Most dangerous dog breeds

Determining the most dangerous dog breeds is somewhat speculative since even a dog that is on the top 5 most dangerous dog breeds list might pose no threat – depending on the circumstances.

A dog on the top 5 most dangerous dog breeds list might be able to live in a home with small children, the elderly and even other dogs if the dog is properly trained and supervised, although it is generally not advised because the risk is simply is too high.

  1. Pit bull
  2. Bull Terrier
  3. Presa Canario
  4. Neapolitan Mastiff
  5. Dogo Argentina

People that own dangerous animals are sometimes not suited to own an aggressive breed of dog.

They fail to possess the necessary training and experience needed to control such a breed and this lack of experience means that anyone around such an animal is at risk.

Also, certain dog breeds are simply inherently more dangerous than others.

A pet chihuahua, for example, is not often in the news for maiming or killing a person.

Most are kept as family pets and chihuahua’s rarely travel in packs attacking people.

Pit bulls, on the other hand, are often involved in unprovoked attacks on people resulting in severe injuries and even death, yet some loyal to the breed insist any attacks are due to the way the breed is raised.

Any dog, whether raised nicely or not can, without provocation, attack.

A point to consider is that, most able-bodied people would be able to defend themselves and  survive an attack by a chihuahua or a miniature poodle.

It is much harder to for someone to successfully defend themselves when being attacked by a pit bull due to their strength.

Responsible pet owners should keep this in mind ensure that they choose a pet that is suitable for their family.
