These 10 Dogs Are Most Dangerous

These 10 Dogs Are Most Dangerous

Dogs have been said to be man’s best friends which is an indisputable fact considering the close bonds we have with them. Most of them are more than happy to stay with us and provide endless bouts of joy and companionship.
But make no mistake. That seemingly tame canine companion can just be as deadly as any other animal in the wild. Of course, a dog is not always looking to attack but when triggered, you can be sure of considerable damage.
And just how vicious the attack is comes down to the particular breed in question – and training. In today’s video, we’ll be looking at the top 10 dog breeds that can be absolute savages when provoked.
#10 Pit Bull
Pit bulls are probably the most known in the world of deadly dog breeds. They’re generally portrayed as aggressive and looking to attack at the slightest provocation. Heck, some countries have banned their breeding completely.
Are these fears and bad rap unfounded? Only to a certain extent.
The pit bull breed was originally brought up for the sole purpose of fighting initially against larger and more formidable opponents like bulls and bears. They were quite suited for that owing to their immense strength and agility; properties they acquired from their bulldog and terrier parents. They have strong jaws, wide skulls, and their bites can be lethal since they bite deep and tend to hold on tight.
Today, they’re still used in fighting sports but only against each other which is a bit unfortunate.
According to statistics in the United States, the pit bull breed has had a fair number of human attacks attributed to it. It leads the pack in the number of fatalities associated with dogs.
But dog experts attribute this to poor handling and treatment by the owners.
#9 Perro de Presa Canario
You can also call it the Canary Mastiff or the Canarian catch dog. The breed is rare but among some of the largest dogs around. It was developed initially to herd cattle but the use has evolved over time – just like the majority of breeds around the world.
Today, the dogs are mainly used as guard dogs owing to their well-built bodies. Before this, Perro de Presa Canarios were used in dog fights up until the mid-1940s when they were officially banned. They went on, illegally, for some time before their popularity waned later on in the 1950s.
Canary Mastiffs are known to have an aggressive temperament towards other dogs and strangers in some cases. This is only natural when you consider their partly violent past.
There have been cases of these dogs killing people around the world. There are at least two notable ones. The first occurred in 2001 in San Francisco when a lacrosse player and coach was mauled by two dogs as she entered her apartment.
The other involved three dogs and took place in Ireland.
#8 Rottweiler
Rotties have a lot going for them in the pooch world. They’re among the oldest herding breeds, they’re the most priced, and they rank at second place when it comes to aggressiveness. The breed was originally used for pulling meat carts and guarding livestock.
A Rottweiler has a lot of qualities you might desire in a dog – it is calm and feels the need to always protect property and family. But there is something else it will need to be your best furry friend – firmness on the part of the owner. In the absence of this combined with the lack of socialization, the dog can be a nightmare to keep. When you include its sheer strength, you have enough reasons to see why the breed is not for every other Joe out there.
It tends to be aggressive towards strangers unless the owner carries out a proper introduction. In the United States, Rotties come in second behind pit bulls in terms of fatal attacks according to Forbes. They accounted for 45 fatal attacks over 13 years.
That’s why these dogs aren’t considered ideal as family pets. They’re mainly used as police dogs, search and rescue dogs and as guard dogs.
#7 Siberian Husky
Siberian huskies were bred for at least three purposes – sled pulling, companionship, and guarding. And being that they were once confined in the Siberian Arctic, these canines are well-adapted to cope with the extreme cold and other harsh conditions.
The Chukchi, who were the original breeders of the Siberian husky, usually kept the dogs around them and their families. This means they have just the right temperament for peacefully co-existing with people, especially kids.
But on the other hand, the dogs were left to roam free during summer. This is when they gathered in packs to hunt small animals like squirrels, wild cats, and birds. They only went back to their respective Chukchi homes when winter set in and the prey became scarce.
