A hairless crested is a perfect size for apartments.... or a beagle?

    Here Kitty Kitty, that is just not true of all pitbulls. And she had one before, so knows they need a firm hand when a puppy, and proper training. Not every one will grow large, in fact, most are what I would count as medium at best. They are stocky and muscular, that's true.

    Yeah, I was pretty much going to say what Karen just said.

    I had a Pit Mix, her name was Roxy. She was a handful, she probably could have used a lot more training than what she had, lol.

    It depends on how a Pit is raised to how they're going to grow up. If one is rescued from an early age and trained to be a good, loving dog, then there shouldn't be any problems .

    I would go to my local shelter and bring home one of those sweethearts who has been lost or abandoned and needs love and a forever home.

    You can have Mikey

    I think you should just go to the shelter, when the time comes of course and see what you find rather then a specific breed. Honestly, everytime I try and get a specific breed I have wound up with something completely different. This time, I was looking into greyhound, jack russel terrier, fox terrier, or a beagle, although we did get kind of close with this one lol

    Good luck in whatever you choose, Bri!
