We had a former neighbor who walked her boxer on a very long lead. The dog would growl and bare teeth upon occasion. Several of us tried to talk to her, but she felt "safe" with the dog and would not listen. The short of it is that it finally bit a neighbor on the arm and leg. During the attack, she could not control the animal. The next day she had a muzzle on it. But it was too late. The bit neighbor called animal control (as well as the ER reporting the dog bite). Final result was that the dog had already bitten someone else and was euthanized. All because she was too dense to realize that the animal could and should have been trained. This happened in NJ, not TV.
