He means most anything outside of a normal diet of kibble and scraps..

don't mentioned a Raw diet if you use it or plan to......or anything that's not considered pretty normal and commonplace.

I've honestly never been around a pit bull. Not once. I'd like to meet a well trained (read, a house pet....not mistreated and used to fight) pit bull though....to judge for myself what their demeanor is really like.

You would think so.

When our dog's groomer heard us mention it, she was shocked!

She kept asking us if it ws safe and how we keep the dog from getting salmonella.

Yup exactly. And if they ask you if you want your Pit to have the ability to guard your house say NO! Act appalled at the thought of a dog protecting your home.

It'd be hard to judge from one dog alone.

I've been around a few. Some I'd trust and some I wouldn't. But I could say the same thing for some other breeds.

It's the same as people thinking all small dogs are yappy. Stupid generalization that isn't always true. My parents have two small dogs that never bark and when they do it's not a yap. And my own pup hardly barks at all and probalby never will. Whereas I know 2 huskies that constantly yap.

Good luck with the rescue. Dogs like this need people like you.

No restrictions here yet, but they are no longer adopting them out from the Ft. Worth animal shelter. In fact, I think we got one of the last ones. Pretty sure Denver outlawed them.

Shameless plug for my guy

They're not allowed here either. Banned in the province.
