We're not in the States (thanks God), people have a right not to be attacked by a dog or being shot even if they are on your property.

However, it sounds like the person your dog bit gave an empty threat. In any case, they wouldnt just come and shoot your dog. They would take him away, it would be assesed by a vet and it would be put to sleep if it was though the dog was a danger to the general public. Exactly the same as in the UK.

I was watching the news on La Sexta last night and they talked about the procedure I just described.

There have been a number of children killed or injured by pit bulls recently, so this is making the news

My word, is this the forum for heartless fascists?!

What about the child burglers who rob so they and their families dont starve to death. Do they deserve to be shot too? What about the child who has grown up in a family of criminals who knows no other way of making a living?

Do they are deserve to die?!

I didn't say they deserve to die. But to be completely frank, I really wouldn't care if they did have a 'work related accident' resulting in death. And the 'child' in question was 16.....more adult than child in my book.

(BTW - "children" stealing to feed their poor starving families sounds more like a Dickens novel than reality! Stealing to feed a drug habit, well that sounds more realistic to me.)

That sounds closer.

Quite a few deliverymen and paperboys will agree with this.

I’ve got a dangerous dog and I have him for a reason. We live in a high crime area and despite all my security measures, we were attacked seven times in three years. The last attack was life-threatening.

We should have left, but we have a beautiful home and decided to fight. Our dangerous dog entered our lives and has saved us for the past seven years, along with some other security measures I was forced to take.

I’m not bothered if he bites burglars, and if I get there in time it might be me that does the time.
