This site was created to notify people of the Pit Bull Awareness Day which this year is Saturday, October 25, 2008. It was also created in hopes that some people may look beyond the stereotypes and learn about what wonderful dogs American Pit Bull Terriers and American Staffordshire Terriers really are. They are full of personality, incredibly intelligent, athletic and form a strong bond.

In the 24 years of testing over 185 breeds of dog, the American Temperament Test Society rates the Pit Bull at 83.1%. This is higher than the national average for all other breeds of dog. This means the Pit Bull has the best overall temperament. The American Pit Bull Terrier also rates high in the Canine Good Citizens Test. The Pit Bull is used for Search and Rescue and as a Therapy dog. Two US Presidents owned Pit Bulls and countless famous people own them. In our country more families own the Pit Bull than any other dog breed in existence. (WAFAmicus Alabama 2002)
