To everyone saying that my sister is a bad dog owner, keep it in mind that the dog is not her's. The dog belongs to my mother and father.

New York State Law also states that now the dog will be labeled as a "Dangerous Animal" and if he unfortunately attacks again he will not only forced to be put down, but my parents would also get a $1,000 fine as well as 90-days in jail.

Food for thought in regards to those on the dog's side.


Also bear in mind that the dog has a habit of growling at not only my niece, but to my 10 year old cousin, my niece's 5 year old step brother and my 4 1/2 year old nephew.

Do we blame all of them too?

 

The dog is getting old and ever since his hernia surgery where he also had his testicles removed he has had a completely different personality. Sometimes he is a mush and sometimes he is a mean son of a bitch.

This could have been anyone's kid and not just my sister's.

Just want to be clear: I'm not on the dog's side, and I think he should be evaluated by Animal Control. I don't think it's responsible to keep him around kids until he's evaluated, and I thinkn you're right in not letting your daughter near him.

My post is more aimed towards people like Shio.

What happened yesterday was incredibly unfortunate and people would be surprised at what kind of stuff a child can get his/herself into in the blink of an eye.

A big mistake was made yesterday and my sister is absolutely a wreck and is beating herself up about it, but even so, she is not a bad parent. She has a useless boyfriend who doesn't do much and she had to watch multiple children on her own and while tending quickly to my daughter, her daughter walked outside into the backyard with a dog who unknowingly was going to snap for the first time in his 10 year life.

This happened just as my girlfriend arrived home from school and walked in the door. She saw my niece open that door, which is directly in view of the front doorway when walking in. They both yelled for her to get back inside, but of course, she walked outside.

 

It is just hard for some people to understand the situation when they weren't here and only get to read a post on a forum.
