She got a rescue dog a year or so ago which was a big Staffy cross,it had had a rubbish life with previous owners,being caged all the time even when owners were in. Anyway it was obviously too big for her and she caged it a lot too,even had it on a lead in the house (I saw all of this).One evening I had a phone call to say she had rung the rspca and was having it collected and put down! When I asked why she said it had bit her dd 3 on the hand as she was pulling it's ears! My dh is a dog lover like me and bred staffies for a while,he says those type of dogs wouldn't just bite 'a bit' they would warn you or do a lot of damage.For what its worth i saw the childs hand the next day and was no mark.Im really worried that if she gets another the same thing will happen again.Am I being silly and nosey or would you say this is justified worry for future dog?
