#2 American Pit Bull Terrier

Pit bulls are problematic dogs. They are, after all, statistically more likely to bite you than almost any other breed of dog. You might not be aware, though, that when people refer to “Pit Bulls,” they actually mean a variety of different breeds, including Pit Bull mixed breed dogs.
