i think some of you lot need to give your heads a good wobble.
me, i hate the breed, in fact i hate most terriers, in general, they have an aggressive nature and yes, im fully aware that its not all terriers that go around eating kids, its the minority that get them the bad name, but its in there nature never the less. When did you last hear of a poodle or a retriever eating a kid????
people are entitled to there oppinion as are you, no matter what it is, so belt up, if people dont like the dogs, thats up to them.
If it is real, it really does show you how clever that dog was, alright, it probably got a little pissed being spiked once, maybe even the first 10, but you really would have thought it would have the sense to stop before it got to that kind of level. UNLESS it was in a blind rage, then, that just goes to prove that damn things dangerous, doesnt it

before you go making statment like that, perhaps you ought to put your brain into gear before the fingers,
how do you know he hasnt had a friend or family member suffer an attack by one of these dogs???
i know a little lad thats had an attack, and what a mess he has to live with for the rest of his life, english bull terrier, they should ne be allowed to breed them in my book, put them down and erradicate the breed if people cant look after them, goes for many other breeds too

Secondly, this would have been a very quick incident, the porcupine does not release a quill / spike / needle one at a time, the dog has probably mauled the porcupine, and the porcupine has triggered it's defences and unloaded all of it's spikes in one or two goes. The quills detach from the porcupine very, very easily, are very sharp, and lodge in the target, making them effective as a deterent. This would not have been a comdey scenario where the dog gets stuck once, goes back, gets stuck twice, goes back, gets a third, etc etc etc......
Thirdly, I used to have a Golden Retriever, and he was a great family dog. I now have two Rottweilers, they are a pair of great family dogs. Either of these three dogs could attack humans if I taught them to...... I won't, so they won't........

I don't wish to add petrol to a fire, but I don't believe that all dogs arrive in this world without aggression. Aggression can be taught that is for sure. An evil human can make even a placid dog into a monster. However, there are some breeds that are more likely to be aggressive that others, and some of those breeds are also unfortunately capable fighters. The combination can be nasty.
For me its a hard call, as if you look after a fighting dog well they are normally well behaved, but the potential is always there. My friend has a fighting dog some strange Jap thing that I cannot pronounce. He loves it, nearly always gentle, but some rare days its just in a bad mood. I find that a little scary

Dogs are a predator, Agression is inate, it can be brought out by training or it can be nearer the surface due to breeding or just the individual dog, it can also be brought on by stress or illness.
You can have a non agressive Pitbull or a Chihuahua with a bad attitude.
The one in the picture looks kind of like an English Bull Terrier to me anyway, I am also wondering what a bald Porculpine looks like, in the case, bald, and smug !

And your point of some breeds are more likely to be "aggressive" than others is true, but only because idiots will buy specific "hard" breeds and train them to be aggressive....

no dog has an aggressive nature, you think, they used that breed for fighting for a reason
yeah, sure you could could train aretriever to attack people, but it would be a lot harder to train than it would a terrier. Totally aggree with some of the tyoes of people buying them, but again, there getting them for a reason.
and your point about the spine release, look at the pictures, that was done either by several animals, or several times by 1 animal, look at the angles lol
either way, very stupid dog, probably why some say throw it in the canal,

And I suppose all teenagers instinctively just start wearing hoddies and mugging old ladies.
Hardly the same thing...........
As a responsible owner of 5 EBT's for the last 15 year's and other breeds mainly all rescue, I can say from a plateau of experience that EBT's in particular are no more or less aggressive than any other breed, only when low life idiots encourage such behaviour.
As you brought it up Great White attacks on humans are largely due to cases of mistaken identity as the staple diet of the Great White is seals, which look undeniable like people in black dry suits and flippers.
