This is very disturbing considering they are called man's best friend..
Some still retain their predatory instinct and if we display prey behaviour it could trigger an attack.
Other dog breeds display aggressive behaviour and attack without warning .
Pit Bull Terriers, Rotweillers and others are much more prone to attack people and young children with fatal consequences.
These pets have attacked and sometimes killed other dogs, other dog owners, and even their own owners.
Dogs generally are faithful companions, loyal, affectionate and ask very little in return other than food,water and a comfortable home
Most dogs accept their owner without question and if you love it and treat it right you are it's world.
They are very loyal and will protect their owner with everything they have regardless of their size.
Perhaps our government over here should take the lead (however painful to owners) and introduce a total ban on the more aggressive breeds.?
