We have friends who just got a dog. It came from a friend of a friend who is having a kid and "doesn't have time for it". Anyway...The dog has already bitten 1 of their kid's friends and tried to bite 3 other people including my husband. Love them and all, but I won't be over there until the dog is gone. Not willing to put myself or my family in that kind of situation. And if I sent my child over there without having been told the dog had already bitten another child...Lord help me!!
It's completely irresponsible to have a dog who is bitting children in your home when you have young children and their friends coming and going. Sure it can be crated, but is that really any kind of life for the dog? I feel like it's selfish to keep the dog and have to lock it up, instead of letting it go back to the rescue group who can find a better fit for the dog. Like a family with no kids.
To each their own. Maybe with training the dog can change...but I wouldn't be willing to risk the safety of my own kids, or their friends until then. 4951
