How Smart Are Pit Bull Terrier Dogs?

People say a lot of things about Pit Bulls, but you never hear
them talk much about the intelligence of this particular breed.
Fact is you'll never hear anything about the intelligence of
this animal, unless you are in the company of Pit bull owners.
Anyone who has owned one of these fascinating dogs will tell you
straight up that the Pit bull is a very smart dog indeed.
Pit Bulls are fairly quick to learn, but they also have a
certain stubborn streak which is

a direct result of their
intelligence. These dogs have a definite will of their own, and
they like to get their way, but then again most humans do as
well!
This stubborn behavior which shows from time to time tends to
make the Pit Bull breed slightly harder to train than other
breeds. Some people mistake the dog's independent will as the
dog not being trainable, but nothing could be further from the
truth! These highly intelligent dogs can be

The problems in training arise from owners who have no knowledge
about the Pit Bull breed. As with any breed, prospective owners
should always invest a little of their time into getting to know
the particular quirks that all dog breeds have. Owners who get a
Pit Bull then whine about the training of them simply did not do
their homework. That's not the dog's fault, now is it?
As the owner of a Pit Bull, you should understand that

his
stubbornness comes from his intelligence, and that you shouldn't
take it personally. Just because he doesn't want to do what you
want him to do at a specific time doesn't mean he doesn't love
you. If you can simply treat it for what it truly is,
stubbornness, then you'll both make out just fine.
Always meet their hard headed ways with patience and
understanding. Certainly don't give up on their training, just
be a little more stubborn than they

are!
You may want to consider using a type of training called play
training. This type of training appeals to Pit Bulls because
they absolutely love to play. When a training task is presented
as a fun game, the task will appeal to the dog's inner desire
for play. With this technique, you can outwit the stubbornness
you may have encountered with any other type of training.
