Pit Bull Behavior And Socializing
From the very beginning of the society, man
showed his propensity and strong affection towards animals. The
everlasting bond between man and wild and domesticate animals
highlight the sweet rapport and humanity. Man is rational animal
therefore he has the heart to feel love and affection. So far as
other irrational animals are concerned they are not able to express
such love and affection without the assistance and interference of
human beings. Therefore wild animals can be more friendly and
intimate if they are given proper training and care.
So far as the Pit Bulls are concerned, they are ferocious and
aggressive dogs and they can tear anyone into pieces. But with
proper training of obedience, they can show love and affection in
return. They prefer human association and friendship. Pit Bulls are
considered to be one of the famous breeds of dogs. These Pit Bulls
are also known as American Staffordshire terrier and American Pit
Bull terrier. However those who are really interested to nestle
these dogs must have some basic information about their nature and
temperament. This type of information is very essential to make a
rapport with the Pit Bulls. One should know that the average life
expectancy of this breed is between 12 to 14 years. So far as the
healthcare is concerned these dogs are often under the attack of
some diseases like hip dysplasia, cataracts, allergy including parvo
viral infection. There is no denying the fact that they are very
much fond of spending time with human beings. They prefer human
association and family. Therefore it is very easy to make them
obedient and polite.
However without proper socialization one can face shortcomings to
let them mingle with human society. The disadvantage of this dog is
its tremendous aggressiveness. However this type of awkward hot
temperament is basically byproduct of the antipathy and connivance
followed by ignorance the owners show in taking care of these dogs.
Often it is seen that due to aggressiveness many prefer to send them
to Pit Bull rescue centers where they are taken care of. If the
rescue center pays much attention to these dogs they must be
obedient and well disciplined. One should be much careful when they
let them play with children. They can pounce on children as they are
little bit short tempered. In addition they don't like other dogs of
the same sex. Therefore it will be better to isolate them from other
dogs of same sex. Their attacking attitude can be detrimental to the
protection of lives.
