A high percentage of
dog owners acquired their pets mainly for protection. Many breeds of dogs, including German Shepards, Rottweilers, Doberman
Pinschers, and Bull Mastiffs are some of the most dangerous dog breeds.
According to the American Medical Association,
the Center for Disease Control and the Insurance Information Institute: dog bites are the second leading cause of childhood
injury; dogs bite males an average of two times more than females; dogs that are licensed with identifiable owners are implicated
in the majority of dog bites; and 77 percent of dog bite injuries to children are to facial areas. These are serious statistics
to account for.
Moreover, across the United States almost five million people a year are bitten by dogs; the average
hospital stay for a dog bite injury is almost four days; Over a twenty year span, dog attacks resulted in more than 300 human
dog bite related deaths in the United States and most of the victims were children.
