Finding reliable Pitbull dog articles online can feel overwhelming with so much conflicting information available. Many sources spread myths or outdated advice that could harm your dog’s wellbeing. We at DogingtonPost believe every Pitbull owner deserves access to accurate, expert-backed information. This guide will help you identify trustworthy sources and avoid misleading content that could impact your dog’s health and training. How Do You Spot Expert-Backed Pitbull Information? Professional credentials matter more than follower counts when you evaluate Pitbull content online. Veterinarians with board certifications from the American College of Veterinary Behaviorists carry significantly more weight than self-proclaimed dog experts on social media. The American Veterinary Medical Association maintains a directory of certified animal behaviorists who specialize in breed-specific issues. Check Professional Qualifications First Look for authors with Doctor of Veterinary Medicine degrees, Certified Applied Animal Behaviorist certifications, or memberships in professional organizations like the International Association of Animal Behavior Consultants. These credentials appear in author bios or bylines on reputable sites. Writers without formal education in animal behavior often lack the depth of knowledge needed to address complex Pitbull topics accurately. Scientific Evidence Separates Facts from Fiction Quality Pitbull articles reference peer-reviewed studies from journals like Applied Animal Behaviour Science or the Journal of Veterinary Behavior. The American Canine Temperament Test Society’s data shows Pitbulls score 87.6% on temperament tests, which provides concrete evidence that contradicts common misconceptions. Articles that cite research from universities like Cornell’s College of Veterinary Medicine or studies published in JAVMA demonstrate scientific rigor. Avoid content that makes claims without specific research or statistical data to support them. Author Experience Reveals True Expertise Writers with hands-on Pitbull experience bring practical insights that academic knowledge alone cannot provide. Certified dog trainers who have worked specifically with bully breeds for over five years offer valuable perspectives on common challenges. Professional dog behaviorists who have rehabilitated Pitbulls from shelters understand the breed’s specific needs better than general pet writers. Check if authors mention their years of experience, number of Pitbulls trained, or involvement with breed-specific rescue organizations. Real expertise shows through detailed knowledge of breed characteristics, common behavioral patterns, and effective methods that work specifically for Pitbull-type dogs. Once you identify credible sources, you need to know what specific topics indicate high-quality Pitbull content worth your time. What Makes Pitbull Content Worth Reading The best Pitbull articles address specific challenges that owners actually face, not generic dog advice. Look for content that explains how to manage resource protection in Pitbulls, which research shows can affect dogs due to various predisposing factors. Quality articles should detail positive reinforcement techniques specifically tested on bully breeds, including counter-conditioning methods for dog reactivity that many Pitbulls develop. Articles worth your time explain why traditional alpha-based methods fail with Pitbulls and provide alternative approaches like clicker methods that work better with their eager-to-please temperament. Health Information That Actually Helps Exceptional Pitbull health articles focus on breed-specific conditions like hip dysplasia, which affects American Pit Bull Terriers according to Orthopedic Foundation for Animals data. Look for nutrition content that addresses the higher protein requirements of muscular breeds (typically 25-30% protein for adult Pitbulls compared to 18% for average dogs). The most valuable health articles explain symptoms of zinc-responsive dermatosis, a skin condition common in Pitbulls, and provide feeding guidelines for prevention of bloat in deep-chested varieties. Skip generic dog health advice and seek content that mentions specific studies on Pitbull metabolism and exercise needs, including early warning signs of cancer that affect all breeds. Historical Context Shapes Modern Understanding Top-tier Pitbull articles explain how bull-and-terrier breeding in 18th century England created today’s breed characteristics, which helps owners understand their dog’s natural instincts. Quality content acknowledges that Pitbulls were originally farm dogs before dogfighting became popular, which explains their high work drive and human loyalty. The best historical articles reference specific breeding programs and explain how modern American Pit Bull Terriers differ from their fighting ancestors through selective breeding for temperament. This historical foundation helps readers understand why proper socialization matters more for Pitbulls than most breeds (as their genetic predisposition toward dog selectivity requires careful management from puppyhood). However, even well-written articles can mislead readers if they contain certain warning signs that indicate unreliable information. How Can You Spot Misleading Pitbull Content? Sensationalized headlines like “Pitbull Attacks Increase 300%” or “Dangerous Dogs You Should Never Own” signal unreliable content that prioritizes clicks over accuracy. These fear-based articles often ignore the American Veterinary Medical Association’s position that breed alone cannot predict individual dog behavior. Watch for emotional language like “vicious,” “killer breed,” or “naturally aggressive” without evidence from peer-reviewed studies. Articles that focus exclusively on attack statistics without mentioning the 87.4% of Pitbulls that pass temperament tests present incomplete information designed to generate fear rather than educate readers. Outdated Myths Still Plague Online Content Many articles still repeat the debunked claim that Pitbulls have locking jaws, despite veterinary anatomy studies that show their jaw structure matches other breeds. Content that promotes dominance-based methods reflects outdated 1970s wolf research that modern animal behaviorists have thoroughly discredited. Articles that suggest Pitbulls turn on their owners randomly ignore decades of research that shows dog aggression stems from identifiable triggers like resource protection, fear, or inadequate socialization. The most dangerous myth involves breed-specific legislation effectiveness, which studies from the Journal of the American Veterinary Medical Association prove ineffective at reducing dog bite incidents. Missing Professional Input Reveals Poor Research Articles without veterinary review or expert consultation often contain dangerous advice that could harm your dog. Content that lacks citations from organizations like the American College of Veterinary Behaviorists or International Association of Animal Behavior Consultants suggests the author skipped professional fact-checking. Writers who fail to mention specific studies, research institutions, or professional organizations typically rely on personal opinion rather than evidence-based information. The absence of expert quotes or professional perspectives indicates the article may contain unverified claims about behavioral advice that could prove harmful when applied to your Pitbull. Final Thoughts Reliable Pitbull dog articles require careful evaluation of author credentials, scientific backing, and practical experience. Veterinary professionals with board certifications and peer-reviewed research citations provide the most trustworthy information for your dog’s wellbeing. Quality content addresses breed-specific challenges like proper socialization techniques, health conditions common to Pitbulls, and evidence-based methods that work effectively with their temperament. Sensationalized headlines, outdated dominance methods, and articles that lack professional input can harm your dog. Well-researched information directly impacts your Pitbull’s health, behavior, and quality of life. Misinformation leads to ineffective methods, missed health issues, or dangerous approaches that worsen behavioral problems (especially in breeds with specific needs like Pitbulls). We at DogingtonPost provide comprehensive resources for dog lovers, including expert advice and practical care tips backed by veterinary professionals. Your knowledge through credible sources helps you make informed decisions that benefit your Pitbull’s physical and mental health throughout their life. Smart choices about information sources protect your dog from harmful advice and support their long-term wellbeing.

California's Black Gold Turning Into Sludge

On Sunday, CNN State Of The Union host Dana Bash repeatedly quizzed Senator Markwayne Mullin (R-Okla.) about a story first reported by The Washington Post, that back in September, the U.S. ordered a second strike on a boat in the Caribbean that was believed to be transporting drugs. The reported purpose was to kill the few survivors of the first strike, which some say would constitute a war crime. Mullin wasn't buying any of it.  Bash first brought the issue up to Democrat Senator Mark Kelly, currently under FBI investigation for his participation in the Democrat "illegal orders" video. She asked him about the report, and he said, that if the accusations are true, "it seems to" constitute a war crime. She then threw Kelly's answer at Mullin, a member of the Senate Armed Services Committee:   BASH: ..Sources tell CNN that, in the first strike in September, one missile disabled the ship and killed many of the crew members, but when some survived that first strike, the military launched a second strike to kill anyone who was left. And these individuals were apparently unarmed, already injured from the original attack. Are you comfortable with that? MULLIN: Well, I don't know if I believe that at all, because we're doing alleged sources. Nothing has been verified by this. We do know that a survivor that did survive in later attacks was picked up by the United States Coast Guard or Navy, I'm not for sure, and was sent back to his country. You guys reported on that. So I doubt very seriously that took place...It's alleged. Nothing's been proven at all about this. No one's come out and said it was accurate. It's just somebody by alleged source that anybody can name or make up that this supposedly took place. Bash then  tried to insinuate that planned committee hearings that have been scheduled in the House and Senate on this and other issues was somehow proof of evidence.  BASH: The Republican chairman of your committee, Armed Services, in the Senate and the Republican Chair of the House Armed Services Committee have both taken enough, seen enough credence in this that they say that they are investigating in a bipartisan way.. They're promising vigorous oversight, to be precise... MULLIN: They didn't specifically name this issue. They said of the whole operation that's going on in international waters against the, these terrorist organizations trying to flood our streets...They didn't specifically name this particular situation.  None of these answers deterred Bash. BASH: ..If they do find that the Defense Secretary gave an order to eliminate people who were already injured on a boat, which a lot of legal experts say is illegal, Mark Kelly was just here and he said it's potentially a war crime. Should Pete Hegseth face consequences? MULLIN: Listen, you're once again making assumptions that's not even kind of accurate, I don't believe. All we're doing is talking about an assumption. This isn't been proven... Mark Kelly is saying the most ridiculous things I have ever heard right now...He's encouraging men and women uniform to question the orders of superior officers. He just got done saying that the President was racist because he doesn't like brown people. Yet I sit in front of you as a Cherokee Indian, and I'm very close friends with the President. He's losing credibility every single day. Your talking about once again is alleged over an anonymous source, which the media is really good about, always trying to name some anonymous source, but then they make a big deal about it as though this is true...I don't believe this at all...and I don't know why we are spending so much time on this... I think I do. Dana Bash, like much of the liberal media, presented the "drug boat" accusations as fact. When shot down by the "fact" that no one has gone on the record to make these accusations, she switched to scheduled congressional hearings, non-specific to this incident, to try to make her point. Senator Mullin spoke the truth, but it really didn't distract her from her desired narrative, making Trump and Hegseth look like war criminals. 

White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt closed out Monday’s press briefing by weighing in on-camera on her team’s decision to implement a media bias page on the White House website as well as lambaste The New York Times for their cartoonish, 2,100-plus-word November 25 piece suggesting President Trump is in both cognitive and physical decline. Conservative talk radio host John Fredericks queued this all up, asking Leavitt to explain “your objective with” the page on the White House website dedicated to “Media Offender of the Week” that, as of this blog’s publication, has 31 such entries featuring everyone from broadcast news (ABC, CBS, NBC) to newspapers like The New York Times to online-only sites (Axios) to even local news (KTLA). Leavitt said she was “glad you noticed, much to the dismay of some of your colleagues in the room” and the aim will be to fulfill their “promise on day one to hold the media accountable, because unfortunately, and we deal with this all day, every day around here, there are so many fake stories that are unfortunately written” based on anonymous sources. #NEW @PressSec @KarolineLeavitt expands on the decision by the White House to launch a "media offender of the week," which will serve as a list of biased news outlets...@JFRadioShow: “The White House today launched a new fake news portal, which I found interesting. What is your… pic.twitter.com/d6t35D0vza — Curtis Houck (@CurtisHouck) December 1, 2025   “We appreciate the journalists, some of those who are in this room, who do reach out for comment, who try to get things right...[B]ut overwhelmingly, the fake news that we see pumped out of this building on a day to day basis. It’s — it’s honestly overwhelming to keep up with it all and to constantly have to defend against these fake news and these attacks,” she added. This went straight into her torching of The Times for a “deeply unfortunate” article by Katie Rogers, who happened to write two such articles during the Biden presidency laughably declaring him fit for office: At one point, an exasperated Leavitt declared “are you kidding me” in reference to claims Trump was slipping (and thus linking him to Biden’s decline): MIC DROP: @PressSec @KarolineLeavitt closed the White House Press Briefing by TORCHING the liberal media for suggesting President Trump is in cognitive and physical decline... “And I will point out one fake news story over the weekend before I let you all go from The New York… pic.twitter.com/woxlWdISGV — Curtis Houck (@CurtisHouck) December 1, 2025   Rewinding to the start of the briefing, the great Isabelle Brown of The Daily Wire was in the new media seat and asked about cracking down on legal immigration in light of Wednesday’s deadly ambush of two National Guard troops in Washington D.C. NEW: @realDailyWire’s @theisabelb is today’s “new media seat” recipient at the White House press briefing!

NBC’s Gabe Gutierrez kicked those questions off immediately following Brown: NBC’s @GabeGutierrez: “Regarding Venezuela, the President said yesterday that Secretary Hegseth had denied that that second strike — that reported second strike on an alleged drug boat on September 2 — the secretary said to the president that that didn't happen. But to clarify, I… pic.twitter.com/kdlozWYSg4 — Curtis Houck (@CurtisHouck) December 1, 2025   Following a question about President Trump’s pardon of a former Honduran president and convicted drug trafficker, Gutierrez had back up from reporters such as CBS’s Weijia Jiang, AFP’s Danny Kemp, PBS News Hour’s Liz Landers (the girlfriend of Jim Acosta, who said really journalists should stop going to the White House), and ABC’s Rachel Scott to name a few. But another person who remained tight on Gutierrez’s trail about the drugboat strikes was Fox’s Jacqui Heinrich, showing those who care to pay attention Fox News is not there to carry water for the administration (pun intended): JACQUI TIME: “Following up on Gabe's question, you said that the follow up strike was lawful. What law is it that allows no survivors?”@PressSec @KarolineLeavitt: “The struck — the strike conducted on September 2 was conducted in self-defense to protect Americans and vital… pic.twitter.com/7J1qIFWRJh — Curtis Houck (@CurtisHouck) December 1, 2025   To see the relevant transcript from the December 1 briefing, click here.

As the legacy media has continued to raise concerns over President Trump's health, press secretary Karoline Leavitt dispelled those rumors during a press briefing. Physician to the president Captain Sean Barbabella, D.O., delivered the results of President Trump's advanced imaging tests in a memorandum.'This level of detailed assessment is standard for an executive physical at President Trump's age and confirms that he remains in excellent health.'On Monday during a press briefing, Leavitt read the results of Trump's MRI scan, which was part of a routine physical examination conducted in October. The White House posted the summary of the report on X in fulfillment of Trump's promise to make the results public, as Leavitt noted during the press briefing.RELATED: Elton John reveals what would make Trump 'one of the greatest presidents in history' Photo by Chip Somodevilla/Getty ImagesThe report began by noting that these advanced imaging tests were conducted "because men in his age group benefit from a thorough evaluation of cardiovascular and abdominal health." The tests were characterized as merely "preventative" in nature.According to the report, Trump's cardiovascular and abdominal imaging were "perfectly normal." In summary, the report concludes, "This level of detailed assessment is standard for an executive physical at President Trump's age and confirms that he remains in excellent overall health."On Sunday night, a reporter asked Trump which part of the body the MRI examined. "It wasn't on the brain because I took a cognitive test and aced it. Which you would be incapable of doing," Trump said, pointing at the reporter who asked the question. "And you too," he added, pointing at another reporter near him.The media has consistently raised questions over President Trump's health since his first term, but he has just as consistently shown no sign of slowing down.
