When I was a kid, I used to get chased around by my neighbours nasty little miniature pinscher whenever I rode past his house. That was a mean little dog, jumping and snapping at my legs. But as an adult, I realize that he weighs about 5 lbs. I could literally pick him up, and throw him into a large body of water now. So while I agree that little dogs are the devil, the size and strength of a large breed makes a big difference.

I read some insteresting stats yesterday on dog attacks. The top was the Pit Bull, but there were a number of attacks by shepherds and border collies in there.

It's in here. I can't link to scribd. Don't know how.....

Numbers reveal Vancouver dog attacks were led by "bully breed" pit bulls | iNews880


There's one Cane Corso attack in there. That's a big dog!!



The attack was against another animal though. I like to think that it swallowed a min pin whole.
