Synopsis: Once known as the "All-American dog" (Thomas Jefferson had two), the story of the Pit Bull is as heart-wrenching and tragic as it is intriguing. Pit bulls have gone from being America’s sweethearts - companions to everyone from the Little Rascals to Helen Keller - to being branded killer canines that are feared, hated, and considered vicious accessories for gang members.
American Pit Bull explores the evolution of the breed from an upper-class working dog and beloved companion to a fighter and guard dog for inner city residents. It examines the stereotypes associated with the Pit Bull, which is also known as the American Staffordshire Terrier.
