I believe Rifleman1776 is right on the mark. There's something in all dogs that can just snap, and they do an unimaginable thing. I understand the emotional tie to the animal that would make an owner think that their animal could never be vicious, but I believe that's not realistic. They are domesticated, but they act differently with other animals vs. people. To top it off, they are extremely inbred, which contributes to their potential mental instability.
