I don't look at statistics that may or may not be skewed. I look at personal experience over more than a decade of regular interaction. And make no mistake, I keep a close eye on some of the mastiffs and rotts, and other protection breeds as well.
Pitbulls and some pit mixes win the least trusted dog breed sweepstakes.
