80. It's more than just their strength, they are terriers and have been bred to kill that's their job.
Put a Border Collie on a playground full of kids and the dog will herd them without any training, that's what they were bred for. Put my hounds in a big empty space and they will chase anything that moves, including each other.

I've just seen too many people, including me, get complacent with their pits and tragedy ensues.

Otherwise, they are just the best dogs (if you have the energy), loving, acrobatic, clowns that are smart and unbelievably tenacious.
