(5,946 posts)A gun needs someone to shoot it. Dogs attacking a person is either starved to insanity and abused in some way. You can make any dog vicious, but larger dogs do more damage, soft mouthed dogs do less damage (my "vicious" dog is soft mouthed, can't bite down hard on anything, can't eat rawhide).
I am very curious about the dog owners and what exactly they were doing with that dog.I see the mother lived in the house with the dog. don't know what to say about that They can kill this dog, but if they let the sons have another dog, they can create another vicious animal. My brother-in-law wanted to create a vicious protective dog, but it would still try to put it's 200 pound body into my lap and curl up. My mother in law fed him all the time, so he was never hungry, she would sneak him snacks all the time, and he could bark meanly, but there were too many softner people in his life and he was a big baby. Which is a good thing.
