    I'm not sure if you are calling out the breed here or just asking for an opinion, so please clarify. My opinion is that animals are just that animals. Is it sad that someone died, yes, however weather is a dog, cat, snake, horse whatever, it isn't the animals fault. An snake is a wild animal, they are not domesticated, so demonizing a snake for constricting something is a little rediculous. On that same note even though dogs are "domesticated" they are still dog and are a product of their owner. I have a pitbull that I rescued. She was a bait dog, she came to me with burns from cattle prods and bite scars, she was thrown in a yard to die, now she is the sweetest dog I have ever owned, I would never hesitate to let my son play with her. So yes in my opinion I don't even need to read the article it is the owners fault. I also have a Wolf Hybrid that was beaten and left in a dumpter in East LA, he came to me terrified. He chomped my arm once because he was scared and I overstepped my bounds. COMPLETELY MY FAULT. Its never the breed that is the problem! It's the owners.
