Rottweilers
Rottweilers are another dog breed known for their aggression. They are very protective dogs especially when it comes to their masters. Although they may not be too fond of strangers, Rottweilers can actually be very loving and tender dogs to the members of their family if trained properly.

Dachshunds
Despite being a very small breeds, Dachshunds are a very aggressive dog breed. The main problem with this breed is the biting, they have been known to bite strangers, other dogs, other animals, and even their own owners. Fortunately, they are small dogs so if they do bite you it won't be as painful as if it were a larger breed, but being bitten by a dog is not pleasant no matter what the circumstances.

Pit bulls
No one should be surprised to find this breed of dog on the list of most aggressive dog breeds. Their aggressiveness tends to be caused by the amount of inbreeding among these dogs, but it could also be their environment. They are very unpredictable dogs and can turn on the aggression very quickly. Pit bulls tend to be more aggressive towards other dogs rather than humans, but that is not to say there is nothing to worry about.

Dobermans
Dobermans are a very aggressive breed, but if there your dog has a bit of aggression in them, you would want it to be like that of the Doberman. Dobermans tend to only be aggressive when they believe that they, or their masters, are being attacked or are in danger. Of course, every individual dog is different, and that goes for every breed, but Dobermans are usually more protective than aggressive.
