Our neighbors had a pitbull they never took care of her. She never had socialization with anyone except only by my son and I through the fence. We would talk to her and she would lick our hand. They even had her tied up for 3 days in the bad weather. Anyway I went over to ask if it was ok if my son could at least play with her once in a while. They said we could open the fence so she can come back and fourth. So we did that and she was happy to have someone pay attention to her we even kept her in our garage in the bad weather. Then finally the weather begin to get better so we close the fence back up. But she always found a way to our back yard. Finally we asked if we could have her since they never payed any attention to her. Now that we have her and its been over a week she seems to be showing some aggressive signs to my son and I and she won't lesson to us. She jumps on my son's face with her teeth open and I was petting her the other day and she snapped at me. She won't budge out of the door way and won't lesson to our commands. It's starting to get us nervous. She has never been aggressive to us like that before. She has become very dominate with us. We have never had a pitbull before so it's our first time. We live with my elderly mom and she once jumped on my mom with her long claws. She just licked my moms face but don't want to take that chance now that she is acting up. Can someone give me some advice I would greatly appreciate it...Thank you!

She has not been spayed yet. We took her to get all her shots.
