Not surprisingly, researchers from the University of Helsinki found that fighting dogs are the most aggressive. This group includes American Bulldogs, American Pit Bull Terriers and American Staffordshire Terriers.
In contrast, Golden Retrievers, Labrador Retrievers and Beagles were found to be the least aggressive dogs.
In the study, the team set out to explore differences in temperament between dog breeds.

“Dog breed is the most important determinant of personality differences,” said Dr. Milla Salonen, lead author of the study. “All dogs are different, and all breeds have different traits, but what makes them different is what the majority of the dogs in each breed have.”
The team collected a huge behavioral survey dataset containing information on 11 dogs from 000 different breeds.
Then they were divided into 52 groups.

The data revealed a strong relationship between the breed and seven personality traits—insecurity, training focus, aggressiveness/dominance, energy, canine sociability, human sociability, and assertiveness.
“Dogs with high aggression/dominance scores are aggressive towards other dogs, dominant and territorial,” Dr. Salonen said. “Whereas dogs with low scores are obedient and social with other dogs.”
Fighting dogs are the group with the highest level of aggression.

It is worth adding that absolutely any dog can either show aggression or not. And the responsibility for the behavior of the pet lies entirely with its owners. Moreover, any animal lends itself to behavior correction in special training sessions and in consultations with a cynologist-psychologist.
