From what i know, pitbulls are cross-breeded to be killers. They are fight-dogs.
For as long as there have been herd dogs out there, they usually came from a certain breed. I haven`t seen a pitbull or a boxer used for that. There are sledge dogs, the huskies etc. Again, no pitbulls Each breed has its characteristics. Do pitbulls have playfulness ? I missed on that, if so, i humbly appologise.
Fighting dogs are often pitbulls, but the breed itself is not an aggressive breed. What makes them awesome fight dogs is their extremely power necks, potentially the strongest neck of any dog. This allows them to bite down and rip flesh, even though their jaws don't have a lot of power, the sheer speed and power their necks can exhibit can cause even a weak bite to inflict serious harm.
edit: Pitbulls are not a very smart breed of dog, meaning they are very easy to train and they are very impressionable. If you treat them like shit, they will be mean dogs, but if you treat them nicely, they will be nice.
Smarter breeds of dogs like your huskies and malamutes are generally friendly towards humans regardless of how you treat them, but are extremely hard to train and can become violent if they become dominant. (they retain more wolf instinct than most breeds, especially malamutes.)
