Overview
- UK outlets on December 12 amplified Casey Ray’s new video identifying five breeds he sees as frequent biters, with coverage relaying his claims without new official bite data.
- Ray stresses that environment, training, breeding practices and health issues drive most incidents, and he urges structured training, boundaries and veterinary care.
- His list names Chihuahua, Border Collie, Cocker Spaniel, Jack Russell Terrier and German Shepherd.
- He says Chihuahuas have the highest bite rate per capita in the U.S. because owners often overprotect them instead of training, which can reinforce nipping and reactivity.
- He attributes Border Collie nips to unspent herding energy and sensitivity, Jack Russell snaps to intense prey drive and weak structure, Cocker Spaniel bites to pain from chronic ear infections, and German Shepherd rankings to popularity-driven declines in temperament and frequent appearances in national bite statistics.
