The 38 Most Dangerous Dog Breeds In The World You Should Know About

4. Alaskan Malamute

They are strong pack animals that require rigorous training and strong leadership. Many believe that if this breed is not handled properly, it can become confused, charge at people and possibly go berserk. They have a strong drive to hunt prey and therefore need to be properly maintained. Another important aspect is that they are slow learners. This requires a lot of patience during training. This breed is task-oriented and once attached to a sled or given a command, they will run in the intended direction unless instructed otherwise. As a result, risks exist. With proper training, injuries can be avoided even with large Alaskan Malamutes.
