Multiple dogs is very time consuming and costly. When those dogs happen to be pit bulls there are a whole other set of issues.

To add to this, owning multiple dogs can be a real pain in the ass.

More work, more supervision, more room for error, more money spent, more keeping on everyone in the household's ass about following specific instructions about the dogs, more time spent interacting and working with each dog individually when you could be doing other things. And you definitely want to have a decent chunk of cash squirreled away in case there's a fight, or someone decides to eat something inedible.

Is it rewarding? Yes. But it can also be insanely stressful some days.

I have 5 dogs in my care right now. My dogs (4 y/o female pit bull, 4 y/o female Saint Bernard, 3 y/o male Rottweiler, and a 2 ish Brussels Griffon. And one 6 y/o Staffy mix female foster dog) all get along well. Except for the foster dog, who has always been pretty DA, and can never be around my other dogs.
