Dupree recently sat down with ESPN's Jeremy Fowler and discussed his love for pit-bulls, he currently lives with 6 of his dogs while he has 7 other dogs that he includes in his family that he found new homes for. Dupree has been around the pit-bull breed since he was six years old and knows that there is a certain stigma that surrounds pit bulls. "People think of pit bulls, they think they should be scared, my dogs get along with kids. They are like companion dogs; you can lay with them. I keep my nieces and nephews around my dogs all the time. They play rough with me, but when they see the kids, they get timid." Dupree wants to get a sack for each one of his 13 dogs this season, "It's just for the love, really".
