Id like to hear a solid arguement of why someone with an open mind looking for a dog should consider a pitbull versus other breeds. I understand that everyone looks for different traits in a dog based on factors such as family, kids, house and yard, types of activities, etc. But who would a pitbull be good for and why?

Id also like to ask any pitbull owners, what does a pitbull give you that another dog breed doesnt?
What does any dog give you than another doesn't? Dogs are dogs first, breeds second. Any dog can potentially do anything or any job, some obviously better than others depending on breed. The pit bull breeds are known for not being human aggressive. That along with those temperament tests I posted earlier (where the staffordshire scored a 93%), could be used to show that pit bulls will take a lot of abuse from children and family (people in their pack), assuming responsible owners and breeders.
