No matter how sweet or well trained this dog may be it wouldn't be hard for him to accidentally hurt the baby. I wouldn't recommend trying this out.

Pitbulls were bred to be gentle with people. They are extremely careful around babies, kittens, and most anything "squishable".

My ex gf's pitbull was very docile to all people. Her mother brought in a kitten. The normally docile pitbull approached the kitten and without warning bit it, piercing the skull. The kitten died instantly on the kitchen floor with blood spurting out of the top of it's head.

That is a bad story, but it probably wasn't smart to just bring a random kitten into the house without introducing the two of them.

You only get one chance to make a first impression!

Well, they were trying to introduce it, but...
[–]Jaspersong -2 ポイント-1 ポイント0 ポイント 13 分 前
Introduce a pitbull with a kitten?
[–]HermanWebsterMudgett 0 ポイント1 ポイント2 ポイント 5 分 前
yes... all animals need to be introduced before bringing something into a home.
how happy would you be if someone just barged into your house, unannounced and someone you didn't know? Pretty sure there have been stories of being shooting others for entering their homes... you think that's any different just because one had intent while the other was just a kitten? Same context.
Dog was being territorial the way humans are......... how about thinking a little bit and putting yourself in a situation before making such a stupid and ignorant comment.

Wow, researched much? I have a Staffordshire Bull Terrier crossed Labrador, he is the most docile and lovable dog I have owned (Have also owned SpanielxCollie, Mini Dauschaund and and a Lurcher.)
"They have strong nursing instincts around kids and have earned the title "nanny dog" in English homes." link
Often cited as a brilliant breed "If people think that Staffies have problems, they're looking at the wrong end of the dog lead! When well cared for and properly trained they can make brilliant companions.” link
It is the owners who over breed the dog and treat them poorly that make the dogs aggressive, however no dog should be left alone with a child under any circumstance, that is just being irresponsible. Most pets can severely damage a child a dog especially.
Edit 1. Thought I should add my 2 nephews (currently 1&3) love to play with my dog, he gets poked and prodded, gets climbed on and has been bitten by the youngest but just sat there throughout it all wagging his tail, we are always in the room with them but he loves the kids.

Don't worry about it, many Americans have been brainwashed to think what silly_bear666 thinks. My sister has a pit and he is the sweetest. He wouldn't harm a fly.

I was the same way. My parents were too. I was told if I ever move back home that my dog wasn't allowed. I brought her over a few times for my parents just to see how well trained and loving pit she is. Then went through a bad break up and did have to move back home. The dog was allowed to come with me and often spends more time with my parents than me. I was even terrified of her when I first got her. (She was a gift from my ex) I was do brainwashed but now love the breed.

From your link:
"The breed is a fierce fighter"
"an interest in dog fighting led to the emergence of the Staffordshire Bull Terrier in England"
"The early Staffies were bred from local terriers and bulldogs, producing a fierce dog with a nimble size and powerful jaws."
"You will commonly observe lines of aggression when they are around other animals."
"Despite their impressive fighting abilities, this breed is still meant to be a house dog."
And i'm not convinced that a dog being a good "guardian" and "protective of its owner" is good for anyone except the owner.

No idea why you got downvoted. That is EXACTLY what they were bred for.
[–]legendhairymonkey 6 ポイント7 ポイント8 ポイント 35 分 前
No it is not. Some pit bulls are bred for fighting yes, but as a breed they were bred well over a hundred years ago as docile family dogs. They were even known as 'nanny dogs'!
[–]nottodayfolks -7 ポイント-6 ポイント-5 ポイント 33 分 前
None of those exist. The ones knows as pitbull have all come from the fighting bred.
[–]hanrar 0 ポイント1 ポイント2 ポイント 11 分 前
Lol, because every one you have met has been one, no other kind can exist.
[–]HermanWebsterMudgett -1 ポイント0 ポイント1 ポイント 8 分 前
you shouldn't have been downvoted but redditors are a hivemind of dumb asses.
they were once called nanny dogs
