just need to vent

Hell, i have cur dogs that would fight with each other if they got off their chain in the yard. My AB has some kind of beef with my old BMC and they tie up any chance they get at the house. but you can load them in the truck together and go hunting and not a growl.

This does not sound like it has a thing to do with human aggression. I wouldnt judge how the dog will react to a 3 yr old by this incident for sure. But then i wouldnt let my 3 yr old run around my dogs unattended either. I have investigated 250+ dog bites a year for the last 11 yrs and pits aint the problem. people are the problem. they dont recognize the signs of human aggression before it escalates to a bite situation. Im no bunny hugger, I dont think a dog should ever bite a person (not including dogs trained to do so like police dogs) but people need to recognize the signs early on and nip it in the bud.

I personally wouldnt cull a dog for fighting on the yard. fighting in the woods.....culled a few for that!!
