It can be bred out of them. But genetics and development (How they are raised) always interact - if you breed it 'out' of them and maltreat them ---> you get a fearful 'bad' dog. If you only breed most of 'it' out of them but not all, and rsie them well ---> no problem.

I've known 2 (woman owned) pit bulls - very loving dogs. My problem is that you never know when they are going to flip & attack. Also, they are loving to other pack members, that may not include you.

I agree - why get one. Some cities have banned them. People who get them are either doing a pound rescue, like the pug face, or have some serious psychological issues of their own...
