So sad. As the owner of a part-chow, this scares me no end. She's the sweetest, most submissive coward and has about 1/128th chow, just enough to give her a black spot on the tongue, but people see the pointy ears and the curly tail and get very anxious about her.
As the vet said, there are many breeds that have been responsible for vicious attacks, and more often than not the problem is not the breed per se but a tempermental disposition to dominance or territoriality combined with irresponsible owners who fail to train or confine their dogs. It's sad that regardless of whether it's humans' fault, it's the dogs that get punished.
