Did you know though, that more bites overall are done by those small, little helpless dogs then the large PBT's, rotties and the like?? The thing is that no one reports getting bit by their pomeranian, cocker or what not.

In training, any breed regardless of size is to be respected and in turn, trained so that they are social and respectful of the human at the other end of the leash. I have more issues with antisocial, nasty, mean small dogs in my classes then anything else. Also issues with Labs, chows and beagles, I hate beagles-worst ones out there. People pamper, spoil and underestimate the intelligence of the pocket dogs and those dogs take advantage of it every chance they get.

Personally having the attitude that it's okay for a small dog to be aggressive is ridiculus. No dog in a public or private setting should show aggressive behavior, period. I for one have meet some of the nicest PBT's and love the breed. If we continue to outlaw or ban a breed, they just move on to another one.

It's all about the training not the breed, nothing more and nothing less.
