[quote=Anonymous]This dog is a risk. How or why it became a risk is irrelevant. If the owners don’t understand the dog’s current triggers and have a safety plan in place, bites will keep happening. I’ve had some experience with an aggressive rescue dog that I took to a behaviorist and ended up keeping. I would never, ever let that dog out of an enclosed space with adult guests in the house, let alone children. If your friends aren’t taking this seriously, this isn’t a house where you want your kids playing. I’m sorry. I know that creates an awkward social situation. However, if they’re in denial about risks to their own child’s wellbeing, they’re not in a place to adequately protect your kids. Besides which, anyone who refers to a dog being “raped,” doesn’t sound like they’re in a reasonable state of mind about this animal (unless the animal was assaulted by a human).[/quote]
