Casualties is not causalities.

There is definitely selection bias.

Not surprising larger dogs cause more damage than smaller dogs. Gf's pig has bitten me 40-50 times. Barely scratched the skin. My lab mix bit her once and she went to the ER.

Why don't we see the same frequency issues with Danes and Tibetan mastiffs? There just aren't many.

Why are Pitts and rotties used as security dogs? Some may be due to genetic predisposition, but they are also plentiful, relatively cheap and human society knows they can fuck you up.
