If the other comments are true, then this animal died because of its owner's actions. She should have maintained him in a controlled environment instead of letting him be in the position to hurt the neighbor. If one of my pets bit either of my children, they would no longer be in my possession, especially if my kids got infected because of the bite. Not only is this woman an irresponsible pet owner, she seems to be an irresponsible parent. I am sorry, but my children and fellow human beings come before any animal.

Also, this animal had already been given a second chance and even a third. How many times would he have been allowed to bite someone before he had enough chances?
