I used to walk dogs and had a female pit bull who was the sweetest dog and got along with the other dogs fine.

I had another female pit bull who was a rescue dog and she had problems with men. She'd only let females walk her. She was probably abused by a male when she was younger.

But most of the dogs I had that were rescue dogs had behavioral problems. They'd attack other dogs, growl at strangers, bite me when I'd try to put them in their crate.

I definetely would avoid a male pit bull with an unknown history. He could have been abused as a pup. They could be fine with people but if they see another dog or a small kid they could get very nasty.

And you could have problems taking him to the dog park to play cuz the other dog owners will just grab their dogs and leave as soon as they see a pit bull coming into the park.
