Okay, so I reread your post #108.

So education is what prevents a big, bad powerful dog from killing and dismembering/eating the victim? Yeah, I have a better idea- the deceased woman should have carried a fighting caliber handgun with her as she walked her “puppies”. That way she could have attempted to “educate” them as soon as they turned on her and before they bit off her face and tore out her throat....

Why do folks think that educating the owner would have made any difference? You can’t control such animals once they decide. No matter what you think, these attacks are barely containable even by folks with great physical strength and often (lethal) weapons.

Don’t get me wrong, I am not focusing on Pit Bulls- basically all dogs even little ones can be dangerous. Children are, as your articles support, most often the most at risk both because they do not understand aggressive behaviors and more importantly because they do not have the slightest chance to defend themselves.

To me, responsible pet ownership means 100% of time the animal must be under the owners’ control or else they are a menace and a risk to the safety and peace of others.

Still, I see no solution in your post. The only thing of merit in this sad situation is the dogs did not kill some innocent third party.
