Decca, I have to take exception to something you said. Pit Bull Terriers do NOT have the ability to "lock" their jaws. They simply have a powerful musculature that applies anywhere from 1000 to 2000 lbs of force in a bite. They do not WANT to let go, they are not "locked" closed and CAN'T!
I have one and he's a big sweetie unless there's a stranger around. He's VERY protective and will defend his territory and loved ones to the death. I personally witnessed him try to tear through a screen door to attack a fully-grown black bear which was on my porch a few years ago. He had no idea what the thing was, only that it was on HIS porch and he wanted it gone! Me, I was reaching for the shotgun behind the sofa.
And that dog in the picture looks like a Staffordshire Terrier to me.
