Humans were lucky that it worked out that bigger dogs generally are less mean.

A "Showerthought" is a simple term used to describe the thoughts that pop into your head while you're doing everyday things like taking a shower, driving, or just daydreaming. A showerthought should offer a unique perspective on an ordinary part of life.
Rules
- All posts must be showerthoughts
- The entire showerthought must be in the title
- Avoid politics
- NEW RULE as of 5 Nov 2024, trying it out
- Political posts often end up being circle jerks (not offering unique perspective) or enflaming (too much work for mods).
- Try c/politicaldiscussion, volunteer as a mod here, or start your own community.
- Posts must be original/unique
- Adhere to Lemmy's Code of Conduct-----

My mom and sister have chihuahuas and my grandfather has a shih tzu, they are all super sweet dogs who have ever been aggressive towards anyone. Meanwhile, a family that lives down the street from my grandfather had a golden retriever that had to be put down because it kept attacking kids unprovoked. Sure, some dogs are more predisposed to be aggressive than others but the way they are raised and the environment they live in plays a massive role in how a dog acts.
