A four year old child was recently mauled in a unprovoked attack from an American Bulldog. He needed 200 stitches in his face
Yeah so? Happens all the time with chiwowas and cocker spaniels. Sad situation but accidents happen. Where is the article? American bulldogs score in the high 90's on temperments tests. Higher than labs.
Here is a qoute from some of my research
"The most horrifying example of the lack of breed predictability is the October 2000 death of a 6-week-old baby, which was killed by her family's Pomeranian dog. The average weight of a Pomeranian is about 4 pounds, and they are not thought of as a dangerous breed. Note, however, that they were bred to be watchdogs! The baby's uncle left the infant and the dog on a bed while the uncle prepared her bottle in the kitchen. Upon his return, the dog was mauling the baby, who died shortly afterwards.

In Canine homicides and the dog bite epidemic: do not confuse them, it has been pointed out that the
dog bite epidemic as a whole involves all dogs "
