While dogs are often a loveable addition to our lives, some breeds are either genetically disposed to aggression or have been socialized that way. The CDC dog bite statistics by breed<\/a> indicate that Pitbulls are responsible for 66% of all bite fatalities in the United States, highlighting the risks of interacting or owning certain types of canines.<\/p>\n

In New Jersey, some cities and counties have specific regulations regarding the ownership of potentially dangerous dog breeds because of a perceived threat to public safety. As a strict liability state, pet owners are held responsible for their animals\u2019 behavior regardless if there is a history or not of aggressive behavior.<\/p>\n

Most Common Dog Breeds That Bite<\/h3>\n

While the CDC has listed Pit Bulls leading dog bite incidents by breed, as well as other larger canines like Rottweilers, Chow Chows, and Akitas, it\u2019s important to remember that any dog has the potential to bite you. These dangerous incidents frequently leave innocent bystanders, children, and neighbors with devastating injuries that can affect them for a lifetime.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Trying to avoid dog breeds that are most likely to bite is almost impossible. Chihuahuas can attack and injure your face or limbs. The same can happen with larger Labrador Retrievers, a popular canine type that most of us view as non-threatening in nature. Being cautious around dogs that are known to bite more frequently will not ensure that you never experience an aggressive attack.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Even though dog bites are not always vicious, the amount of physical harm caused by these acts can be due the result of the animal\u2019s size and powerful jaws.
