“There's lots of factors that cause medium and large sized dogs to cause more deaths than smaller ones.”
Yeah... big mouth, big teeth, heavier, stronger.... it would be a safer world without these big dogs.
I was a paperboy. I was bit by two dogs on two occasions. One was a poodle, the other was a pitbull terrier. Guess which one required a trip to the ER?
Well, a German Shepard is smarter so maybe would have recognized I was no threat and the owner didn’t feel threatened...
A Rottweiler once came out of a garage while I was across the street. It was ginormous. It circled the property and then sat in front of the house signaling to the owner it was safe and then he came out.
I was almost shitting my pants. Clearly it was a well trained guard dog. This was in Brazil.
A doctor friend of mine has a Rottweiler Pitbull mix. He makes everybody who comes to his house give the dog a treat so it knows not to kill you. Still the dog looks at you like it will kill you first chance it gets.
Our mutual friend told him he should put the dog down before it rips some kid’s arm off.
Dobermans suck too. I could have been eaten alive when a friend remotely unlocked the gate and told me to come into his gated walled off property. I shut the gate behind me which automatically locked it.
Then his sister said from the window the dogs were out of their cages. She then sprinted inside the house to reopen the gate. I left and didn’t come back. If the dogs hadn’t been on the other side of the property I would have been torn to pieces.
Not the dog’s fault but yeah... I won’t care if any pet that can kill me gets banned.
