...and I bet that if they did any further investigation, they would find that the bulk of the attacks were perpetrated by chained dogs. Statistically speaking, chained dogs are responsible for the preponderance of attacks involving a fatality or an attack on a child. This is why it is imperative to educate the public regarding the chaining of their dogs. Fences or kennels protect not only the PEOPLE, but also the DOG and stop him/her from being put into a situation where they feel the need to guard their territory. We wont even discuss the times that children become entangled in the chain! Any dog can bite....be it a chihuahua or a GSD. Given the right set of circumstances, a dog always has the ability to revert to its instinct to protect itself. Anyone interested in finding out more about Chained dogs can contact me. I have a video entitled "I Am Unseen" which depicts chained dogs throughout this country and clearly shows the hell they endure. Dawn Restuccia --------------------------------- Don't get soaked.
