I just wanted to say that tonight, during 4 hours of my shift at the emergency clinic, I saw approximately 9 dogs. Of these dogs, all but 2 were small or miniature breeds. Of these small dogs, all but 1 of them were trying to bite just while being examined. Funny, the one that didn't was the one that was painful.
And the owners of all of these little dogs that tried to bite repeatedly, responded by praising their little dogs, and laughing because they were "feisty."
Why is it ok for a small dog to be nasty and ill-mannered, with an owner that rewards the bad behavior? And why is it that perfectly wonderful pit bulls are maligned at every turn, just because some of them are not socialized and taken care of?
Aggressive dogs are aggressive dogs, no matter what the size. I say that the owners should be penalized, regardless of the size of the dog.
