress even if attacked, and everything in between.
