What gives?
Why is this breed so vicious? I refuse to socialize my dog with them because of his size, I don't understand how a breed can be so vicious???
Now I do understand they have a history of violence because people have historically been raised to kill, but the owners I keep seeing are not thugs, so I'm unsure if their just perhaps mean dogs by nature?
I almost feel like due to the fact the dogs are so feared by many, and dogs can smell fear, they require much more dominance (since they are Pack dogs and need you to be the leader)

Unless trained to be "viscious", pit bulls are not inherently that way. Nor are Rotts. Nor are any other dog. I have 2 malamutes, they're about 30% wolf, and they're gentle, non-violent, friendly dogs. If you train an animal to be a certain way, they will be, it's that simple. The reason that pit's and rot's are bread to be fighting dogs is because of their strength and ability to lock their jaws (in the case of the pit bulls).
