That link was on Staffiesrus earlier. Awful, isn't it? Me and mum were talking about it, saying he doesn't even look like a happy dog - especially not when his owner is invading his personal space.

no he really is not a happy dog anyone looking in at them can see that

I suppose a lot of people are just seeing a dog 'snuggled' with his owner. The eyes and overall posture, particularly in the ones of him sitting up, don't look at all relaxed though.

No, he's looking very 'stiff' and it looks like he's leaning away from her in one of the pics.

I hate saying that a dog is dangerous, but I'd say he is. He should, at the very least, be muzzled.

yes indeed he should be muzzled in public without a doubt!

Apparently the 'discomfort' of her dog wearing a muzzle (even though, if she habituates him to the muzzle properly, it should be fine) is worse than the discomfort of a child getting attacked.

Thats terrible and a major accident waiting to happen

I've no sympathy with her if she gets mauled, but what if there's a child there next time?

Agree with Dave, hopefully no children will be involved xx

Here's to hoping the negative press she's receiving will get her to change her mind about a muzzle.

I doubt it. She's blinkered.
