    Comments: Dogs that are considered "vicious" are no more potientally violent than any other dog. It has to do with the way the animal is raised. I've seen a pit bull cuddle with kittens, and a Golden Retriver kill another smaller dog out of jelousy. Certian breeds have a history of attacks only because they are often the ones chosen by dog owners who want to teach a dog to be mean.

    Comments: I'm a dog trainer, pet groomer, and breeder. How a dog behaves has very little to do with their breed. Most of their behavior affects how they were raised and trained. To make matters worse. Most of the dogs that are considered "dangerous" here have been proved to be some of the best behaved breeds. Just have bad reputations due to improper breeding and training. I'd pay more attention to the people buying insurance, not the breed of their dog.

    Comments: I've always thought that this is unfair!! There are millions of wonderfull family dogs out there, (one example, GermanShepherds), that have been labeled as "attack dogs" but are in reality sweet and caring pets. Something should be done about this. I will get EVERYONE I know to sign this!!! Thanks

    Comments: As a rescue person, it sickens me to know, not just think, that our society is no where near the "diversified" people we all claim to be. Before we can fully grasp the definiton of "diverse", one should learn that the definiton does not stop at race or religion. German Shepherds are number one on the list for insurance issues. For once, in the history of Man, shall we please take a step back and focus more on the people who create "vicious" dogs! Diversity starts on an individuality basis, thus, let the indiviual dogs be heard through the people who have the power to make change!!!

    Comments: I find it ridiculous that upstanding citizens who take the time to find a well-bred dog and put in effort to make it well trained are penalized, while a person who buys a puppymill dog and allows it to go around harassing neighborhood children is given full privlages, just because of the breed. Any dog can be dangerous if attention is not payed to breeding only those with stable temperments and socializing from a young age. Also, most people bitten by dogs are children--in which case, a Cocker Spaniel could cause pleanty of damage. If homeowner insurance companies are still wary of certain breeds, at least they can offer owners of stereotyped breeds a chance to prove their dogs, such as making them getting certified to prove that the dog is stable and not dangerous. Temperment Testing and/or Canine Good Citizen, references from veterinarians and obedience instructors, etc, all could provide a much more educated basis for homeowner insurance than the breed. I'd rather live next door to an American Pit Bull Terrier who has recieved his CGC certificate than an agressive dog of the more accepted breeds.

    Comments: As the proud owner of an American Pitbull Terrier, and the mother of three children. I know first hand, it is how you raise, nurture and respect your pet that gives you a trustworthy animal. Not what breeding they have. My dog might lick someone to death but he has never bitten anyone.
