!WOW! sorry to hear that, but in my eyes, a dog is only as good as their owner trains them to be. It is NOT always the dog's fault for their behavior. If people would train their dogs properly and show them the love and care they deserve this kind of thing may not happen. That is only my opinion

I agree 100%.

Ditto Navywife.

Quote: "the two-legged dogs", the people who train animals to attack, were the real problem behind vicious dog attacks. Although he was "terribly sorry" for Carolina, banning vicious dogs was not the answer to a highly complex issue. He believed judges have been too lenient on dog owners. "I don't think the courts take seriously enough the fact that owners of animals have a huge responsibility."

That's from the article and is completely how I feel.

Hi,
I don't blame the dogs either ~ the problem is with the owners and people who breed brain dead, aggressive dogs. Unfortuantly some people will get large dogs before they have any idea just how much work and time is required to bring up a well balanced, well behaved, trustworthy dog.
Unfortuantly some of these brain dead dogs just cannot be trained ~ no matter how much time & energy you put in ~ they are mentally sick and dangerous.
It also doesn't help when the leash laws and others are not enforced ~ the usual not enough money or man power excuses.
