For almost a decade I have been involved with what must be one of the most misunderstood dog breeds there is – the Pit Bull. Also called the American Pit Bull Terrier, Staffordshire Terrier, Pits and so on. To most people a Pit Bull by any other name is still a Pit Bull. They are the subject of numerous negative media reports. These dogs are known to be bred for bloodsports, where one dog is pitted against another in a ring, much like cockfights.

[Title] => Magic and the mountain
[Summary] => 
Towering at 6’4" and tipping the scales at 250 pounds, PBA cager Ali Peek is used to, literally, living large: food portions Goliath would appreciate, triple X-sized clothing, shoes the size of a full-grown tabby cat, and privileges to the more spacious exit row seats on airline flights. But when it comes to choosing pets, Ali, whose wide berth earned him the court moniker "Man Mountain," got the short end of the deal.
