I hear you on this. As a previous owner of 2 awesome Rotties....I don't share the same feelings on that particular breed. But I feel exactly that way about Dobies.
When I was a kid, there was a Dobie that lived on a chain and it was MEAN. The chain ended like an inch from the sidewalk. We had to walk past it to go to school everyday.
I always just waited for the chain to snap and he'd get his chance to kill us all. I have always been petrified of them since, every one.

When I was a child I was cornered in my goat's stall for hours by a Dobie (until someone came to find me). That neighbor's dog was nasty ....
The only dog I was ever bitten by was a GSD.
Now, today, GSD's & Dobies are my two favorite breeds! Wonder why?
Since that childhood experience - I never met a Dobie that wasn't steady. Unfortunately, can't say that for GSD's
In my neighborhood there is a couple that has a Boxer (looks more like a big Pitt - but what do I know about how large Boxers get) ... that scares us. The guy gets dragged around the sidewalks by this dog & it lunges at everybody with it's huge jaws snapping.
DANGEROUS DOG!
