"ban the behavior not the breed" is a motto that is so true. Just because the media makes a breed out to be "dangerous" doesn't mean that breed actually is dangerous...it means the dog was trained/raised to be vicious or was abused or constantly put in situations that make lashing out it's "do whatever to stay alive" response. here in america pit bulls are the current "evil" dog. Pit bulls are some of the most loyal, friendly sweet natured dogs I have ever met. A friend of mine rescued a Pit from a fighting ring and he is the sweetest dog ever, gives the best sloppy kisses! And even though he was trained to fight, the resucers trained it out of him and returned him to a hppy natural state.
Over the years one brand of dog or another has been demonized...english bulldogs were demonized, so were german shepards, doberman pinchers, chow chows etc...and none of these dogs are dangerous from birth. The folly of man made A DOG belonging to a breed dangerous. And to blame an entire breed is ignorant (referring to society in general here, not the OP or anyone else).
I have been bitten/chased by a chiuaha, a mini poodle, and a beagle, and never by so-called danerous dogs.
