We just had a case (in iowa) where the grandparents pitbulls mauled and killed a toddler which was obviously no threat to the dogs. The animals in question had no history of attack or violent behavior; they simply killed a child because they could. I also knew a sliver german shepard that my uncle had. The dog never showed any abnormal behavior but he attacked my cousin one day when he came home from school for no reason. If any of my dogs ever did something like that , I would kill them myself. Domesticated.....or not, they are still canines and will act like their wild counterparts!
And the reason a person should have a dog is for it's abilities as an animal, not for looks. People that like pretty dogs, usually can't handle them. In fact, most spoiled dogs, especially the small ones, are more likely to bite. My ex was a dog groomer, and I helped bathe them at times. The big dogs bit less than the small dogs.
As far as your cousin being attacked, were you there? Was your uncle? Kids lie, especially when they know they did something wrong.
