same as any other dog-using positive methods. If you have little experience in training I suggest taking a few classes that involve both you and your dog.

The same way you would train any other dog. Terriers in general are very smart although usually a bit stubborn. Reinforcement is key. Your terrier may test you (like a teenager) to see how serious you are. Always be consistent in your methods and they will respond quickly. If you are unfamilar with training a dog, sign up for classes so you can learn a positive training method.

Sign up for some training classes that use positive reinforcement training methods. You train pits the same way you would train any other breed of dog.

Just remember that aggression breeds aggression. Because pits are very sensitive and are getting so much negative press these days i would consult a trainer who has worked with pits before to make sure all the training goes well. If you have never owned one before it can be easy to make mistakes. This way you won't have to worry if you're doing everything right and then you'll be able to take him/her out with you and show everyone what a wonderful breed they really are.

Well, if it's for dog fighting, you can go to hell!
But if as pet, I would recommend getting it fixed immediately. That will take some of the fight out of him. But you are fighting his nature and instinct which is to fight other dogs. Just keep him on a LEASH IN THE PARK! And keep him the F away from my dogs! Got it??

One thing is for sure. Love that dog. Make sure the dog know she/he is safe and loved.
