Some quite shocking stats here - and would perhaps indicate that we should also expect more young children to be savaged by these breeds too unless something can be done about it.
"Excluding cross breeds, almost half of the aggressors (just under 46%) were bull breeds - bulldogs, mastiffs, bull terriers, pit bull types and Staffordshire bull terriers."
Maybe these breeds should all be muzzled in public at all times...
Poor guide dogs... - some are left so traumatised they are unable to work again with their owner!

Lets hope the new govmt decide to do something to start controlling the dangerous dog breeds out there!
Or at least taking the animals off the people who dont control their pets!

I have a staff, and she is lovely, she loves people/children and interaction, she can be funny with other dogs, so as a result whenever we go out she is always kept on the lead....I think issues like this are down to the owners themselves, not being responsible, not the actual dog itself, for example we were over a park once and a german shepherd came over to myself and the 2 children and my staff which was on her lead....anyway the german shepherd started circling us and being aggressive, the owner could see what was going on and didnt bat an eyelid, in the end my dog went for it, purely because she felt threatened, the other dog come off worse and the owner was clearly upset, but why didnt he call the dog away in the 1st place when he could see what it was doing....sorry but down to the owners!
I have always believed that dogs should be on a lead when out in public places, no matter how passive the dog 'seems' to be!................I have had GSDs for many years, they have always been well trained and obedient, but I would never let them run free in a public place!....... it's all about being responsible...................
