If you aren't prepared to own a DA dog, getting a pit bull puppy was a bad idea! Despite anything you do, your dog may be dog aggressive. It all depends on how her genetics are written.

It sounds like she's playing like a typical dog. If your dog is submissive and lets her get out of hand, it can get ugly. If your dog is dominant and finally tells her off for it, it can STILL get ugly. If you are concerned, I would stop their play when it gets to that boy and redirect her attention to something else. Start working with commands that let her know she needs to tone down the play, or stop it all together. And remember to ALWAYS keep the two dogs separate by crating one, or both, when you aren't keeping a close eye on them.

At two months old, it is pretty unlikely your pup will exhibit any dog aggression.
