Should ANY dog that bites a human be put to sleep ?

I'd like to hear any opinions on this, is there a case where the dogs don't deserve to die for biting ?
the obvious one would be of course if the dog was provoked and bit then its not the dogs fault, but would biting once mean it would be a learned action, so likely to bite again ?

No , for example if a dog is in it's own house and a burglar comes in then no way should it be PTS for biting .
Of course the law may say differently but that is my opinion .
There are other examples too

........No, each case will have its own triggers, rarely does a dog bite just because its nasty,

more often than not, its been badly treated, backed into a corner, ill, in pain, left chained up, the list is endless.

Most of the human aggressive dogs I see have been made that way by people,

spot on there Shona x

No it should be based on case by case not just OMG that dog has bitten someone.
All circumstances are different x

No, Spencer has fear aggression and Ians been bitten by accident by him.

I don't think so, I believe there are a list of things that could trigger a dog to bite. For example being tormented, beaten, kicked, ill, in pain, thats just my opinion.

I always think its a shame when any dog is put to sleep for biting. I imagine in almost all cases the dogs are provoked, or there is a medical reason behind it...

I think having the dog PTS should be the last resort after testing for any medical/psychological problems that may have triggered it

Not a chance, dogs bite for all sorts of reasons and all sorts of situations and these should all be taken into account when decideding whats best.

Case by case, IMO! Kali has never bitten, but I have seen him put in a position where he wanted to have a go (but didn't). A "yoof" was stirring him up with a stick, so he snarled. The yoof increased the stirring, until I clouted him (the yoof) round the ear with another stick. Then my pal gave him a good punching. In the end, I think the yoof would have preferred getting bitten
