not al pits are fighters thats just if they are treated like that from babies.if you teach him 2 get along wit the other dogfrom a puppy he will lear to be good.the humane society doesnt sell fighting dogs and tells you if the dog is good wit other dogs.pet store ones are put in cages wit other dogs so they are use to it

I think I would be more worried about the Pit Bull puppy.

Are you going to be able to watch over you dogs and make sure that they will adapt together?

Yeah. I'd be more worried about the puppy (short-term).

My pitt grew up with 2 chihuahuas. She was sweeter and more innocent than they were if anything. The myths about Pitts being more aggressive than any other breeds is false but I do want to point out that they are extremely strong/powerful. They really are just like any other type of dogs but they are more powerful (strength wise) and are naturally determined. This is why people TRAIN them to fight. Believe it or not, they are considered very good family dogs! They LOVE kids and the are resistant to pain. Ex. I can use a pinch-choker on my pitt and it wouldn't bother her if I pull but it would really bother my English Bulldog who is just as big as she is. If you don't trust me, do some research.

Hope I helped.

The puppy will rely on you to keep him safe, until he can take care of himself with the bigger dogs...

One of the best ways in the world to introduce new dogs into a pack, to to walk them all together...or if that'd be too unmanagable, then take the pup, and one of the other dogs (the most dominate one first)...then the other...The migratory walk sets the seed for them all being in the same pack...and of course, you're there to make sure it all goes well.
