The ones that have bitten and the ones that have not. Yes, American Pit bull Terrier s are sensationalized in the media. There is a reason tho that the Public Health Agency of Canada does not keep track by Breed because 80% of the time they can not determine the breed. The point is all types of dogs attack children. It sucks but that's the reality of it bigger dogs view them as prey. If the banned the breed from City's then fine.I would like them to ban some of the other ones that are aggressive as well. Rottweilers Huskeys and German Shepherds. Those are the next ones on the list according to dogbites.org. that frequently attack or kill. That's the thing tho if a Bull type dog bites you even slightly People are more inclined to report it.

I personally don't like Little dogs like Lhasa Apsos . I had one almost completely sever my Achilles tendon.
I walked by this damn dog almost everyday when his owner would walk him. Out of the blue as I passed them it just turned around and grabbed ahold . I went down pretty quick. All the owner got was a fine and the dog on the dangerous list.

Last month A German Shepherd got out of a yard and attacked me on my bike. Just lunged grabbed my forearm and tossed me down . It shook my arm a bit while the owner came and got him. Left some wicked teeth holes. It looks like that dog is going to me euthanized tho. I was not the first person it attacked. It was already on the Bite list and the owner was currently in a civil suit with his neighbor over a biting incident. This dog tho, I did feel bad for because it was only 2 years old and was a rescue dog . He just had some crappy owners before.

Bottom line is Any kind of dog at anytime could snap. If your going to ban one aggressive breed you have to get the other ones like German shepeards.
