Pit bulls need a certain amount of training for control

Dear Editor,
I have been the proud owner of a pit bull for almost 9 years, and I have friends that have been breeding these dogs for many years. I happened to be in Guyana in April when those dogs killed the security guard. And so far I have not heard any of the authorities come out with any statement about the ownership of these dogs.

Like I said, I have been a owner of a pit bull since January 2000, but before I got that dog I did research on the breed.

The dog was bred to guard grain pits against rats (pit bull) but they are trained for fighting because of their agility, strength and ability to withstand pain.
