What I am trying to say is this. If you were to get them, get them as very young puppies, at the same time, and train immediately. A properly trained dog will listen to you above all else, and a happy well adjusted animal isn't going to haul off and kill someone. I would be more concerned about how your son would re-act. Has he been around animals and pets before? If not, I would wait until he was a few years older. A yorkie or a pit wouldn't be good around a child who was not used to animals.

im more scared of chis than anything else. Evrey time i see one its barking, growling or bitting and nipping some1. id rather have a pitt than a chihuahua lol
