Re: Unbelievable - Pregnant Woman Killed By Dogs!
Can I put my opinion up.Owners choose dogs (and no, I haven't one myself) and although several events recently have been tragic, I do think that under certain circumstances, a dog is not a good idea, particularly those known to be of 'uncertain temperament' and in that I include nervous/highly strung animals as well as the publicised breeds
The outcome has sometimes been shown to be tragic as we're all aware.

Re: Unbelievable - Pregnant Woman Killed By Dogs!
Me personally? I would never own a Pit. I know, I know.. Pitbull enthusiasts claim they are gentle and sweet and that meanness has to be taught.. BUT... it's a known fact that certain traits go with certain breeds. Like the herding dogs.. they WILL herd.. and chase cars. Retrievers will point and retrieve... hounds will hunt. Dogs have triggers, and one never knows what will set off a trigger. Pits can be aggressive to other animals.. in this case the seizure was the trigger for the attack directed at a person. I have cats and small dogs. A Pit... no matter HOW gentle someone claims, would not be trusted in my home.I have adopted many shelter dogs.. They always try to get me to take a pit.. or "Staffie" or AMStaff.. aka American Staffordshire terrier. no matter what you call it... it's a pitbull IMO.. I say.. no.. no pitbulls and they look at me like I'm being unfair.. I don't think so.

Re: Unbelievable - Pregnant Woman Killed By Dogs!
Audrey, I agree with you totally. Dogs have certain traits as you say and when I lived in a rural community, there was one village where you knew that you had to be careful, otherwise you'd be 'herded' by a sheepdog.On the same topic, I see two sheepdogs locally who are walked as 'pets' and who strain at the leash when passed by a car - they're not suited to their environment.

I have an Australian Shepard.. also known as the Australian cattle dog.. (not Australian at all.. but from Western USA) He is impossible to walk out on a leash where cars are around.. He wants to chase them.
