So every dog that has ever bitten a child only bit an abusive child that had mental disorders ???? Oh PLease

I tell you what, going back a few years ago, we were visiting my Mother and heard noises at the back/end of her back garden the day before bonfire night. When we (myself/Mother/OH) investigated 3 lads were at the end of her garden torturing a neighbours cat We knew all 3 kids that lived locally : 1 had just been moved up a year in my Son's school, as academically he was very bright and the other 2 were in the Local Scout group, strange thought that NONE of them had ANY mental disorders and ALL were very intelligent young kids (8/10/11) knowing RIGHT from WRONG !!!

BUT, tell that to the cat that they duct taped to a tree after shaving off it's fur and RAMMED a Rocket (firework) up it's privates LUCKILY for the cat, they never got the chance to light it, but I can bet you a pound to a penny, that cat would have attacked them and scratched them to bits trying to defend itself.

That Cat 'SURVIVED'.............luckily he wasn't taken to a Vet who holds your morals, or she would be DEAD !

Right I'm going to bed as I've got to get up at 6 to take my lot for their walk.

Good night folks.

Unfortunately though rescues only have certain resources.
A rescue near me gave a rotti a year of assessment by experienced people (Mike Mullen being one of them). They deemed the dog was too aggressive to be rehomed. Rather than let it spend the rest of it's life in the kennel, it was PTS. I wouldn't say that this was wrong. Some dogs are just not rehomeable due to their aggression. While I agree dogs are not born bad. I think some dogs are pushed too far and something clicks that cannot be mended and no matter how hard one tries, they can never be turned.

Why are you so aggressive malady? You take things and add bits. I said "many" not "all" please read what I posted befor adding bits in your replies.

Night Colin.

Once again for the ones that are duh, A life is a life

The aggressive smilies were clearly directed at the boys committing a hideous crime against a defenceless animal, so no need for the rolling eyes............. every else managed to see who the aggression was aimed at !

Edited to add : I never added anything to what you said, I simply replied to your post.

Pardon? there is only me who had replied to your post, so how did you come to that conclusion?

You said
You clearly did NOT read what I had posted, I never said every child, did I?

LOL talk about a drama queen who said the little girl is scared for her lifenow you are just trying to cause trouble where there is none to be caused.
This happened many years ago the little girl is all grown up has no problem with dogs or me
she didnt have horrific injuries as someone else suggested
she had one bite that required 50 stitches And my dog was never exposed to children again,he has since passed away
he was My first dog and I Knew nothing about dogs as the saying goes you live and learn my latest dogs all love kids, I dont train them they dont do any agility obedience or anything else they are my pets/children
so back up lady and read the thread properly before you post I think I might have had to tell you that before

I missed where KCjack said that, but I agree with you here BJ, my dogs dont get any sort of formal training either, they are taught stay and leave, thats about it. They all are very fond of children too.
