A lot of people might say the same of my Shepherd. They are a known dangerous breed of dog. Insurance companies don’t want Shepherds in the house.
But ever since I have been a dog owner, I have always considered myself responsible for everything that they do.
I’m the one who has to make sure she is safe and everyone else is safe from her, even though I know she’s not dangerous.
I have already had to put one dog down for biting. Luckily I was the victim.
But I am not going to harbor an animal that I know to be vicious.
There we can agree. I wouldn’t own a pit bull either but I think someone willing to properly control one shouldn’t have to answer to me or the government.
In this particular case I believe that an owner of a pit-bull knows or should know that the animal is dangerous and the attack is the result of criminal negligence.
