All the dogs I used to have, the only one who ever bit anyone was my chow. Three bites in one summer. Until we got her meds figured out. Fortunately 1 was a close friend, 1 was my mother in law, and 1 was the kid of a neighbor who had just backed into my car, so we essentially swapped a door panel for a (very minor) puncture wound. But yes, dog bites are a real liability risk.
