I just don't trust any big dogs. My brother was attacted by a golden retriever when he was 7. It didn't have any lasting fear of dog when he grew up, which is very good. He loved dogs. He found a beautiful pit mix in a field on the way home from work one day. He brought it home and made her his pet and called her Goldie. She was a very sweet dog and got along with thier little Emmit, I don't know what he was,,, but he was a little guy. Goldie and Emmit did every thing together and my brother had no worries about the size difference. One night he heard the 2 barking at each other, which was normal,,,,, till Goldies bark was a bit different this time. My brother ran to see what was going on. He saw Goldie but not Emmit. My brother called out to him but he didn't come. He looked in the dog house where they both snuggled up together in all the time. There was Emmit, And he was not coming out, so my brother tilted the house and blood pourd out of the house. Emmit was still alive but barely. He rushed him to the vet but Emmit was not able to be saved.
This breed of dog can not be trusted in my book. They apear sweet and loving but they can turn at the drop of a hat.
