Top 10 breeds that bite

I believe that a dog’s disposition is greatly determined by how the owner treats and trains the dog, but the CDC recently published a list of the top 10 dog breeds that are most likely to bite a postal worker.

This list was put together based upon data from last year regarding dog bites and postal workers. I own a Rotty and a Doby, and both are gentle as can be, while our neighbor owns a Golden Retreiver that would bite without warning if it had the chance.

Don’t let this list give you the wrong impression of these breeds, or a false sense of security with other breeds.

1. Pit Bulls
2. Rottweilers
3. German Shepherds
4. Huskies
5. Alaskan Malamutes
6. Doberman pinschers
7. Chows
8. Great Danes
9. Saint Bernards
10. Akitas
