[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Come on.  People don't have natural instincts when it comes to dogs because they are pets.  They are pets that are so heavily personified in our culture that it's no surprise people treat them like they treat children.  As much as you people want to say it's "common sense", it's not.  If all you ever knew was your neighbor's friendly golden retriever, or your own sweet dog, maybe you would make a dumb mistake with someone else's animal.  Sure, it was a mistake, but it is cruel to say it was [b]stupidity [/b]on her part.

I am an animal lover, I have pets, but I never forget that they're animals and not people.  Can't say the same for a LOT of pet owners.  [/quote]

I don't think anyone is saying that it's stupid.  Just that it was preventable and not a case of an animal just "snapping" out of the blue.[/quote]

Sigh, not to beat a dead horse, but a few posters definitely have alluded to her foolishness and her being "dumb enough" to get that close to a strange animal.  That's what I was responding to.[/quote]
