To: airedale

BTW, I love airedales.
In 2007, 33 people were killed in the US by dogs.
Top 10 biters?
German shep
Chow
Akita(aggressive in breed standard)
Rot
Doberman
Pit
Mixes
Alaskan malamute
St bernard
Great dane

I only see one on the list the kills in a predatory manner.

I notice that Chows are right at the
top of the list. Chows are NOT to be trusted.
You couldn’t give me one.
I’ve owned Shepards, Plotts,mixes of all kinds
but the smartest and most reliable was a
female Blue Heeler, incredibly intelligent.

An Akita will never be safe off leash. It can be ferocious with other animals. Before they were bred to fight, they were bred to hunt bears in the mountains of Japan. Two of them can take down a bear, working together. They are very difficult to call off, once they start an attack.
