this week a Preston lad has been killed by his dog , a Pit-bull type , is it not time that something is done about owning this type of breed and some others , it's seems to easy to own a dog that could be a danger to the owner and other people without knowing a thing about the breed or how to handle a dog

everyone says there dog is not a problem ,but you don't know 

I would not trust my dog 100% when around other people , you never know if for some reason she ( the dog) would take a dislike to someone and react 

a few of my customers who own dogs haven't got a clue how to bring up their pet , and in some cases have them for all the wrong reason

I doubt there are any breeds that have not had issues of some sort and I think its a mistake to think any animal is safe in all situations?   I remember being left alone quite young (under 10 I think)  when my grandmother went to the phone or something.  I started talking to her labradors and it upset them and they really barked at me - fortunately my instinct told me to shut up and sit still - I wouldn't have rated my chances if I had thought of leaving the room in a hurry.  Grandma was astonished when she came back!
