I'll agree that the chances of an attack are reduced with a good owner and well trained dog..but, all dogs are animals and unpredictable...that soft, loving, ball of fur can become a wall of lethal teeth in an instant given the wrong circumstances...regardless of whether its a miniature Yorkie that punctures your jugular or an Irish Wolfhound that rips your head off.
Was listening to the radio yesterday, a copper rang in to say that they had tried standard poodles as police dogs at one point. They were smarter and stronger than German Shepherds but the public perception was that poodles didn't have the same fear factor
