But... but... Corgis are more agressive according to tests. That's why you always see reports of corgis mauling children to death in the news.

Pit bull attacks
Bearing in mind the severity of the injuries related to pit bull bites, some municipalities have limited or banned ownership of pit bulls as a way of reducing these incidents. Interestingly, despite several proposals to ban pit bulls in the City of Chicago, no such law has taken hold.
However, when evaluating dog bite attacks by breed, a 2008 study compiled by The Coalition for Living Safely with Dogs looked at all dog bites occurring in the Denver, CO area during the prior year. The study concluded that dog attacks were most common with the following breeds:
  • Labrador retrievers: 13.3%
  • Pit Bulls: 8.4%
  • German Shepherds: 7.8%
  • Rottweilers: 3.9%
  • Chows: 3.5%
====

Labs lead the pack by a hefty margin, and German Shepherds are half a percent behind pits.
