I don't wish ill will toward pits & pit mixes, but I would never own one & would never have one around children. I'm also not a personal fan of Akitas, Chows, Rottweilers, or Cane Torsos.
They're very powerful & strong dogs & have been bred, in the past, w/ different prey/attack/fight instincts. And I know each one, individually, could be a wonderful pet. But I've read too many stories of these type dogs being great - until they snapped & attacked.
On the other hand, I adore GSDs, but would probably never have one because I'm not a very good dog disciplinarian. I'm not stern or consistent enough.
Some day, I'll probably have a GSD for a grand dog because DD also loves them & really wants one. She wants a German Shepherd & a Corgi.
We have a Keeshond.
