To add to this here's a recent systematic review looking at rates of dog bites by and bite severity by breed. Consistently Pit-bulls and German Shepherds have higher likelihood of causing biting injury against people and have increased severity of injury [0]. Anecdotally, so far I have only seen bite injuries in the ER from Pit-bulls and German Shepherds (n < 5). That being said, whether or not breed specific legislation works to minimize dog bites is a separate scientific question. [0] https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/30579079/ |
