Great family pet..but would I ever consider a Rott or like breed in my home or around a child, no f'n way.
    It really is how you raise them, I've had no problems with my Rotti thus far with people or children.

    I think the big problem is rotties and pitbulls in particular attract the macho, "gangsta" wanna be types who aren't doing the responsible things. Because these are big dogs with massive stopping power who can do real bad things when they aren't brought up right.

    Mine is a great family dog, gets along with kids, my siblings, my folks, ect.
    I get what your saying bean, but i must say this is sometimes the typical answer from a caring dog owner. (Like yourself)

    The only issue is all the other hundreds of stories we dont hear about and some we do hear about from caring owners.

    I could happily get a pitbull or rottie or that huge type panther monster in the picture above, but only if it lived with me and me only.

    No matter how much you think you know an animal or love an animal there is nothing from stopping it from turning at any moment!

    Every creature on this earth has free will. One of Gods greatest gifts

    Only takes a few seconds for permanent scarring or death.

    How would you justify a situation if your dog did snap next week and attacked alittle girl?

    Well there's no way I would try to justify my dog attacking a little girl. I would be devistated and would blame myself 100%. One of the big things I had to do early on was to socialize him not just with people but with little kids and he's always been great with them because of it.

    But a "caring" owner and a "responsible" owner aren't necessarily the same thing. A lot of people THINK they are doing the right things out of ignorance, but in reality they're not giving the dog the obedience it needs.

    Dogs aren't complex creatures. Just like with humans, you can trace any action back to a source. Like when a serial killer pops up, they have all sorts of reasons or warning signs that they look at after the fact. I believe if I could go and see the situation where the dog mauled someone and see how the dog was treated at home, I could pick out sure fire mistakes and warning signs. Sometimes it's obvious, sometimes it might be very subtle. But if you're going to own a "power breed" (rottie, pitbull, ect) then you really need to be extra careful.

    Do you think most of these "gangsta" and meathead types are really plunking down the money for training? Or making sure they are socializing their pups every day with people and children? Bringing the dog to the dog park to meet other dogs? Taking hours out of their day to obedience train their dogs and reading up on the psychology of dogs so they can spot warning signs and potential problems?

    Or is it more likely that they use the dog as a showpiece, or they want a guard dog who will tear apart any intruder. A dog that they leave out in the backyard all day and then wonder why he doesn't deal with strangers very well.
