More people are actually attacked by small dogs, they are just not as reported, because people tend to put their faces near to little dogs, and children tend to be around them more. Just because a few dogs of a breed are bad, doesn't mean the breed is bad. The same fear and stereotypes used to surround German Shepherds, and where is that now?
It's always a matter of training and discipline with dogs. Most of the time people don't even know when they are being "threatening" to a dog in dogspeak.
