Boy, 4, mauled to death by dog in his NYC home - Toshiba

The owners sound like morons...

The "German Shepherd" looks more like a Malinois to me though.

The world is a messed up place. Very sad tragedy for the young boy.

I agree it looks like a malinois.

Wow, hadn't seen that version. Does look like a Malinois...
The owners do sound like morons. So sad a little child had to pay with his life for that.

(OK, we make this dog as mean as possible by beating and abusing it, then leave it unsupervised with our toddler Really smart....the Malinois probably wasn't involved, because it was WAY smarter...

Yes, I am breed prejudice. Some breeds are just smarter and have better nerves, even under "attack"....GSDs are bred for sound nerves, a HUGE percentage of Pits are bred by people with this mentality "more viscious the better") I know this wasn't a pit, but it sure looked like 1, and I doubt these morons could afford a pure Cane Corso....

Malinois or Shepherd, would you want the dog trained by that guy?

People really tick me off. Mauled to death? Errrgh!

Here come the BSL people. I can hear them trotting out the legislation. I can hear them putting GSD on their list -- Guilty by association, even if it WAS a malinois, even if it did NOT participate.

And even if it had, dogs are dogs, and sometimes when there is violence in a pack, dogs do pitch in.

That's terrible, and must have been very horrific for the other kids that were in the room. Why would the mother leave her babies unsupervised knowing what the boyfriend was doing with them dogs. They should press charges against the man who was leaving his dogs, in that apartment.
