Dogs are often known as “Man's best friend” and come to find out it is true. As my dog who I received as a Christmas presents in 2011 turned out to be my best friend who helped me survive high school and now on to college.

As pit bulls are not so friendly when it comes to their kind, but it is a different story with humans as they display characteristics of being playful, and caring. So although pit bulls can be aggressive they should not be banned from communities In Tucson due to bad stereotypes, bad owners, and the experiences I shared with my pitbulls.

Yet, people tend to exaggerate and explode the media when a dog bite and/or attack was done by a pit bull. (Gladwell 1) Or they get the name that pitbulls are not a family dog, as they were believed to first be used for Bull Baiting and Dogfighting but before that pit bulls were often used as babysitters for children.(Stevens 1) So although a pitbull can be known for its “aggressive behavior” or “untamed tendencies” yet, the characteristics missed are the stereotypes that should be mentioned

They are doing this since they believe pit bulls are dangerous naturally, but all dogs have the potential to be dangerous and attack humans, not just pit bulls.
