Depends on the breed of dog

That’s why I only have pet snails… oh, shit.

82 deaths by dogs per day around the world seems high.. but there are some powerful breeds out there

It's probably just because dogs more closely live in people. I miss in comparison human.

Man’s best friend are not dangerous…shitty humans that don’t know how to handle dogs are dangerous. There are breeds that are inherently more aggressive than others but responsible dog owners understand this and do not let accidents happen. In other words, if you own a pit bull and aren’t ...

Probably in 3rd world countries where they roam free in the streets.

No 😡😤

Certain type of dogs sure.

If this is global, a lot of those deaths likely come from diseases transmitted by dogs like rabies, and from feral dogs attacking children. Giant aggressive pet dogs mauling people is likely a very small percentage of that statistic.

Why don't we eradicate mosquitoes?

As a dog owner, I think that most accidents are not caused by the dog itself. Most happen because of dogs that have a high stress level due to their owner. Of course, there are breeds that are more easily stressed than others, but dogs that are dangerous on their own are relatively rare.

The sheer number of people living with dogs skews the results. Imagine if we all kept mosquitos as pets…

why is no one talking about freshwater snails 🐌??!!

true, dogs are dangerous heartbreakers. once you let them in, you're lost forever.

It’s the dogs not the owners #unpopularopinion

In regions such as SE Asia, dogs tend to be problematic because large numbers are routinely rejected by their owners (perhaps they can no longer afford to feed them) and those dogs end up running free, which in turn means they end up living in packs; reverting back to the lifestyle of their ancestor...

They kill a lot of kids - especially dogs like pitbulls etc... I was mauled and almost killed by a doberman/german shepherd when I was a kid.

Further research says rabies is the direct link especially in Asia which calls all of that into question. So, it would appear that it’s the transmission from a bite and not actually being mauled to death. If that’s true, then it calls all those figures into question.
