My sister has two Danes and a Chow mix, and my other sister has a Malamute. Both of them live in the U.S

This is REALLY going to impress them

I find some inclusions on the list very surprising as you do-

Golden Retriever, French Bulldog, Fox Terrier, Boston, Pug???:smt017 Sadly some of the names I did expect to see, including Rotts

Well they must have taken this list from a conglomeration of areas that ban or restrict certain dogs, because this is certainly not the case all over the U.S. I can imagine some towns having these restrictions that may stem from an incident or incidents with that breed. Not that it excuses anything.

Pugs? Please. Why aren't chihuahuas on the list. They are the worst offenders.

That's crazy! I feel the need to point out, the only breed I've ever been bitten by isn't on there...

Also, we look at the lengthly list and think it's bad... but let's try to remember this includes small towns and communities. Which means a breed like pugs might be on the list because the mayor of a town of 10,000 doesn't like them and got some people to go along with him/her about ban/restrictions/ect... It could be worse, this could be the list for usa nationwide.

Seems strange that the Siberian husky is on the list as it's one of the most common breeds in the US
