I'm just saying, responsible dog owners do not make up for psychotic dogs.

I certainly don't blame you for feeling a bit hesitant around these dogs. I've seen many people affected by one bad experience with an animal. All the more reason to choose the particular animals that are easier to handle and then train them to be completely obedient. Then no one gets hurt even if the animal goes psycho. Really if that dog did that to you could that have been a responsible owner to keep it around his 3 small children? Or even better, a responsible parent?
