In ANY dog attack it is almost NEVER random and almost NEVER (at least to a dog) unprovoked. When dealing with dogs we don't already realize when the things we do, our body posture, our energy, might provoke an animal because in THEIR form of communication that is a threat. Anyone who actually knows and understands dogs can see the signs, but the average person, even a dog owner, may not realize when they are threatening or challenging a dog. Something as simple as eye contact at the wrong time and the wrong state of mind or emotional sense, and it can be a reason. Kids are most often the victims of dog attacks, if their parents don't understand these things, how can kids know? And because they are lower to the ground on more on a dog's level, they are even MORE vulnerable. It's often more about the human than we care to admit.
