CDC's 10 Most Dangerous Dogs List
While national statistics show at least 30 breeds have attacked humans, 10 dog breeds are on the Center for Disease Control and Prevention's most dangerous list, meaning they tend to bite the most frequently. They are:
Pit bulls
Rottweilers
German Shepherds
Huskies
Alaskan Malamutes
Doberman Pinschers
Chow Chows
Great Danes
St. Bernards
Akitas
The breeds considered most likely to kill are pit bulls and rottweilers, and the CDC says that a chained dog is more likely to bite than an unchained dog.
The CDC also says the majority of dog attacks happen at home or in a familiar place, which is why choosing the right dog for your family is crucial.
"There are approximately 4.5 million reported dog bites annually in the United States (nearly 2% of the American population). The majority of dog bites are never reported to local authorities."

all that shows is that a pit bull can kill if he attakcs.. yeah... those are all big dogs... I dunno abt y0ou but I fear little ancle biters more than big dogs and I have been bitten many times by little dogs... that does not show who bits humans the most only which can do the most damage... you can take 3 shots from a 38 special but only one shot from a 45 right? bigger the dog the bigger the bite but does not mean as often... that just shows death.. what about loosing a finger or a nose I had a buddy got his nose riped off by a cocker spanial... did not kill him but riped his nose off...
