Ridiculous Reading

I just read a list of the 10 most dangerous dogs. Lol. It is laughable.
First of all I will say that dogs are a product of their environment.  They are only as bad as their owners.
The list contained dogs such as Great Danes, ( I was raised with danes). I can tell you they are protective of their family as most dogs are.
Siberian husky was another, again, protective of family but are high energy and good dogs. Alaskan Malamute was another as well as wolf hybrids, dobermans, pitbulls, mastiffs, rottweilers and others named as well. I know people who have or have had pretty much all the dogs on the list and raised kids around these dogs and can safely say that they are all amazing dogs and never posed a danger or threat!
I wish people's minds were a bit more open. Living in Arizona I had the pleasure of having dogs such as German shepherds, as well as other breeds that were considered "dangerous". I've even had a Rottweiler and she was the sweetest dog ever. I use to have a friend that raised wolf hybrids in Arizona as well. I was around her dogs and never felt threatened at all. It's called understanding the dogs. They never perceived me as a threat nor I them. A lot of dogs get a bad wrap for whatever reason. Start holding the owners responsible for bad behavior,  not the breed.
Ok so I've said my peace regarding the ridiculous articles I've read. They are written by the ignorant and closed minded who refuse to look further into why some behave the way they do.
