Your statement of aggressive (to standard) BB, can be interpreted that BBs are aggressive...and than comes the first time a BB is in the US News of attacking and killing a person......hence "they are a pretty aggressive breed"

I personally do not think they are an aggressive breed....I met over 50 BBs and not one of them aggressive towards me (a stranger). And about a handful were dog aggressive. I agree that there are certain lines that tend to be more dominant than others. But I am by no means an expert in that area.

Proper socializing and obedience training contributes greatly to how your dog behaves. I agree with you regarding dog parks, especially if your not an experienced owner/handler. My male BB is not aggressive and has never started a fight, but I know his personality well and know that he needs his "space," just by his body posture and eyes. Just like people we have a certain "space" we dont like others to invade.

I think its wrong to put "human aggressive" and "any dog breed name" into the same sentence.
