This is a totally not true as Pit Bulls have the same general bone structure in their jaws as any other breed of dog. The misunderstanding comes in with the incredible determination that Pit Bulls inherently have. They do everything with an immense amount of determination including biting down on things, playing, running and of course, cuddling (dog walking nyc).
