The only time I got a real bite was from my Rottie. I was at a dog park and some fucking coon hound bit my Rottie for no reason and started a fight. I jumped in to break it up before my Rottie killed the stupid thing, and when I reached to get in the middle my hand accidently went into my Rottie's mouth as he was in mid-snap. Of course the teeth went through my fingers like butter and left a nice scar.
Other than that, I've never been bitten by a dog. Not to excuse a violent dog, but a lot of people are just retarded when it comes to interacting with strange dogs. I walk my Rottie with a muzzle now because people just don't know how to deal with dogs. I can't tell you how many times people have ran up to us, or came in too fast to pet my Rottie, or tried to hug him, or tried to come over the top on him. It blows my mind.

. We called those the "learning to read them years"
The very first I remember was after we egged a house at midnight when ten yrs old and ran through neighbors yard...his Afghan ambushed me. Well deserved in hindsight. The last time was about 3 months ago restraining a rescue black lab for a blooddraw. Minor but canine tooth punture through a muzzle. The worst bite I had was a Husky-Shep mix who bitch slapped me with a face bite while in a tub. Force of his head thrust swoll up my nose and near ripped the upper lip. I looked like a tried to eat a fooking bottle. Again, was damn near %100 my fault as was caught slipping and took him for granted but knew the history of aggression. Dumb! I deal with cast aways, rejects and also some very well socialized and trained dogs and can say the ones with the 'stereotypes'..Rotties, Pitts, Chows etc have caused me the least of bite grief. Never bit by a Rott but was dragged into doors and bowled over a couple times...Chows have lit me up a couple times and aside from Huskies in my experience, are the most unpredictable and quick to turn on offensive. Sometimes the very best feeling is taking one no one else can manage or deal with or will not treat and do so..turn them into tail waggers and content ass shakers going out the door
