Raising a pitbull

[db west]

slap it around from the jump. If you dont keep it in line he will start taking advantage of you from the jump. Not with a rolled up newspaper either if you hitit reasonably with your hand you wont hurt the dog.

I get his at work

Socialization is probably the most important thing. Having the puppy know that he can trust other dogs and other people when he's young will ensure himthat he does not need to be scared of his environment, and that there is no need for aggression. I'd start with socialization first then some obediencetraining. Take it to the vet if you haven't done so already. Also, I highly suggest crate training your dog. It will do wonders for its potty training.

BE the Pack Leader

Make him respect you as soon as possible

Nothing like a dog tearing up the house and trying to dominate you

They are tricky though. And can get spoiled easily so watch out for that. If you spoil a pit it'll never be the same. If it's mad at youit'll chew on your stuff and pee on it etc. no joke
