This is a tragic event with out a doubt. I have owned Rotties and Pits and I have small children. I am not a drug dealer nor a felon. I'm a single mom who adopted 2 children and to keep their piece of shit birth mother away I have a 6ft chain link fence and dogs that do not like strangers. I however would never leave my small children alone with a hungry puppy. These parents deserve to have their child taken away with out a doubt. I do disagree with the ban on Pitbulls. Granted if this dog has been with someone who trained it to be mean it should be destroyed. ANY dog regardless of breed should be destroyed if picked up from a home where fighting has occured.
I can see both sides of this coin. I had a beautiful red nosed pit bull that was as gentle to my children as any 'pet' would be expected to be. She slept on the couch and went bye bye with us and played lovinly with my children. When I was younger my cousin had a german sheppard that had been a family pet for years but one day her son was laying on the dog watching tv like he had always done, and the dog attacked him severely scaring his face for life. Do you think all German Sheppards should also be destroyed? Its not fair to the entire breed to be killed becuase something bad happened.
