This was a sad story of the 4 year old being killed by the huge dog. She did not stand a chance.
Do not let success go to your head and do not let failure get to your heart.
Welsh corgis as a slay team to drag you down the pub.
That dog deserves to get eaten, straight up. Marinate and get the grill ready
Mastiffs were predominantly bred as guard dogs, and normal take to one person, other breeds
of dogs , Pit bull dog , presa canarios, large heavy boned breeds of dog, theses type of dogs are
not for first time dog owners.
When you consider owning a dog, think long and hard what traits you wish your dog to have,
the mistake made by many people they basically no fuck all about dogs.
Dogs that are popular at this moment are Staffs, they are pretty good with children but can
be very intolerant of other dogs.
Bull breeds in there nature, strong willed not the type of dog to be wondering the streets,
trouble is when a breed of dog becomes popular, they are bred anyhow because people
are out to make quick buck, great pity but it's the way of the World.
I have had the same dog for thirty years. Every time it dies I bring it to the pet shop, throw it on the counter and tell them to give me another just like it.
I had to jump in and shoot two views on a Rotti who weighed in around 140 Monday. Suspected a fracture in lower limb but no clear indicators, no muzzle. Very easy going and well trained dog but still full of that characteristic assertiveness and 'being in front' for lack of a better term. Great family pet..but would I ever consider a Rott or like breed in my home or around a child, no f'n way. An injured or fearful dog reacting or biting is one thing but to have the literal body and mass 4,5 times over should they turn is something you don't get a do over on. People lose respect for the dog...it's not a 'Horsey', it's not a toy, its as good as its owner or situation and should never be taken for granted or assumed!
My female attacks her brother sometimes real bad and I'm usually the trigger. I'm not sure spaying her will change he but she his do soon. They are Karelian bear dogs with a thousand years of history. She ironically looks like a Tahltan bear dog which is extinct and her brother who is twice the size looks Karelian. She was the runt of the litter and was born with a chip on here shoulder. She defines the phrase its not the size of the dog but the fight in the dog. She's a mean little bitch towards all dogs but loves people. A buddy of mine said I should let them finish the fight but I'm worried about vet bills because once they are at it..its appearance looks like a fight to the death. I wanted to purchase a Cane Corso before I got them but saved them instead.

My heart goes out to the girl and the family, it's just terrible.
But I will say I'm 100% against breed specific banning. I don't believe that dogs are inherently bad, but rather become that way through negligence from the owner.
There are certain dogs with a predisposition towards certain undesirable aggressive behaviours, and if you're going to own one of these breeds (pitbulls, rottweilers, dobermans, bulldogs, ect), it comes with a certain amount of responsibility.
I have a year old 100+ lb purebred rottweiler. Before I bought him, I did the research and knew what I was getting into, and from the day I got him I made sure I trained and socialized him and brought him up right. When I bring him to the dog park, people are always surprised at how friendly he is with people, kids, and other dogs.
The problem is, too many times you get complete MEATHEADS owning pitbulls, rotties, bulldogs, ect because they want to own the "tough" dog and they don't do the right things, and eventually the dog becomes a liability. They don't train or socialize the dog, and then the dog gets blamed when he acts out. It really is sad.
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.
