Why would a dog park be a bad idea if your dog is socialized well and not with aggressive dogs? I don't believe that a dog park is bad news for every bull it depends on the dog if you raise the dog CORRECTLY and have trust in him/her and they are obedient there should be no problem with me taking my dog to a dog park. I would never put him in a situation when he is in a park with alot of dogs but with 1 or 2 others I believe he will be fine as long as you keep a close eye on them as he has proven to me.........

"It's all in how you raise them" huh? Sheesh....have you read anything much around here? Please don't spout off advice like this....You should NEVER trust a bully breed dog not to fight, even if they've "proven" to you otherwise, the potential is definitely there. and Catchrcall is absolutely right, even if your dog doesn't START a fight, it will end up being their "fault".

To the OP's actual question, it is absolutely possible to have a multi pit home, lots of members on here have multiple dogs. I myself have two, who so far, get along just fine. You just have to go into the situation understanding that they may not always get along, and have a plan in place for dealing with that if the time comes. Nothing complicated at all if you crate train. Just don't leave them unsupervised, and get a good break stick. If they end up not getting along, be prepared to crate and rotate or something similar.
