[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]There was this episode of This American Life where they covered Ira Glass's dog and it was just extremely sad.  They couldn't have people over and the dog regularly attacked them.  Honestly it was horrifying, they were prisoners in their own home but also put people at risk living in NYC with this dog.

I also read an article about someone who adopted a dog during thr pandemic and the shelter hadn't been clear about the dog's bite history so the owner had to have the dog put down after some incidents.

We have to remove the stigma from behavioral euthanasia.  People will insist the owners haven't tried enough but a dog that's attacking people and other animals simply has to go.

[b]People who knowingly keep aggressive dogs also need to be criminally liable when their dogs attack people. [/b] There are just too many stories of delivery drivers or a neighborhood kid getting attacked.[/quote]

I absolutely agree.  My housekeeper’s six year old grandson is in the ICU right now with injuries to his trachea and aorta following an attack by a neighborhood dog.  That dog went for the throat.  I cannot believe the owners aren’t going to jail.
