I agree to that if ANY overly aggressive dog killed another dog...

But the question is "IF" that aggression is hardwired or not...

I'm of the belief that are very few "bad dogs", just bad owners... Just as there are very few "bad people", just bad parents... Are there exceptions? Most certainly.

The previous owner of my home had two large dogs that he refused to keep on leash. They terrorized the neighbors who were riding their bikes and other dogs out on walks with their owners.

He even got into a physical altercation with someone at the dog park, resulting in assault charges... He was the poster child for being a "bad owner"...

Lest I repeat myself, the "previous" owner... He no longer lives in TV...
