Unlike most other big breeds, they’ve got short coats so they won’t shed like many others. The short coat is also ideal for hot climates like the one I live in. They’re extremely affordable.
Idk, those are just off the top of my head..
The vast majority of pit bulls live and die without mauling 3 year olds so that’s not something I’d consider too much.

While I disagree on reasons to own one, I can respect you actually giving reasons beyond "just because". You are also correct that the vast majority do not maul 3 year old's. I ask, do you have children? Not trying to be funny, but I am curious if you do. If so, do you have a pit bull at home? If you don't have children, would you be perfectly comfortable with your young children around one?
