I do not think there is a definitive list covering all 50 states.

The breed has everything to do with it. You don't hear about packs of spaniels attacking and killing people.
As for that labrador story, given the number of labs vs number of bull breeds and the frequency that that happens, it seems pretty obvious to me it's FAR more likely to happen with some breeds than others. Of course any dog can bite or kill, but the same offenders repeatedly appear time and time again.

Congratulations on being able to use Google and Wiki, but there still isn't a country-wide dangerous dogs list for the USA, as far as I know.

I can get nit picky
The breed is Cane Corso.
We are in the UK not US.
Not all bull breeds are mastiffs
Not all mastiffs are bull breeds
I hope that clears that up.

I don't recall saying there was did I? I said that the Cane Corsa was banned in the US. Maybe what I should have said was that the Cane Corsa was banned in far more states in the US than it wasn't banned but to be honest I didn't think people would be that nit picky.

Birker, this is what you said:
And I was saying that no such list exists, it's a massive country and each state and county and city and municipality will all have their own legislation.
It's not nitpicking, it is just fact, and it's important that people are equipped with facts, not opinions.

Okay Cane Corso are on the dangerous dogs list in the US in some states. I don't see it really makes any difference to be honest. They have been assessed by some states as dangerous dogs or they wouldn't be on the list. End of . Who cares if they are classed in one state or not the other.

Just reading through the list and came across this 'Cocaine and morphine were found in the dog's urine. The dog, named Major, was to be euthanised. ' WTF!!

That poor lady, what a horrific way to go.
I groom a young XL bully and he is absolutely beautiful but my god I’ve never seen a dog like it before. His head and jaw have to be seen to be believed. He is absolutely immense. If he decided to turn on me, I’d not stand a chance. The last groom he was over 5 stone and he’s only 6 months old.

I think comparing Cornwall and Wiltshire to Kentucky and Kansas and leopards to dogs is indicative of the overall problem, here, but sure, go off

Two fatalities are missing from the list in Birker2020's post #34.
9 people killed by dog/s this year
10 January 2022 3 British bulldogs John William Jones, M, 68 years Lampeter, Wales. A man was bitten by three dogs at a house in the town and consequently died at the scene from his injuries, as recorded by Ceredigion Coroner's Office. A woman was subsequently arrested in connection with the attack.[101]
6 March 2022 Husky Kyra Leanne King, F, 3 months Woodhall Spa, Lincolnshire. Three-month-old child killed after an attack at Ostler's Plantation, an area popular with dog walkers. A man and woman, aged 54 and 40, who were held on suspicion of being in charge of an out-of-control husky dog, have been released under investigation.[102]

From the screen shot you mean? They were missing but because someone had commented about the large amount of bully breeds earlier in the thread so I did a screen shot containing the info about them.

I think the breed does have something to do with it.
I have only ever met two dogs that scared me one was a Boerbel ( ended up PTS after it bit a member of its family ) and a American bulldog the owner of that dog got some heavy duty help and it grew up to be if not easy but able to lead life .
The pack thing when out of control it’s a terrible thought attacked by five America Bulldogs it makes me shiver to think of it
We are able to accept that breeding makes a dog predisposed to bring back a duck so therefore it’s not a big a jump to say other breeds are more predisposed to bite and hold on hard .
It is of course mainly down to the owners inappropriate care , exercise , numbers, no or the wrong training .
The poor dog is just as much the victim.

Retriever type dogs have soft mouths. They carry the bird without damaging it. Our Springer could carry an egg in her mouth without breaking it.

To what extent is the high proportion of bully attacks to do with the types of people that tend to own them, rather than to do with their nature and build alone? I'm sure that if every dodgy bloke with a XL bully had an Airedale terrier instead, there'd be people on here posting that Airedale terriers need to be banned with the number of people they've killed.
Then again, I'd still prefer people to have an XL bully than a bully kutta or a LGD breed being kept in the city.

Retriever dogs SHOULD have soft mouths, it is not fact, there are other dogs that should too. The type or breed of dog should make them predisposed to certain behaviours and their physical make up can make them more able to carry out certain actions.
Dog breeds were developed to carry out certain jobs so the breed or type must make a breed or type more predisposed to certain behaviours and abilities.
All of that said in my experience unersocialised and nervy dogs are the most likely to bite (not necessarily attack).
I love the bully breeds they are not bred to be aggressive they are generally very people friendly not so much friendly with other dogs, mastiffs, I have come across ones I am not so comfortable with more frequently but generally they are lacking social skills and confidence.
Its tricky because some dogs are armed with the physique that can make them so much more capable of doing significant damage than others but most of them still have sound temperaments.
Its more about the dogs being in the wrong hands, some people make mistakes with these dogs unintentionally others have them as status symbols but whatever the reason its always the dogs that suffers and often innocent people around them.
