Each one has his own personality, likes and dislikes, and temperament. Each dog is different and has his own individuality. Society should look upon dogs, especially Pit Bulls, as an individual and not as a whole. Looking at breeds as a whole is where discrimination and stereotypes come into play and can ruin a dog’s
