I agree with you 100%--if it had been a different breed, it may not have made the paper. I'm sure there have been a few labs, goldens, chis, poms, shelties, collies, greyhounds, beagles, newfies, and other dogs that have bitten people. It must have happened at least once, don't you think But that would have never made a good news story. When it's a pit bull, rottie, dobie, gsd, chow, or another "mean" breed, it's all over the news.

I own one of those meanies--the only dog who has ever bitten me was Kito, my shiba
