I think this sums it up
The funny thing is a dog trainer I know personally was bitten by an adolescent chocolate lab. Bitten to the bone in her forearm and had an emergency room visit. She was asked 10-15 times if the dog was a pit bull. Each time she responded that it was chocolate lab. But everyone knows that labradors never ever bit anyone. And if they did it was because they were being beaten. Of course because she trains a lot of pit bulls, she got quite testy with the medical personnel.
This dog trainer believes in positive only training methods. Rewards for desired behavior and no punishments. The trainers opinion was that owners of the labrador refused to tell the dog no about anything which eventually lead to the dog attacking her.

The only dog that has ever bitten me was a German Shepard. That being said I would never allow a pitbull to be around my daughter, but I would allow a german shepard around her. I think pits are beautiful animals but they really do seem to be more "wild" than other breeds. Its tough to say they should be outlawed but if these retarded *** wanna be gangsters dont get their **** together and start training their dogs right they are going to be outlawed. Also its so sad when I go to the animal shelter and almost every other dog is a pit because they are being so over bred. We should start euthanizing the dumb *** pitbull owners.
I think the perception about pits and even rots is that they are fighting animals. The general populace would have this opinion or ****zus if they were raised and trained to be fighting animals. I don't want a pit but that is because I want another breed of dog.
In short it is all about how you raise them.

I once heard a statistic that labs were one of the breeds that had the bite rates. I don't know if that's true or not. I would imagine that they are accidental bites. I know my labs tend to get real hyper when we break out the tennis balls and tend to try to get them right out of our hands. It would be easy to accidentally get my hand in that type of situation.
I've owned two labs (both black) and neither ever bit anyone. Even when the kids would treat them like carnival rides.
But, that's just those two particular dogs...
I have two as well right now as well as growing up my entire life with them and never had any incidents either.
That is they type of dog i am going to get. Just haven't decided between yellow, chocolate or black.
