I was bitten by more than 1 dog as a kid, no pitbulls or rottweilers. One was some tiny little mutt that grabbed my shoe and didnt even break through it. Another one grabbed my arm and I was able to get my hand in it's mouth and squeeze. That one broke skin and bled, but no permanent damage.

But wow if it'd been one of those strong dogs, who knows. I think they are too dangerous to keep as domestic pets. Not by training or whatever, just the breeds natural tendancy.
