It all relies on the owner; Dogs will adapt to the personality of their owner or to how they are treated.

I'm not a dog handler by any means, but I know how to work with them, even having to used pure assertion to keep a rotweiler and another dog from attacking my neighbor and her grand kid, and again to rescue one of my teachers from two wild dogs. If you are the dominator, you can protect yourself from most dogs.
