Hi,
Ninja is actually also mine >.> and he is a wonderful, loving dog.
Honestly, when we first adopted him, I was very wary because of what I had heard about pit bulls. However, I did my research and learned that it's not all what it seems. Pit bulls were initially bred to be, yes, athletic, but also family companions. The few select people that the media focuses on are often to blame for the state of the dogs. It's these few that have cause pit bulls to be feared and even shunned in certain places.
Ninja is my first dog ever and I couldn't be happier. I'm not by any means experienced with dogs; growing up, I was kept more or less away from them. I'm neither athletic nor strong, but I can keep up with my dog because of how he's trained and how he listens. With the dog training classes I've attended and the research I've done, I've come to realize that it's not necessarily the breed that matters but the personality/temperament of the dog, along with the time and effort you put into training and socializing him/her.
It's very disappointing to hear that people continue to shun this breed. If you do a bit of research, you may come to accept that this breed is very loving, to the extent of the highly praised golden retrievers.
Thanks for your time.
