I am almost certain this puppy is NOT human aggressive. I need bully dog owners to help with this and guide these people. Because the puppy is part 'pit' and was possibly mistreated by previous owners they are becoming convinced she is human aggressive. I do not believe this is the problem!
This questioner needs some help. I have done my best. ANY 'hard' breed owners out there please answer: http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index?鈥?/a>

Doesn't seem to be true aggression to me either, but it's always a tough call "diagnosing" behaviors over the internet. I know this happens SO often when a new owner is just not used to the style of play that bully breeds have -- a rambunctious 6-month-old pup with NO prior training can be very frightening to someone who isn't familiar with the breed -- so it's more likely that this person is just seeing it the wrong way. However it's not *impossible* for a puppy like this to be truly aggressive... it's just not very common. And the fact that the questioner said that two knowledgeable people -- a pit-loving lawyer and a canine behaviorist -- have both said that this puppy is truly aggressive, is a little disturbing. Of course, WE don't know if that's even true, or if so, how much "knowledge" those people really have....
All things considered... if the owner is not willing to hire another behaviorist for a second (even third) opinion and this dog's LIFE is literally depending on the advice of people over the internet, then I say the owner needs to take a video of this dog "in action" and show the world what he believes to be an act of true aggression. There's no other way that we can give sound advice without actually seeing it for ourselves.
