Its a very sad situation that (I believe) could have been avoided. A lot people believe that when they get an APBT that it can just sit around in the house all day or tied up to a tree, but that is not the case. APBTs need to be exercised and they are indeed WORKING dogs and need to be in homes where they can be worked all the time.
I would bet my bottom dollar that this dog was meant to be a "house pet" or "outside dog" and never was given any consideration that he needed to be exercised. APBTs when not in the proper working home can and will more than likely become aggressive in nature and unfortunately that poor Maltese had to suffer. |
