True, I was making the assumption that the animal was not on the owner's property defending against an uninvited intruder but attacked someone there or elsewhere without being provoked.
I know you & I don't agree on Pits, we've had this discussion before. They should be treated like any other dog, if the law say's they have to be destroyed after the first attack. So be it.
You are right, we disagree. I believe the animal is dangerous and should be subject to the same rules as lions, tigers and bears. (Oh my)
I recently have put Rots in with Pit Bulls as dogs that are too nasty for the average person. I have a golden retriever I was taking to training class. Our instructor, a nice, knowledgeable man, loves Rots. He has a Rot that HATES his wife, and his wife has one the HATES him. He is involved with the Rot rescue and invites those dogs to attend his training class. I stopped going to the class because of the attitude of those Rots. They would snarl and growl and lunge at other dogs for no reason. They were also never allowed off-lead. There was also one Rot who was as sweet as can be. So, in my experience, 90% of Rots cannot be trusted. Who wants a dog that they have to treat like an alligator? I just don't get it.
