When I got home owners insurance for my new place, They asked if I own a dog.
I replied yes, a Yorkie, he is a ferocious guard dog.
I also asked if i would get a discount if I had an actual big guards dog. I was surprised to learn that if you owned a Pitbull, Rotty, German Shepard, Doberman that they would not continue with insurance, or at least pay a MUCH higher premium.
I personally dont discriminate against any dogs, some of the sweetest dogs I know are pitbulls, and a super sweet rotty. yet I have met a owner with a Lab cross that wanted to attack anything it saw.
Unfortunately the kind of people who generally want a pitbull or similar, are stereotypically not great people or owners of dogs, and shouldn't own a hamster let alone a very powerful animal.
