The most dangerous dogs are those that are not properly cared for, trained, socialized, housed, and fed. Breed makes little difference.

Another answer

The most dangerous dog to other people that are not in its direct family is the Fila Brasileiro. They were and still are raised to love and adore the owners and family but to hate and attack everyone else.

I would have to say the pitbull because they can do the most damage I know they are less aggressive then little dogs but if they bite you your pretty much screwed

Another answer

Simply put, there are many many breeds that have a powerful bite and many breeds bread to be guard dogs or attack dogs. But the basis of a dog's demeanor is not established by it's history but rather it's up-bringing. If a dog is raised undisciplined and untrained or even abused and not properly socialized with other dogs and people it will obviously be an aggressive and dangerous dog. But ANY breed can be properly trained and socialized to be loving and nurturing.

Also to say the pit bull has the strongest bite is plain ignorant. A bite force is based on power of the jaws. LOGIC and COMMON SENSE will point out that the bigger the head, the stronger the jaw, the stronger the bite. But also to point out, each jaw structure was designed for a purpose. The German Shepard has a Scissor bite, meant to cut easily through meat. The Pit Bull's jaw was designed to act as a vice and hold on tightly to large bulls while the butcher would kill the cow for meat. Furthermore, there is no possible way to fully determine the strongest and most destructive bite simply because you can't tell a dog to bite as hard as it can. A dog will bite however it chooses to bite.

So to answer this question, possibly the most dangerous dog would be the Striped Hyena. A Hyena is the most dangerous because it has the strongest bite recorded, a bite intended to break through the bones of an elephant. Also they are the most dangerous because they hunt in coordinated packs.

Modern dogs living in society are aggressive due to poor upbringing. Hyenas are purely wild and only have wild upbringing where if they don't kill, they will be killed. Unlike wolves, the hyena will organize an attack from the perfect angle to drive their prey into a corner where they all will kill it. Wolves, though efficient, allow their prey an opening by spreading out.

I am a wild-life researcher for the San Diego Wild Animal Park in Escondido, CA. If anyone wants to question my credibility, come pay me a visit and I'll show you exactly what I work with on a day-to-day basis.

It is impossible to know the likelihood that any dog of a particular breed will attack, because it is not possible to know the number of dogs of a particular breed that there are. If you don't know the total population of a breed, you can not calculate the percentage of those dogs that have attacked. Existing dog bite statistics are highly misleading, because they do not take into account the popularity of a breed. If a breed is more popular, it will likely make up a larger percentage of total dog bites. But that does not say anything for that particular breed's likelihood to bite.

well, the beding a horse would like to give birth on would be a warm blanket or somthing that makes them cozy and warm!
What I use is paper bedding (shredded newspaper) covered with grass hay.

Paper bedding is very absorbent, once it is wet it sticks together for easy removal and replacement and prevents rubber mats from becoming slick.

I use grass hay over the top because it is not a byproduct of another growth process (like straw) so the producer has made an effort to insure that it is clean, mold and dust free and has the added advantages that the mare can eat it before and after foaling and I don't need extra storage space.
straw- i think that's correct for howrse to!

Preparing your mare for foaling, and making sure your new foal is comfortable is essencial in his health. I have written an article on when my mare foaled, and how we prepared & cared for her, and our new foal. This is the link: http://www.ehow.com/how_4526561_prepare-mare-foaling.html
I did some research, and heard many things. Some people said shavings because they are very absorbent, and not dusty like straw. However, I also heard "Use hay. Shavings can and do harbor psuedomonas, sticks to wet foals, gets in eyes, and most importantly, can be dusty. So, if you end up with a batch of dusty shavings with psuedomonas, you could end up with some really nasty problems with your neonate. Stick with straw or hay."

Then some people preferred hay over straw, either because straw was less common and more expensive than hay where they lived.

In a magazine I once read, it said to lay sawdust down, and then straw on top of that. the straw gives a nice cushiness , and allows for any liquids to go through into the sawdust, which will absorb it.

I personally am going to let my horse foal outdoors, keeping it as natural as possible, because in my opinion, horses had it great. Everything went well, until humans came and messed everything up.

So, I suggest you read all these and decide which one makes the most sense to you. Sorry I couldn't give you a better answer, but there are many ways, and its a matter of opinion and availability to which you use.
Most people use wheat straw in the foaling stalls.
I just passed riding level six, and the answer is: straw. This is for howrse.
Straw, so that the mare will not be scratched and the straw won't stick to the new foal. If you're looking for this answer for Howrse, howrseinfo.com has some answers for the riding levels :)
