True American Pit Bull Terrier

look me in my eyes but dont show signs of fear call me with a whistle thats how i know your here walk me with conviction and hold your head up high because for you and only you, you know that i will die if you feed me when im hungry and rub my head and chest i will protect you to the end with my last dieing breath people call me vicious and say that im no good but a heart of a true pit bull is something they never understood i use to fight for you and you knew i never quit i never understood why you threw me in that pit its time for you to take a stand and speak in my stead because a pit without its owner might as well be dead loyalty to our owner was our only goal in mind our stories told through history in books and over time the "pit" is our domain where we matched in dirt and mudd and whence the chain came of our necks our breed was forged in blood when we crossed that line a cur you will not see because a dog that turns its tail is dog that will not be this was our way of life this was also our creed without the game in us you have lost the entire breed

Ah Joh, so eloquent telling of the misunderstanding of the breed. You must own one to speak so eloquently of them. You are gifted in expressing your story so well in rhyme. Love reading!
