Don't get me wrong, I'm not trying to say a retreiver bites as often as a Pit. What I'm saying is, a dog biting/attacking has virtually nothing to do with what breed it is, but rather has everything to do with how its raised. It's a learned behavior, NOT a genetic one.

What's strange is, it seems the media goes through different phases on what breed of dog to blame things one. When I was a little kid, it was the Doberman Pinscher that was the spurn of the earth. Then for a while it was the Rotties. And nowadays, it's the Pit.

I just wish they'd focus more on the dead-beat owners that raise their dog wrong, and are the root of the problem in the first place.
