Certain breeds are just more aggressive by nature whether they are trained or not. Even small breeds could be aggressive, they just can’t do the damage that big breeds are capable of.

At least it wasn’t a third party like a child or grandparent walking down a public street.

Hmm 🤔 2 family dogs attack in less than 24hrs wtf is up

[CastorTroy]

I bet those were not golden retrievers

[kittysysagal]

I'll never own a pit bull or a Rottweiler or any breed with a "bull" in it.

Bet it was a family argument that got physical and the dog was doing what a dog dose and protects

[chrisbroguiere]

Sad when an animal has to pay for what is usually a bad owner in this situation.

[haroldbranch]

not known why it attacked. uhh, you get a viscous dog that attacks people so it makes you feel safe, but the dog attacks your own family.. well jeez.. it's kinda what the does, it's a viscous attack dog

Whats up with all these DOG attacks?.. ive heard like 3 of them in just 1 week ? Its weird..

[Claire-dr]

That’s what you get for owning dogs that are unpredictable get a poodle and you won’t have any problems. Dump people.

[trussmonkey]

Prime example of people who want a dog but have no idea how to train the animal, socialize it or treat it properly.

[SirenASMR_]

I have seen like 5 different dog attacks in the last 3 weeks. Probably some type of weird frequencies happening

[BladeBrown]

Now watch the dog apologists make excuses in the comments.

[AXAsylum]

Dogs don’t attack owners for no reason

[Krmyas]

Bullmastiffs are BIG and strong dogs…. Ouch

[LongBeachCityCAJoe]

Laughing at all the people who treat these animals as if they are humans, or "family".

[lakemiwater]

ppl get dogs tbey CANT HANDLE ARE NUTS

[terencem]

Don't f with the bull if you don't want the horns.

Dog died, at least wasn’t arrested and thrown in jail . R.I.P

Moral of the story, if your going to get a powerful breed as your family dog, you better spend the time to properly train and social that dog. If you don’t have that in you DO NOT get a powerful breed like a mastiff
