OK, I overstated the case. But if you had two “friendly” pit bulls attack you while walking your dog in the past month, as I have, you’d sing a different tune. Your dog may be friendly in YOUR enviros, but don’t trust him outside of it. I’m sure that the woman who “owned” that mauling chimp thought that there was nothing to fear as well... Bob
I'll trust my dogs as I see fit and I suggest you do the same.

Do you think that dogs running loose are to blame for their actions, or do you think the owners should be blamed, since their irresponsibility led to the dogs being outside running loose in the first place? By the way, when a dog is running loose, you can assume that the owner is probably doing a lot more to damage the dog’s temperament than just letting it run around. Same goes for those who chain their dogs or keep them intact. Experts all agree these are the reasons for dog attacks, not dog breeds. This is why there are 13 thousand dog attacks daily in this country (even though we only hear about a couple- the ones involving pit bulls). There are over 50 breeds of dog that have taken human lives, and the vast majority of them involve the same type of owners/situations, according to the CDC.
