[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It's all these blame the victim types that probably leave their damn dogs unattended outside!  So arrogant.[/quote]

Not sure where you're getting that.  You sound angry and ready to jump the gun.[/quote]

Yes.  I am angry at irresponsible owners that are doing dogs more harm than good.  Don't blame other people when your dog hurts someone.  9 out of 10 times you could have prevented it.  In the end it's the dogs and other people that suffer because of you.[/quote]

I don't know if you are the same extreme poster who thinks all pit's should be euthanized, but I seriously cannot understand this point of view- who are you talking to? I know my dog (not a pit or any other so called "killer breed") has not and more than likely will not snap and hurt someone. I don't know if maybe you had a bad experience with dogs and you are taking it out on the people of this forum but you should maybe get into some therapy to get over your anxiety.[/quote]

No, I'm not that poster.  And please don't gaslight me just because YOU feel threatened by my post.  I am talking to people who think the anchorwoman should be blamed for what happened here. I shudder to think about those people owning dogs. [b] Don't leave your dog unattended, don't let people or other dogs invade you dog's space.[/b]  If you do leave your dog unattended, or allow a stranger to get too close, it's nobody's fault but yours if someone gets hurt.  Dog ownership 101.  I don't see why you are being so defensive?[/quote]

I am not threatened by your post, I just find it way over the top. Clearly in a perfect world all dog owners would be able to stop incidents like this from happening, and I don't disagree with your bolded statement. But I know of an incident that happened years ago between two friends (now former friends). One of these friends was warned about the other friends dog and its temperament. This person still chose to get in the dogs face anyway- even with the owner right there the attack happened before an intervention was possible. The injured party needed plastic surgery to have their lips put back on. The dog, who was in it's crate at the time of the incident was not bothering anyone but had to be put down immediately. The dog's family offered to pay medical bills and the like, but the "victim" needed a new car instead- sued and won. Things are not as black and white as you would like to think they are, some people who are victims of dog attacks do share the blame.
