However, just look at a tiny dogs mouth, it isn't big enough or strong enough to be able to easily kill a person. Sure, it could kill an infant, and there are isolated cases of probably every breed doing something heinous, just as there are examples of the "bad" breeds that are lovable friendly dogs. BUT....we work in insurance where you look at large samples. Most of the really shocking cases of dog bite are from a few breeds. Is it fair to penalize the owners of those breeds ? Its as fair as charging more car insurance for a young male, a low credit score, or multiple violations.
