Wasnt there a case a few years back about a doberman or rottweiler attacking a baby in a pram. This was before the advent of the internet. |

I did not label you an irresponsible dog owner and I did not intend for you to feel that way My whole point is to state that in cases of dogs attacking humans, it is quite often the owners fault that the dog does what it does but now always, as in the story, a lovely dog and un-provoked attack but the dog in it's own little world thought he had good reason. Some instances are un-explainable but maybe you could ask a dog behavourist or there are dog forums out there too, someone there may be able to assist? Mike Edited by 540 V8 |

None, as they are not working dogs. Yes they were originally bred for fighting but that is more due to their size and muscle as opposed to a bad temperament. I have a couple of friends who have them and they are more soppy than a wet sponge. Again, a badly brough up staff could potentially be nasty, but couldn't any badly trained dog? Mike |

I couldn't agree more. My dogs if they are charging at you can look extremely menacing but would never harm a thing. My black shepherd was once attacked by two dogs who ganged up on him and he actually ran so far out of sight, I had to call several times before he came back. It took me 6 months to get him to feel safe with other dogs. As for my other one, he barks at other dogs and people but thatas his way of saying "look at me, I'm here!" and thats about it. Staffs are a fashion statement to the chav part of society and this is what gives them a bad name. They are rarely/never trained and so just work off instinct and when they do wrong are often bullied by their owners rather than shown how to do things right. As already mentioned "dangerous dogs" tag is annoying. I'm sure less than 2% of the population are violent, murderous and rapists so should we label all humans with the same tag? because this is how dogs are being labelled through no fault of their own. I'm sure all humans have the potential to be bad but it depends on their temperament and upbringing as to how they are and it's the same with dogs. Mike Edited by 540 V8 |
