A dog raised properly with love and compassion, that isn't starved and doesn't have some sort of a brain tumor will never, ever attack its owner. It doesn't matter what breed of dog. This unfortunate story is very easily explained: >Stephens had been living elsewhere and had left the dogs with her father. The dogs, which were previously indoor animals, were left in a kennel outside with little human contact, aside from a visit from Stephens about five times a week, Blackwood told reporters. This woman abandoned her dogs and left them in an outdoor cage. Unfortunately this attitude is common. Many people view their pets (and, in some cases, their children) as accessories or possessions, and treat them as such. A dog is a member of your family, like a child. You don't simply decide to "live somewhere else" and leave your dogs behind (let alone leaving them in outdoor cages without human contact) any more then you would decide to "live somewhere else" and leave your children behind in an outdoor cage. If you have dogs, or children, you make sure that the place you plan on moving can house your whole family. This is a very sad story, but not surprising given her behavior and treatment of her dogs which no doubt (rightfully) felt that she had abandoned them.
