No sweat....I used to breed Silky Terriers - cross between a Yorkie and an Australian Terrier, officially recognized by the American Kennel Club in 1959. Sweet, affectionate little dogs who don't shed. Their hair comes out like humans' hair, a bit at a time.

Pit bulls in themselves are not dangerous dogs, any more so than Dobermann Pinschers are dangerous. It depends on the treatment of the animal as it's growing up. If you did the same thing to a child as some dogfighting people do, you'd end up with a psychopathic lump of flesh that could either be a serial killer or a violent suicide. Hell, I'm no psychologist, but I do know that we're all a product of our upbringing. I don't shy away from pit bulls just because of their reputation, I just think they're not that attractive a breed. Now, a pretty German Shepherd....or maybe a Rough Collie, yep, I like those dogs, too. A dog pretty much wants to please its owner, but if the owner is abusive, hey, if you get eaten by your dogs, that's a fitting end.
