Not like you, I Do not blanket aggressive dogs.
I have never met a dog I didn’t like!
You may have had bad experiences with dogs, but that doesn’t mean that the dogs you encountered were bad.It only means that you did not understand the dogs in your care.

Along with making general statements regarding all dogs, you also make assumptions based upon no evidence that was presented. I never said that I had bad experiences with any dogs.

YOU may have not met a dog YOU didn't like, but that is hardly evidence that there ARE NO bad dogs. As for me in the situation I commented on? The pit bull that attacked the 10 year old Black Lab (not my dog) was off leash in a neighborhood park with a leash law in force - the young woman who was there with the dog obviously didn't know how to control the dog, and should NOT have had it off leash. This pit bull engaged in a completely unprovoked attack against the Lab, taking her to the ground with it's mouth on the Lab's throat. There were minor puntures, but only because the Lab went completely docile while the Lab's owner stuck a stick down the pit bull's throat until it released her dog.

This was an incident I witnessed. There are untold numbers of incidents of unprovoked dog attacks against people and pets that I've read online and in the paper. You cannot tell me that these incidents are only due to the lack of knowledge about the dogs that attacked by those who have been injured or killed by them. That is simply BS.
