As subscribers to Dogster, we have read their latest article online in regard to some of the myths surrounding pit bulls and greyhounds–myths which have placed a huge number of unnecessary pit bulls in shelters and unfortunately with most never adopted out and having to be euthanized.

Pit bulls, like any dog, need to be judged on an individual basis.  Many fighting dogs have been rehabilitated and gone on to be loving family pets. That’s not to say all pit bulls can be saved, there are some that are too far gone to ever be safe in anyone’s hands. The bottom line is the dog shouldn’t be judged by appearance only, there is a lot more that needs to be taken into consideration. Pit Bull Rescue Central is an  invaluable resource for information on all things related to pit bulls, including dogs that are looking for a home.

Greyhounds, on the other hand, are not rejected because of a bad reputation but the worry they are so high-energy they aren’t good in the house. This is totally untrue, they actually make very good couch buddies.

If this is a subject which strikes near and dear to the heart, please read more from Dogster’s article at  “How Well Do You Know Greyhounds and Pit Bulls?” You might just learn some important information about a  couple of the most controversial dogs on the Internet!
