Whahhhh, now dogs are supposed to be guarenteed childsafe???
Dogs are not toys, they are animals, they have brains, they have teeth, they have emotions and feelings, they can be neurotic, frightened, aggressive, joyful, gentle, etc....
The ultimate end of a consumer society. Dogs are not robots.
Sorry, for the rant, but I find it incredible that an animal shelter is expected to be responsible for a dogs behaviour, 'good with kids' is a best guess and nothing more.
I'm about to adopt a 'good with cats' dog, and I can tell you that dog will not be getting unsupervised access to my cats for a good while, and intro's will start on a leash. The adopter will expect no less from us.
