Whisper er
 “I deal with a lot of red zone cases, and I
often hear people incorrectly blaming the
breed. Any breed can cause trouble. The
difference between an aggressive Chihuahua
and an aggressive pit bull is that the bigger
breeds can cause proportionately bigger
damage. It is important to recognize the
power of a strong breed, like the pit bull, the
Cane Corso, and the Mastiff. These dogs are
very powerful and, if they are unbalanced,
they can cause serious injury.”-Cesar Millan-
