18 Happy Velvet Hippos Prove That They're So Much More Than A Scary Stereotype

Hello, pup heads! How is everyone spending their Saturday? Hopefully, well and surrounded by loved ones - that's the most important thing. For today's pupperoni treat, we've compiled a list of 18 good boy and good girl Pitbull doggos showing us that they're not as scary and dangerous as everyone makes them out to be. Listen, we're not here to discredit or victim blame, we're well aware that there are many instances where Pitbulls demonstrate dangerous behavior, but… is it really their fault?

If we take a moment to step back and think about it, Pitbulls are often times raised in environments that are fuelled by aggression and violence. They're bread for street fighting and heavy guarding, so it's natural they too, grow up to be aggressive, no? Think about it, when you live your entire life in a certain environment without knowing anything outside of it, how can you not be influenced by it?

"I just wanted to come here and share pictures of my babies. I am so tired of people in my life telling me pits are vicious. Anytime anyone asks what kind of dogs I have I'm afraid to tell them because I just don't want to hear it. These are the sweetest babies in the world??"
