PEDIE WAS AN AMERICAN BULLDOG.

I have a bio on the show and he was an American Bulldog and there were two of them.

He was the same breed as CHAMP on Homeward Bound.
Petey was a pitbull.

Sadly, he was poisoned. The myth/legend was that there was someone who was jealous of Petey - and what a smart dog he was - not to mention the money he earned doing the Little Rascals.

Other famous pitbulls were/are

Popsicle - left to die in a freezer by thugs - he is the country's most successful drug dog.

Weela - KenLRation's dog of the year rescued over 30 people from a dangerous flood.

Dakota - one of the country's most honored search and rescue dogs.

Sgt. Stubby - the country's most decorated war dog (WWI)

Pitbulls get a really bum rap - but they're really great dogs. Smart, easily trained, loyal and well, just great dogs.

The sad thing is that so many people are afraid of Pitbulls - because many owners just want something that looks tough. Too many times the dog is blamed for human error.

So, parents, teach your children to be gentle with dogs - all dogs. Watch them when they're around dogs so that the child doesn't torment the dog into reaction (remember, dogs don't hands and can't push a toddler away)

And Owners of all dogs. Leashes are meant to be used. Use them. And dogs are pack animals. Don't leave Fido out in the back yard where he'll go crazy. Think of being in solitary confinement. What an awful sentence!

and spay and neuter! there are too many puppies out there.

"Lucenay's Peter" was a UKC-registered American Pit Bull Terrier, who was also one of the first Pit Bulls to be registered with the AKC as a Staffordshire Terrier(the breed name was changed to avoid confusion with the already-recognized Bull Terrier, and later "American" was added to avoid more confusion with the English Staffordshire Bull Terrier). Actually, there were more than one Pete, all decendants of the original dog. He was most definately an American Pit Bull, NOT an American Bulldog, although later in the modern movie version, an American Bulldog was used to play that part. You can read about Pete AND view his UKC pedigree on the site below, proving that he was most certainly a Pit Bull.

  1. He was a Pitbull. I have one that looks just like him. Pitbulls are really great with kids, they are very tolerant.
