I have been bitten by more chihuahuas than German shepards, rottweilers, and pit bulls put together.
As a person that has handled, trained, rescued, and cared for literally thousands of dogs,I can say that biting is not breed specific. It is more situation specific.
Any dog can and will bite at any time with the right stimuli.
Some dogs, when biting such as Pit bulls, and Cane Corsos will do more damage than others because of the structure of their skulls. Any well motivated herding group dog biting is going to hurt.
The trick is to identify a biting situation and avoid it if possible.
Many dogs posture is a great clue if you can recognize it.
