or Any dog that has any of the above breeds in their lineage.

what do you feel about them being listed as "dangerous"?

ps softballin you are crazy a dangerous LAB? I have never ever seen one of those and my family breeds champion labradors.

Answer 1

No...I have a beagle, she's not really dangerous. But my attack rabbit is.

Answer 2

I know what he seems like. My mom acquired an English Setter, and i rather hate that Breed, it makes me hate the dog! Eventhough she is horrible to me, biting me, and no longer play-biting both. Its full on skin-breaking biting! I love Siberian Huskies, they're the best canine for me, and English Setters are just so...Gross! Identical with all of the Gundogs. But if its not something else however the beard, then which you could cut that off. But when he still simply does not like the entire breed, then i would seriously bear in mind asking him his favourite breed of canine. Then decide upon from there. If a canine comes into a house with a nasty atmosphere (a member does not like the brand new arrival) then it makes it uncomfortable for the canine, that would not be reasonable. I assume its the identical factor with me and my Mums canine! I just absoloutly hate her. Excellent luck, ~ Zarago ~

Answer 3

A gun doesn't kill people,the owner of the gun kills people.I feel the same way about dogs.A dog goes on instinct and survival and what the master trains it to do.Rabies and others diseases can be prevented if the owner puts a little money into it.That is the problem with people the don't want to spend a little extra money on the animal having it fend for itself.If you can't take care of it when it isn't as cute as that little puppy you brought home,don't buy it.

Answer 4

My dog is a Rottweiler/Lab mix and she is so sweet! My brother in laws dog is a pit bull and shes really sweet too. I think it has more to do with the way you raise them that makes them dangerous or not. Neither of those dogs I mentioned have ever bit anybody or even tried to.

Answer 5

i comprehend what he appears like. My mom have been given an English Setter, and that i in my view hate that Breed, it makes me hate the canines! Eventhough she is terrible to me, biting me, and not play-biting the two. Its complete on epidermis-breaking biting! i admire Siberian Huskies, they're the appropriate canines for me, and English Setters are only so...gross! same with each and every of the Gundogs. yet whilst its no longer something however the beard, then you definately can cut back that off. yet whilst he nevertheless only would not like the full breed, then i could heavily evaluate asking him his universal breed of canines. Then make a call from there. If a canines comes right into a house with a foul environment (a member does no longer in ordinary terms like the hot arrival) then it makes it uncomfortable for the canines, that does no longer be honest. i assume its an analogous element with me and my Mums canines! I only absoloutly hate her. solid success, ~ Zarago ~

Answer 6

I have owned a boxer, we actually just had to have him put tp sleep..he was 10 years old & the biggest baby, he was protective of my kids but never once had tried to bite someone. We know have a rott/golden retriever mix puppy, he is a big baby too, my 4 year old lays all over him & the most he does is give him kisses. It all depends on how they are raised & treated! I hate these lists..........because of a few bad stories we end up paying more because if your insurance company finds out they will charge you more to insure your house due to the liability factor!

Answer 7

My dog is half Rottweiler. He is really sweet,but ONLY if you know him. Otherwise he is VERY dangerous. He is not afraid in the least to bite you or worse. So we half to keep him chained up all the time. I think that (from the lots of experience I've had with ALL kinds of dogs) that most of what you listed are indeed capable of being dangerous.

Answer 8

i have a Boxer, Siberian Huskie, German Shepherd, Pit Bulls, and a Rottweiler.... they all interact nicely together... they play rough bt they arent dangerous... well atleast mine...... i have 1 nt on that list that is worse than the 1s on the list... its a black lab.... he is very protective...... yes... i really do have 6 dogs n they r all puppies... between the ages of 3 months(Siberian Husky) and 1year 6 months and 4 days(Pit Bull)

Answer 9

I have a German Shepard. It's stupid that they're on the list, since he's the most harmless dog I've ever owned! He doesn't even growl or bark at other people! I guess it's because people train them to be guard dogs that they have violent tendencies... I've had German Shepards all my life, and not one was violent. They're loving and loyal dogs, and my favorite breed. So yeah, I guess that you can tell that I'm slightly offended! Not your fault, though... :)

Answer 10

I have a SIberian Husky. She is the sweetest, most loving dog. She would never hurt a person.
If one dog in a breed kills someone, then the entire breed is blacklisted. It is the owner and the individual dog's fault, not the breed's!
I like this saying from the AKC: "Deed, not Breed."

No one should judge a dog based on its breed, just like no one should judge a person based on their race.

Answer 11

Yes, I have a Doberman Pinscher and I think it is so stupid my homeowners is more because of it!!!!!!!!!!!!
Chiwawas or whatever smaller breeds are more dangerous if you ask me.
Sorry I didn't hear about Diane Whipple, what kind had killed her?
May she rest in peace.
