I think you had also better look at how serious a bite this was. Even a dog that is being teased has many options before biting - leaving is one of them, a warning roar is another.
Yes, you'd need to analyze quite a few factors. How old is the dog, how much is she truly trained and socialized, how old was the victim, what were the immediate consequences as far as the dog's perception. Are you prepared for this to occur again unless you practice vigilance at all times regardless of the circumstances. Once a successful bite occurs, unless it was met with immediate consequences, it is much more likely to reoccur. None of this has a simple answer. |
