I'm not going to get into it about pitts being great dogs because I feel it falls on deaf ears. However I will advise you not to get a pitt bull. One if you dont like them because you are scared you will not be a stable and good owner for one. Dogs feed off their owners emotions...if you are always giving off a scared feeling the pitt will never accept you as the pack leader. Also you say both dogs will have to be inside. does your husband plan on walking and exercising the pitt? They need a lot of that sort of thing to stay happy and calm submissive. They are very hard to own as a mostly inside dog.
