Statistically more bites and nips come from goldens, but that’s only because they are a more popular breed then most for people with kids. However, ratio wise, when talking about violent attacks-that record belongs to pit bulls, by a long shot

I’ve been bit by a golden (and a labradoodle) before. They bite but they release. They don’t go for the kill like bully breeds.

Yeah exactly. Same thing after being nipped by my friend’s German shepherd as a kid. The dog released right away. I think some people on here who think it’s just the ‘media’ that try and make out pit bulls bad should venture over to that sub Reddit ‘ban pit bulls’ and see the damage they can do. Doesn’t matter whether they come from a good or bad home.
