The pit bull endures unfair assumptions more than any other canine breed. It has long been believed that pit bulls are vicious and naturally aggressive dogs.

As with any species, the dog’s environment and upbringing have a significant impact on its behavior. Many pit bulls reared as pets are sociable with both humans and other animals.

Jarad Derochet is the owner of MVP Kennels, which breeds American Bully canines. Despite their negative reputation, he is adamant that pit bulls make excellent companions; his Instagram feed demonstrates how happy and friendly pit bulls can be.

He is at ease allowing his dogs to interact with his small children due to his high level of confidence in them.

Jarad demonstrated that, contrary to the concerns of many pit bull opponents regarding their behavior around neonates, pit bulls enjoy cuddling with children.
