[QUOTE="Hubrat98, post: 719384, member: 23573"] Single-mindedness or "gameness" is the pits forte. That's why fighting dogs will continue to go after another dog even when they can barely walk. It's also where people get the misconception that pits have "locking jaws". It's not that the jaws lock, it's that the dog doesn't want to let go. It's also the scariest trait of the breed. Strong jaws + not wanting to let go = potential big time trouble. Luckily, human aggression has mostly been bred out of APBTs. When the dogs were fought the human handlers were in the ring with the dogs to separate them when needed. If the dogs turned and attacked the handlers they were put down and their genes weren't passed to the next generation. In WWI a pit bull named Stubby earned the rank of Sgt. while serving in 17 battles. He earned the Purple Heart among other medals.
