It is always the owners fault. Dogs do their job. Loose, biters, whatever, all on the owner.
And yet, when it's all on the owner, one should still feel free to slay the dog as needed in self-defense, and be prepared to do so.

It might be the owner's fault. But the one doing the biting gets to be the one dying.

At work I carry a solid metal pen in each pocket. That way i can get to one if one arm is incapacitated.

Yes, you have to be prepared to protect yourself. Just saying, not the dogs fault.

Use the DIAD to defend yourself. That's what they teach us

I'm sure a little fufu never bit anybody.....
I got a letter for running to my truck, I had time, I slammed the door and the dog bounced off as I slammed it shut... bounced off. Guess I should have stood and fought it off with the diad, screw that. It was not coming to say Hello and get a biscuit.

I'm not a fan of those dogs but I agree the problem is with the owners. Some breeds need more care in their training. Above all their socialization.
i have never had one. ive met both kinds. I will never have anything but a doberman, and mine is 13 and there will be no more when she is gone. My last 3 were dobies. Sweet as can be, but have encountered mean ones. I cant raise them all. You can train an animal to guard, without training it to kill. But you have to be smarter than the dog.

Don’t worry he’s friendly
I did nothing and it caused a dog to bite my hand.
I’ve now defended myself with my boot, my diad, and packages.
I now have 8 residential stops I don’t deliver to anymore because they hate me and I’m fine with that.

Sorry, but I don’t care anymore.

All about the breeder. If they’re unscrupulous you’ll get a psycho. If not it’s on you to raise the dog right.
