In every instance... go with the breed who just isn't going to ever turn on you.

Chihuahuas are better protectors than pit bulls because

  • they are remarkably good "alarm" dogs
  • they could not eat your hand off if you were dead and not resisting. They can't accidentally snap and kill y ou!

A Chow Chow is the only dog that ever bit me, completely unprovoked, and I required stitches afterwards. I've only met one Chihuahua that didn't look crazed and try to attack.

I'd say it maybe depends more on individual temperaments of the dogs than it does a sweeping generalization of an entire breed.

Thats a good point. What do you think about huskies ?
