I have raised Rottweilers, Blue and Red nosed Pits, and Bluetick Hounds primarily, but I also have alot of experience with many other breeds.
If you pick a small dog you have to remember to give them plenty of exercise or they will go nuts, a good medium sized dog is a Pit, but they get alot of negative attention. If you have the balls, patience and moxy I suggest a Rot, they have to be trained very very early and they are very stubborn and hard to teach but very worth the effort later on as they are very loving and very protective. Otherwise get a Chihuahua you can train them to use a litter box and don't require much attention other than a daily walk to two.
