Involving the Michael Vick scandal, many dogs were taken. Personally, I think that they should be given a chance. They should all be evaluated thoroughly on multiple days, as even dogs have bad days. Then the ones that pass temperament test after temperament test, should then be put through extensive training in order to make sure that they will not show aggressive tendencies in the future. Just my opinion though. We'll all see what the animal behavorists and the government of Virginia have to say about it.

Pitbulls in today's society
In today's society the American Pit Bull Terrier, is known as the derogatory pit bull. 'Pit bull' emmits a bad aroma, leaves a bad taste in one's mouth. It's just not a good thing... For what reason? Becuase they're strong dog with a stronger will. Because they're stubborn. Because they're silly. Nope...
Pit bulls in today's society is a bad thing. To say, 'I think I'm going to get a pit bull,' leads to stares and disbelief.
Pitbulls like any other dog breed is nothing more than a group of dogs with the same historical background and similar appearance. This group of dogs just happens to have a bad reputation due to bad owners.
Some people see their historical background of bull bates and dog fights. They see their strong will, stubborness, and powerful musculature. Those people turn the gorgeous pit bull breed into monsters. They have ruined the loving image of Petey from the Little Rascals.
What's not understood in today's society is that this breed of dog was tailored for dog aggression. Not people agression. These dogs have always been nothing more than family pets, even in historical dog fights. Historical dog fighters were family pets first. If any signs of people aggression were shown, the dog was put down, not prized.
Today's society sees 'pit bull mauls woman,' but they don't see the other side of the story in which the same pit bull plays with the other neighbor's children. Why isn't that side of the dog portrayed? Why is the only side of the dog seen, the one that portrays the bad? Is there not enough bad in today's world, that we have to find something bad in our dogs? Yes the dog did something wrong, but isn't it only fair to show both sides?
In a human trial, don't we see the good and the bad. She was an active volunteer for the Salvation Army, but she aided 3 major bank robberies. He raped 5 women, but did you know that he volunteered with the homeless? We hear those stories. Why don't we hear about the dog's sweet side?
In any sense, pit bulls are only what they're made. You must make a bad dog. You can make ANY dog bad. It just so happens we only hear about bad pit bulls.
