The 10 most dangerous dogs are not the dogs listed at all. The most dangerous is the 2 legged humans who do not properly care for their beloved pets. There are those out there that have no business owning a pet. They do not understand the unconditional love any pet will bring you. If an animal is abused, what do you expect will become of that pet? People are more dangerous than any dog I have met.

I'd love to know how the author came up with this list. I can't speak for all breeds but, I can speak about the Siberian Huskies. The only time these wonderful animals would be aggessive is if they are threatened. Other than that, they are very gentle, even with infants.

The Huskies appear at # 4 on the list of the 10 most dangerous dogs and even at that, there are a couple of glaring errors. First of all, they are called Siberian Huskies because they originated in Siberia, not Alaska. Next, they are listed as ""husky-type dogs". Other than the Malamute (which is listed at # 5 on this dreaded list), what is a "husky type dog"? Finally, the Husky "type dog" is accused of causing fifteen fatalities (6% of the total) over an 18 year span. My question is how many of these alleged deaths were acutally caused specifically by the Siberian Husky?

Now, if I'm able to come up with these errors with just one of the dreaded "10", I'm sure owners of the other breeds mentioned could come up with corrections as well.

I think the author needs to get his/her facts straight before coming up with a list that is so glaringly wrong.

Well some dogs are just dangerous. But the owner is the dog's future. Dogs need to be raised right and then they will be good dogs. Like my Lab.=)
