every pit i've met has been a huge sweetie, and i'm instinctively scared of dogs since i got bit when i was a small child. i think they can smell it and turn on the love, kind of like when a cat can tell you're allergic and wants to make you more allergic.

english bulldogs, on the other hand, i am not comfortable with. maybe it's because the one family in town who has them are assholes.
