I actually read the article about the woman who's arm was lost, and it actually said that she let the rottie out of her kennel, then turned her back on her to clean out the other dogs cages. Now, call me stupid, but surely a trained person should never turn there back on a dog they do not know, especially when they are in a kennel, and the newspaper did not explain why the dog was there. It could have been seized by police after raiding a criminals house. It may have been there as the owners hadn't trained it well enough, we don't know.

What also got to me in that report was the way the newspaper printed such things as,"The blood-thirsty beast savaged and tore the flesh from her arm, with a sickly crunching sound." No word of a lie, it was words to those effect. I could go into paragraphs how my opinion of rotties has changed since I got one, but that's another thread!!...
