Initiated in 2011, National Pit Bull Awareness Month seeks to educate the population about the fantastic qualities of the oft-maligned category of dogs referred to as Pit Bulls. The dog originated in England, Ireland, Scotland, and the United States.
Pit bulls are a breed created by crossbreeding bulldogs with terriers. These dogs excel in farm work, as work dogs for the disabled and police, guard dogs, and companions. They developed a reputation for fierceness due to their misuse as bait animals, for hunting, and in dog fighting as a sport. There is no evidence to suggest pit bull breeds are any more aggressive or dangerous than other breeds. The common denominator in aggressive dog behavior nearly always traces back to the owner’s behavior and training of the animal. Still, the stigma has stuck, often making the dogs challenging to adopt or the laws target. National Pit Bull Awareness Month aims to correct these misrepresentations and celebrate the beautiful characteristics of these loyal, intelligent, and beloved dogs.
