I saw that story on a non-LJ forum and I was shocked. Who, WHO lets a 40 pound girl play unsupervised with a 70 pound dog?

But of course, Jessy (the dog) isn't a pit bull, so of COURSE she couldn't be DANGEROUS!

OMG, Goldens are totally starting to strangle people instead of being vicious and ripping off their heads! It's a conspiracy!

dea_noctis February 3 2006, 21:06:08 UTC

They're getting wise, man. We better watch our backs. *somber nod*

kikayume February 3 2006, 21:07:29 UTC

It's always the Goldens you have to watch out for. *nods knowingly*

dea_noctis February 3 2006, 21:13:26 UTC

Srsly! That friendly furry face is only a disguise for one twisted and sick personality.

Next thing you know, it'll be akitas with ninja stars.

Labs with sniper rifles!

kikayume February 3 2006, 21:21:14 UTC

Poodles with cyanide!

dea_noctis February 3 2006, 21:23:18 UTC

Beagles with mustard gas!

Bassets with grenades!

dea_noctis February 4 2006, 00:50:13 UTC

D00d, we are, liek, totally doomed.

naw- bassets will just sleep in the middle of the hallway late at night and trip you.

A grenade would require too much activity.

Pitbulls are still much stronger than goldens. I'm not trying to downplay the possibility of danger involving any animal, especially ones that I do not know, in fact I always do my best to cautious around any dog regardless of breed. But lets just say I'd rather take my chances with retreivers any day of the week, and that I tend to avoid pitbulls as much as possible. The neighborhood and surrounding area I live in and/or nearby is full of people who are highly irresponsible twits who keep pitbulls and don't fix them, and there is just something about that breed that just attracts idiots, particularly of the meth addict kind here and in other parts of Seattle.

Sorry, but just out of experience I can't be as sympathetic as I used to be anymore.

I can't be sympathetic towards anyone who leaves their large dog unsupervised with a small child, regardless of the breed.

I get the whole thing about bad experiences with dogs and their stupid owners. My main point, though, was that people should never assume that a dog will be totally safe around a kid (or anybody, for that matter) just because it's not a "dangerous" breed.

Out of experience, I'd never trust a Retriever just because it's a Retriever. After being attacked by Labs, Goldies and Flats, I do NOT trust any of them without knowing them.

It is unwise to assume so much about a strange dog based on breed alone.

Also, there are more Pit Bulls in my area than anything else and I have yet to encounter a problem with them. But time and time again I have to deal with out-of-control Retrievers. Irresponsible owners own every breed and they are what make dogs dangerous - not breed.
