All breeds, big & small, "bully" breeds & "family" dogs can & will kill people.
One suprising conclusion of several studies is the fact that many varieties of dogs have been involved in a fatal human attack for one reason or another.
Dog deaths in a 20-year period:
- Pit Bull & Pit Bull mix at 66 human deaths.
- Rottweiler and Rottweiler mix was responsibe for 39 human death
- German Shepherd dog & mix were responsible for 17 human deaths
- Husky type dog was responsible for 15 human deaths
- Malamute responsible for 12 human deaths
- Chow Chow was responsible for 8 deaths
- Doberman was responsible for 9 human deaths
- Saint Bernard was responsible for 7 human deaths
- Great Dane was also responsible for 7 deaths
- Akita killed 4 people
- Bulldog, 2
- Mastiff, 2
- Boxer, 2
- Believe it or not the Labrador Retriever was responsible for 1 death while Lab mixes were responsible for 4 deaths
The following dogs were responsible for killing one human each during these 20 years: The Bullmastiff, Cheasapeake Bay Retriever, West Highland Terrier, Japanese Hunting Dog, Newfoundland, Coonhound, Sheepdog, Rhodesian Ridgeback & cocker Spaniel.
