Let's play a game...
""There should be a clause in the ordinance outlawing private ownership of xx~~~~xx. This may sound like an archaic or narrow-minded view, but I believe the xx~~~~xx to be an unpredictable animal. Every time you read about a child being killed or mauled, by a dog or dogs, the odds are overwhelming that the dirty work was done by the xx~~~~xx. A father in West Virginia battled a pack of xx~~~~xx with a garden hoe while they tore his two small sons to pieces. A little girl in Houston who was horribly maimed by a xx~~~~xx must go for the rest of her life wearing a wig. So far, a San Antonio kid hasn't been seriously hurt or killed by one of these dogs. But it will happen." (San Antonio Express, July 10, 1969).
Guess the dog.....for the answer highlight the following space... German Shepherds

2008 US Dog Bite Fatalities Interim Report: January 1 - September 13
From time-to-time, DogsBite.org is requested by a municipality to create an interim year fatality report, such as this. What stands out thus far is the high percentage of pit bull killings (61%), that only one person over the age of 2 was killed by a breed other than a pit bull and that 100% of off-property attacks have been attributed to pit bulls. The high rate of infant fatalities (1-years old and younger) across a variety of breeds stands out as well.
18 US fatal dog attacks have occurred so far in 2008. Pit bull type dogs were responsible for 61% (11). Pit bulls make up approximately 2-9% of the US dog population.
Only one person over the age of 2 has been killed by a breed other than a pit bull this year; a 74-year old woman was fatally mauled by her two dogs (Australian shepherd-mix and a golden retriever-mix).
67% of the attacks occurred to children (11 years and under). Half of these incidents occurred to ages 1 and younger. 33% of all fatalities occurred to adults (21 years and older).
39% of fatal attacks in involved multiple dogs; 11% involved chained dogs.
72% of the attacks occurred on owner property and 28% off owner property. Of the off-property attacks, 100% (5) were attributed to pit bulls.
39% of the victims were female; 61% of the victims were male. Of the male victims, nearly half (8) were 11 years and younger.
The states of Texas, Alaska and New York each suffered two fatalities.
