    This proves how awesome pit bulls are. They are easy to train because they are very smart dogs. Loyal, gentle and they love to please their owner. They love children too. My sisters and I had a blast growing up with our pitty. I loved my pitbull so much. She was the best thing that ever happened to me.

    I used to just love Petey their dog, he was a pitbull in those days they were beloved pets and sometimes called nanny dogs because they were good with kids and would protect them. Now some are bred for fighting and some have been ruined for being a family pet. Oh for the innocent days...

      There were actually a few Pete the pup dogs that were used by Hal Roach up until 1938 for various different stunts and tricks. The first full time Pete the pup was an American Pitbull Terrier named Pal that had a natural circle almost completely around his eye and Hal Roach used dye to complete it the rest of the way around. Pal passed away in 1930.
      The second, slightly smaller and most filmed Petey that appears in the largest majority of total shorts after the original Pete passed, was indeed a Staffordshire Terrier. He is the one that is seen the most. Hal Roach used a permanent dye to replicate the circle of the original Pete to keep the magic of the character alive just as if he had never left.

      Derrick Ryan back in those days the American pit bull terrier and amstaffs were the same breed. Petey was dual registered as a pit bull by the UKC and as an amstaff by the AKC. The reason is the AKC wanted to remove itself from dog fighting, a legal popular sport at the time.

    • @elithepitbulldog2209
      @elithepitbulldog2209 7 років тому +4

      Cathie Asti petey was a Colby pit bull, the oldest purest pit bloodline in the US. Petey was dual registered by the UKC as an American pit bull terrier and by the AKC as an amstaff who was trying to remove itself from dog fighting which was popular and legal at the time. Both amstaffs and APBT were the same dog back then, but over time the amstaff breed has been corrupted for the sake of dog shows (looks) while the APBT has remained unchanged and looks like he did 500 years ago. Speculation is tha mastiff was added to the amstaff to give it a bigger head and more square look. The so called "blue nose' pit bulls are actually amstaffs, whose blue or grey color comes from mastiff which was a popular color back in the 1800s.

  • @MrPtrlittle
    @MrPtrlittle 10 років тому +3

    Precisely! Cesar Milan had an article on his site saying the same thing. It says back in the 1980's, as the breed became popular as a guard dog, backyard breeders started breeding specifically for aggression. The pit of today may or may not be the friendly pit of yesteryear, because many lines have been ruined by bad breeding.

    @joeluis98 There were different Petes used throughout the series. The first Pete had the circle on the right eye. The second Pete (who came in after the first one passed on in 1930) is the one we're seeing here. He had the circle on the left eye. The third Pete came in after Pete # 2 retired in 1932. He had the circle on the right eye.

    But they used several different dogs, and many of these "bully breeds" are so similar. Important thing is how well this guy behaved and how he was easily trained!!! He should be a "good dog poster child" for when people say the breed/s are impossible / no good. I do admit, there are bad / evil dogs out there. Seems some humans make them that way.....
