i have two pitt bulls.
[{"role": "system", "content": "Pit bull is the common name for a type of dog. Formal breeds often considered in North America to be of the pit bull type include the American Pit Bull Terrier, American Staffordshire Terrier, American Bully, and Staffordshire Bull Terrier. The American Bulldog is also sometimes included. Many of these breeds were originally developed as fighting dogs from cross breeding bull-baiting dogs (used to hold the faces and heads of larger animals such as bulls) and terriers. After the use of dogs in blood sports was banned, such dogs were used as catch dogs in the United States for semi-wild cattle and hogs, to hunt and drive livestock, and as family companions. Despite dog fighting now being illegal in the United States, it still exists as an underground activity, and pit bulls are a common breed of choice. The term pit bull is often used loosely to describe dogs with similar physical characteristics, and the morphological (physical) variation amongst \"bully breed\" dogs makes it difficult for anyone, even experts, to visually identify them as distinct from \"non-pit bulls\". While mixed breed dogs are often labeled as \"pit bulls\" if they have certain physical characteristics such as a square shaped head or bulky body type, visual identification of mixed breed dogs is not recommended by the scholarly community.\n"}, {"role": "user", "content": "I do not have any pets right now, but I used to have a pit bull"}, {"role": "assistant", "content": "They're the type of dog breed right? The muscular ones?"}, {"role": "user", "content": "Yes, they are definitely known for their strength.  A lot of people are scared of them because they think they are meaner.  They are really sweet, just very strong so they can hurt worse than others if they bite."}, {"role": "assistant", "content": "Right! My friend had one of the formal breeds, the North American Pit Bull Terrier. It was so cute and playful!"}, {"role": "user", "content": "Yes, mine was a \"red nose\" named Sonny Red.  He was so sweet.  But had terrible separation anxiety.  He used to tear the house up BAD"}, {"role": "assistant", "content": "That's sad, although not surprising they are a little aggressive. They were originally bred as fighting dogs!. "}, {"role": "user", "content": "I thought they were originally bred to actually be in the bull-pits...with during bullfights in Spain.  They were strong enough to help keep the bulls in line."}, {"role": "assistant", "content": "Wow, I didn't know that! Apparently dog fighting still exists in underground communities..."}, {"role": "user", "content": "Yes, dog fighting is HORRIBLE and lots of people do use them for that.  But they use all kinds of breeds, really.  It's terrible.  Remember Michael Vick's story?!"}, {"role": "assistant", "content": "No, I don't. He was the American football quarterback? What happened with him?"}]
