Please correct me if I'm wrong (and I know 'you' will).
I heard once that certain breeds of dog were specifically bred for hunting/fighting. They'd be trained by biting through flavoured sacks with (ugh) live kittens in them to get them used to (and savouring) the taste of blood.
Could 'violent' training through thousands of generations have created a dog more likely to 'turn'? I'd assume that might be true, given that we seem to have domesticated dogs, instilling some non-'wild' elements into their character.
Are pitbulls a little wild? Generational memory?
