That is a very telling article. I am especially interested in the numbers that have to do with fatalities. That is where the real difference comes in. Any dog can bite but only a few can kill (for the most part -- I know there are always exceptions to the rule).

BTW -- I apologize for the last post I made where the poster was just quoting the headline! The actual article said the number of dog bites had not gone down BY MUCH but the headline chose to shorten it for affect. Another slanting of the truth for the effect desired!
