It's better for you to have one, than him going after Lily or your cats and you cannot get them apart and he can do more damage to your cats and Lily than they can since they are little compared to him.

The breaksticks are only to be used with pit bulls though, not other breeds. No dog parks or dog daycares for him either! I really hope it works out, but you need to sit down with your mom and really think about it before making such a huge commitment.

You also need to make sure your house insurance will cover a pit bull.

Yeah, I've thought about that. We're borrowing his previous family's crate for now and keeping them separated until we get our own crate. Doing a crate and rotate situation, or something very similar to that without the crates for the cats.

I'm hoping that if he ever has issues with Lily I'll be able to move out by that time where he is an only dog, but if not we can handle separation.

I've already informed my mom to keep them separated and all of the other important things, I'll have to teach her about a breakstick too.

Thanks for all the info, I'll be sure to read everything
