With 'No-kill' rescue organizations and county / city animal control agencies staying pretty much maxed out nowadays with an inordinately high percentage of pit-bull, pit-bull type breeds and mixes thereof, add in their overly optimistic, glorified 'sales-pitch' descriptions of individual dogs (often omitting/misrepresenting probable breed mixes, and sometimes even temperament, past history, etc., too) attempting to get them adopted, plus pit-bull lover groups singing their praises, not all that many are winding up with, "irresponsible ghetto thug", type owners anymore.
