Animal Services | Marion County, FL
I looked at the 68 dogs up for adoption at the Marion County Animal Services website and pretty much all but a few are "pit bull" or mixes that look like pit bulls.
Judge each dog by its own characteristics-- breed, temperament, personality, wounds, etc.
When we went looking for a pet in November of 2006 up in Marion County then too it was mostly "pit bull" mixes. My parents did not want anything that looked like a "pit bull".
We finally got a pet in late 2006 via the Sumter County Animal Services after many e-mails exchanged. It was a gentle chihuahua/terrier who loved to dig up moles, voles and gophers.
