Just know that having a Pit Bull with the Poodle will most likely result in you having to "Crate and Rotate" or the possibility of the poodle getting hurt is very strong.The chances of this actually increase with a well bred APBT.If keeping the dogs completely separate for their entire lives and the constant precautions and extra vigilance required to keep everyone safe sound like more than you can/will be able to handle,I would hold off on the idea of a bulldog.

What do you want in a dog? An active pet to exercise or compete with? Just a lap dog to cuddle? Short or long hair? How large is your living space?How many hours a day will the dog be left alone?There are many things to consider before settling on a breed then you still have to do your research on that particular breed before making a final decision.If I were you I would start by making a list of what you do/don't want and what you are capable of caring for(veterinary care/food is often cheaper for a small dog)And some breeds require less exercise than others.
