Pitbulls Should Not Be Banned Essay

There are indeed many reasons why Pitbulls should not be banned and among these is the vicious nature of pit bulls. As much as there are those individuals who may argue that Pitbulls are not loving pets that only suffer negative publicity from the media, the facts on the ground speak a different story. Many individuals from different parts of the US have reported their pets being mauled to death by pit bulls and such cases just go to demonstrate the vicious nature of these animals. It is true that pit bulls tend to be very loyal and loving to their owners, but it is also true that these animals have powerful instincts that drive them to attack other dogs and even human beings. Not only are pets viciously attacked by pit bulls on a daily basis, but also human beings are also often attacked by pit bulls. This is especially true when people end up in territories that pit bulls believe are theirs. Unlike many other dogs species that may let go of a victim, a pit bull rarely lets go of its victim and its powerful grip often results in a fatality.Even though all these facts are true, I still don’t think that they should be banned.

My first reason they should not be banned is that Pitbulls are great guard dogs.The reason they are great guard dogs is because they are very strong, fast & once they bite they are NOT letting go.Another reason they are great guard dogs is because Pit Bulls by nature are one of the most aggressive dogs.Once a Pit Bull is trained to be a guard dog they will be your loyal sentinel that watches your back, senses danger, alerts you of threats, and protects you by attacking intruders.Also through proper obedience training, your Pit Bull will learn to attack on your command and ignore commands and distractive treats from intruders.After all Pit Bulls are very smart so for that there is another reason they are good guard dogs, because they won’t fall in to intruders traps.

My second reason they should not be banned is because Pit Bulls can be very helpful.In the blog it says “He once saved his entire Platoon by warning them of a poison gas attack.” He in this sentence is referring to Stubby the Pit Bull.They help their owners because they will intercede if someone messes with their owner.One final way that they are very helpful is that they are very obedient and will listen to people and do what they are told to do.

The last reason I think they should not be banned is that if they are trained they can be very nice.It says “As working dogs, they were kept as hunters and guardians, as well as herders and pets.” So when they are hunters and all the others I mentioned they are nice but some attacks the Pit Bull could mistake humans for animals and accidentally attack them.Also when Pit Bulls are trained they are trained to be very loyal and protective of their owner.Lastly when they are trained they will still need to be rough when they need to but when they don’t need to they can be nice, friendly and playful.

In my Opinion, Pit Bulls should not be banned.I think that they should be given a 2nd chance.I also think that they should be taken a different look at and should show people that they are not actually as bad as everyone says them so be.So I will keep strong on my opinion and I think that Pit Bulls Should NOT be banned!Those are the 3 reasons that I think Pitbulls should not be banned.
