A toddler tried to pet a sleeping Cocker Spaniel and was bitten in the face. The wound required six stitches to close.

A 3-yr-old English Mastiff will be killed after he attacked a 7-yr-old boy. The victim had opened the door, which hit the dog. The dog responded by biting the child, causing 3 dozen stitches worth of damage.

Poor Sweetie, fighting for her life. And people think Pit Bulls are the ones doing the damage. Just look at this list.

I feel awful for all of the children who were bitten; and worse for the woman with the BC who didn't know her dog was taken away to be killed. And even worse for the woman who was trying to get the funds together to do the right thing, just have her dogs killed. And she wasn't even responsible for them being loose in the first place.

It's so freaking messed up, isn't it?
