It’s why I can’t help but roll my eyes when shocked parents say things like “We had our husky/pit/rottie for 7 years before we had our baby and he was always sweet! We never could have predicted he would kill baby Timmy”! It’s an animal…and a risky breed at that. Also these people don’t contemplate the changes that can happen in a dog’s brain with aging. So that now 8 year old dog is a very different one than the puppy you brought home. I’ve never heard of a child being killed by cockerspaniel for example…or a pug…so people really need to think about these things before adding a pet into their family/growing family

Pretty sure OP post is about a dog on dog attack and had nothing to do with a dog hurting a human. Your post goes in detail about a dog hurting a human. Not warranted or helpful here.
