I have two female Catahoulas that will bite a man if they come up in the yard without me outside. I like it because my wife works from home and my daughter watches my boys sometimes when me and the wife are gone. If they bit a random kid that wondered in the yard no matter the reason I'd kill the dogs asap. I had a guy helping me build a pad at my mother in-laws one time that reached over in my truck to pet my female Dixie and got his arm mangled up pretty bad. He shouldn't have done it but I have a dog box now so I don't have to worry about that happening again.
