Soul got hurt again...

[king2005]

My heart goes out to Soul! Boody Rotts, and Pits too, ought to band from the dog parks! I know that it's right to blame the owner not the breed but how many dogs/kids/cats have to be attacked before things change?!?!
I hope Soul is not too badly hurt and whoever is responsible for the dog that hurt her owns up for the vet bills.

ooo not a smart thing to say!!!!!!

I'm sorry this happened. But Drniblik you need to educate yourself about which breeds make up the most ercentage of bite cases in the U.S. each year. Pitts and rotts aren't at the top. That space belongs to shepherds and labradors and several other breeds. At my dog park the attackers are usually greyhounds, huskies, labradors, and boxers. I think people who have a pack of huskies should be banned from bringing them to the park together. Lets not get into blaming any breeds though, its owners who get a dog for a trophy and don't train them right that is the problem. I hope this doesn't make Soul's owner afraid to continue socializing their dog. They'll ruin the dog themselves if they don't get over this.

aggreed

I think people should have to get a special permit to be able to bring their dog(s) to a dog park. Each dog will be tested for dog/people agression & obidence (recall is the improtant one). If a dog fails due to nipping (not attacking, you know those painful love bites) then it shoud be required to wear a cage muzzle & allowed in the park... I think the above would solve so many issues & will be fun & safe for all dogs.
