How many car accidents occur daily? Hundreds? Regardless.. how many of the stories make it to the papers?
But when one plane crashes it's all over the news and everybody panics about flying.
There are hundreds of dog attacks occuring all of the world on a daily basis and guess which ones make the paper?
I work with dogs on a daily basis. Every breed every day. A dogs behavior isn't bound by his breed. It's his owner who determines his success or his demise.
There are dangerous pits. There are dangerous poms. But luckily for those aggressive poms their jaws are pretty weak so they get off easily. Sadly, at the end of the day no matter what anyones opinions are guess who suffers?
The only way to truly weed out irresponsible owners is to require testing. CGC testing should be a requirement for owners of dogs deemed 'dangerous'. The Canine Good Citizens test is an excellent way to determine if the owner and their dog are both well trained.
