Well I have to say that I think it is all down to the indiviual dog.
I have owned a ped labrador who was a lovely dog but sadly died...she had alot of health problems.
She was a very smart dog very easy to train, great temp and an all round cracking dog we miss her alot!
I now own an 14 month old american bulldog x staff he is very very smart sometimes to smart, he is heathly, has a1 temp and learns very quickly...he is a superb dog in every way...he is how ever stubborn.
But both of his parents breeds american bulldogs and staffys can be very stubborn. He has no tendacies to run off or roam....and was totally toilet trainned at 5 months old....he is great with kids, other dogs and people....and is an all star dog!
So really I think its totally down to the indiviual dog...ped or cross any of them 'CAN BE' healthy... smart... easy to train or could be unhealty...dopey...and a nightmare to train etc!
