Depends entirely on the breed.

Bite by a Chihuahua? Nuisance at best

Bite by a Pitbull? Death or horribly mangled for life

Fun fact, german shepherds bite more people annually than any other breed!

And the vast majority of bites are from animals improperly socialized or cared for, and then of course police and military duty. My shepherd bite was from the family dog that my father abused pretty severely.
