In Ken Foster’s view, this is unfair to the pups, whose bad reputation comes from their history of being favored in dog fights, dramatically increasing the likelihood that pit bulls would both be bred irresponsibly and raised by owners who would not properly socialize them, or worse, encourage aggressive behavior.
