The American Pit Bull Terrier is a muscular, short-haired, stocky dog of any of several breeds or a hybrid with one or more of these breeds that were originally made for fighting and is noted for strength, stamina, and tenacity. The American Pit Bull Terrier is a purebred dog breed recognized by the United Kennel Club and American Dog Breeders Association, but not the American Kennel Club. These types of dogs are meant to be cared for very well, fed very well, and kept in a big clean environment. There are also two types of Bull terriers. The American Pit Bull Terriers and The American Staffordshire Terrier.

Pitbulls can live for a lifespan of 8-15 years for an American Pit Bull Terrier, and 12-16 years for an American Staffordshire Bull Terrier. Pit Bulls can live a much longer and healthier life by staying well exercised and fed with the correct nutrition. Weight pulling is one of the best and recommended workouts for the dogs. This can help them maintain a healthy strong life. Other types of exercises you can do from just going on a walk, to climbing over 10 feet on a vertical wall, swimming, hiking, or running obstacles.

Pitbulls can become one of the loving protective dogs, but they can also become very aggressive and dangerous. The main reason this can happen is that they don’t get the care and supplies they need and are being mistreated by the owner or others. Pit Bulls don’t always growl or display aggressive body language before attacking. Pitbulls have a very strong bite, strong enough to rip your face off. So, don’t test a Pitbull because the outcome of your winning is very low.
