I've probably said this more than once, but I have to agree that this is an unfair stereotype.
At the shelter we usually have many many larger dogs, and yes that includes pit bulls. Of my three years there I have been bitten or nipped at least 3 times. Twice by poms, and once by a poodle-terrier mix. The pitties have been the sweetest dogs just wanting someone to take them home and scratch their back. While we wait our turn for the one and only tub I have been known to sit on the floor with the pittie that is currently in my care and even use them as a pillow. The worst that has happened with the pitties is a bruise on my leg from the constant wagging of their tail! They are usually so happy to see and greet other people, and they are so ignorant of their strength that they don't know how strong they are, even their tail!!! But I think it's safe to assume that any large dog is stronger than our beloved yorkies and that it would be a good idea to keep and eye for safety reasons, but not because pitties or any large dogs are dangerous.
Yes there are vicious dogs out there, but they come in all shapes and sizes. I don't think it's in their nature to be vicious, more like they learned to be a certain way to survive. Survive on the streets, survive awful owners, or God knows what. Just my 2 cents.
