In reality if someone owns a guard dog for that purpose just to guard their property and keep strangers off then you have to expect that kind of reaction, the pit was doing what it was trained to do and that was to protect it's home. NO it is not right that a precious yorkie lost it's life, but at the same time again I must stress this I do not blame the pit, I blame the pits owner. It's obvious the dog was trained to react in that manner when something or someone entered it's territory. Maybe you could sue the pitbulls owner for training it's dog to be so vicious.
I hope I don't sound unsympathetic because trust me I would lose my mind if something happened like that to one of my yorkies like I said in a previous post I would probably end up in jail my yorkies are my kids I do not have kids I cannot have kids so trust me I feel your pain I could just imagine what you are going through, it was a bad dream I had the other night that had me up in tears hugging my baby saying over and over again thank god it was just a dream. I feel for you I do and it's sad that your daughter is feeling like it was her fault, truth is it isn't even the pits fault it is the owner of that dog that is responsible and I would try and do something to make sure the owner gets what they deserve, I would sue for emotional trauma to my child, and for the hospital bills I had to pay to try and save my baby, the owner must be made responsible. I just don't want my post to sound like I don't care because I do, I just know that alot of the yt'ers reaction would be put the pit to sleep or punish the pit somehow when again the truth is it wasn't the pits fault.
