I have been told by a breeder that the genetic predispositon of a pit is to be friendly to humans and unfriendly to other animals. When I run into pits (during the course of my job) who are free to roam, well-fed, well-cleaned, and obviously cared for, they are friendly. The ones who are chained to a tree when they are 3 months old and left there to slowly go more insane year by year are not. Neither are the ones whose owners take time out every day to poke at them with a broomstick in order to "teach them to be a good guard dog." Yeah.
Chows just aren't friendly, but at least they aren't crazy like Dalmatians.
