  1. Accidents of nature occur in dogs and humans. Some pups and some kids are just born psychopaths. But with 99.99% of dogs, if you raise it properly, it will be a calm, well-behaved dog. Every pit or rott I've ever known was gentle with its family. Depending on how bad the owner was, the dog would be more or less aggressive towards strangers. I just never felt like pits or rotts were very practical dogs. They're city dogs, never far away from shelter. Most rotts would be pretty useless on the trail. Good for pulling a milk cart at a slow walk from a couple miles out of town. Every farmer I've ever known, and all the farm kids I grew up with, had guns close to hand. As soon as a kid's big enough to hurt themselves with one, they're taught about them. They watched their dads (and sometimes moms) shoot, field dress, and at least hang a carcass, if not butcher it, themselves. You don't deprive a child of a roof over their head because they might kill themselves falling off it. On a farm, you are the nearest law enforcement. That pistol's no good to you in a pinch if it's locked in a safe.
