Fixed ... every dog has an element of aggression that is inherent to their nature and breeding; and yes, owners can affect an individual animals aggression - but the differences between one breed and another are purely a function of nature and breeding. Of course not all dogs are by nature the same in this regard - some breeds are naturally and by breeding more aggressive than others - a fact described by Flofocus who is pit bull owner.

Exactly - all dogs have a natural aggression to some degree or another. What differs is their physical abilities and their psychological make up. Dachsunds were bred to be rat killers IIRC and their behaviour reflects their breeding.

An attack by a dachsund would be a very unpleasant thing ... but unlikely to be deadly. Miniature poodles could for all I know be more aggressive than pit bulls, but by virtue of their size and strength their ability to kill a human being is very limited. That makes them far less dangerous to the overall population than say a pit bull.
