An unprovoked bite (unless the dog was in extreme pain) is a sure sign 
of a dangerous dog.  
When people ask me about placing a biting dog, I do ask to hear the 
entire story.  I have yet to hear one that was not simply human 
agression, wether fear, dominance, or some type of rage.  
IMHO the only time that a pyr should ever bite, is when all other 
defenses fail and the life of their live stock (human or animal) is 
threatened.  And unfortuanatley, in today's society this is some times 
still unexceptable.
