What I said was that I do NOT think this is the same as the Congo case and 
you can bet that if a dog came after my child he would not be around to go 
after another. I think that there are FAR too many irresponsible owners out 
there. That would be why insist that anyone getting a pup from me attend 
obedience classes. It doesn't mean that it will cure everything but it can 
help give a good base and its purely neglectful that this owner did not even 
consider classes until she was in this situation. I also wonder as did 
another why the dog was able to run up to this woman loose. I am not an 
advocate of putting dogs to sleep but put yourself in the situation of 
having to protect your child aginst a dog coming at them. I could really 
care less if it was the 1st offence wasn't this child an infant? How bad 
would that have been if he had connected? Wouldn't that have been terrible 
if the child was mauled? There was not any mention of anyone doing anything 
to the dog at all. Congo was protecting his owner this dog was just out to 
bite someone by the sounds of it.
