I wasn't gonna comment because I don't want my anti-dog to show.
Truth is, I have never owned a dog, but I've known many in my lifetime. I'd estimate that about 95% of the dogs I've encountered have been good dogs. And 5% are just mean. Those mean dogs should be kept inside, or on a chain, or behind a very secure fence. If they get out and attack people who are not provoking them, they should be taken from their owners and put down.
Our next door neighbor has three dogs. For a while there, they (actually it was probably their kids) were very negligent and their dogs would get out and be running free around the neighborhood. Two of the three dogs were good dogs. One was a mean SOB that would bark and growl at us in our own yard. Or if we pulled in to our driveway, which was on the opposite side of our property from the neighbors land, the fucking thing would bark and growl at us. All its body language saying that it was going to chomp our asses if we got out of the car. Well, after this went on for a while and we kept complaining to the neighbors, they are finally good about keeping it secure. So a mean dog is just fine if the owners are responsible. But if the owners can't be responsible, then the dog should be taken from them. And put down, it it's attacked anyone.
