Yes, believe it or not you really should brush your short haired American Pit Bull. Regular brushing will help spread the natural oils in your dog's skin and coat, which can potentially help keep the fleas from starting a colony, which can potentially infest your house and yard.
Fleas and ticks can cause a number of health concerns for your dog if the infestation gets out of hand, so definitely consider using a soft bristle dog brush and/or a flea comb to help prevent fleas as best as you can.
Choosing the right brush and flea comb can aid your short haired Pit Bull. Even though the breed doesn't suffere tangles, regular brushing can help to keep the fleas down, so in my book, it's definitely worth the extra 5 to 10 minutes.
