I have been attacked by a chow/husky mix. I was bleeding profusely after the attack and was very shaken from everything. I had no control over whether or not the dog was to be put down but I know that I wouldnt have put it down. I'm no expert on dog behavior but I think that I was probably doing something to provoke it ( i was pretty close , making quick movements and being loud ). When you say 5 months old it makes me think that they were just being puppies? I have a friend who had a litter of pitt puppies and they were VERY rough when they played with each other. I wouldnt like to see them put down as they are very young still and they can be trained to exhibit more calm attitude and to not be so rough. Just my opinion though. I agree you should calm down first and then make a decision.
