Pets / The Common Features Of All Dog Breeds Or Types by MarveyJustin1(m): 5:51pm On Jul 13, 2023
All Dogs are genetically very similar, Natural Selection and Selective Breeding have reinforced certain characteristics in certain populations of Dogs, giving rise to Dog Types and Dog Breeds. The terms Dog Breed and Dog Type are sometimes used interchangeably, but they have different meanings.

Dog Types - These are broad categories based on function, genetics, or characteristics.

Dog Breeds - These are groups of animals that possess a set of inherited characteristics that distinguishes them from other animals within the same Species. Modern Dog Breeds are Non-Scientific Classifications of Dogs kept by modern kennel clubs. Pure bred Dogs of one breed are genetically distinguishable from Pure bred Dogs of other Breeds, but the means by which kennel clubs classify Dogs is unsystematic

Pets / Why Do You Think It Is Important To Ban The Pitbull Dog Breed In Nigeria? by MarveyJustin1(m): 4:16pm On Jul 13, 2023
The history of the Pit Bull can be traced back to the early 1800’s in the United Kingdom. Pit Bulls were originally bred from Old English Bulldogs (these dogs are similar in appearance to today’s American Bulldog) who gained their popularity on the British Isles in a cruel blood sport known as “bull baiting”. One to two Bulldogs were set to harass a bull for hours until the animal collapsed from fatigue, injuries or both. These matches were held for the entertainment of the struggling classes; a source of relief from the tedium of hardship.
However, in 1835 the British Parliament enacted the Cruelty to Animals Act 1835, which prohibited the baiting of some animals such as the bull and bear. Once bull and bear baiting was outlawed, the public turned their attention to “ratting”. This practice pitted dogs against rats in which they were timed to see whose dog would kill the most rats in the least amount of time. The “pit” in Pit Bull comes from ratting as the rats were placed into a pit so that they could not escape. Ultimately, the public turned their eyes upon dog fighting as it was more easily hidden from view and thus the law. Ratting and dogfighting both required more agility and speed on the part of the dog, so Bulldogs were crossed with Terriers “Bull and Terriers”, more commonly known as the first Pit Bull Terrier.
