Jan Smith Knowing dog body language is irrelevant in predicting whether a pit bull type dog will rip your face off. Check out Randall Lockwood's statement (he is pit nutter extrodinaire despite his experience): "Fighting dogs lie all the time. I experienced it first hand when I was investigating three pit bulls that killed a little boy in Georgia. When I went up to do an initial evaluation of the dog's behavior, the dog came up to the front of the fence, gave me a nice little tail wag and a "play bow" -- a little solicitation, a little greeting. As I got closer, he lunged for my face."

  Eve Sylvie Children don't know and are not capable of "reading" a dog's expressions. We need to stop encouraging parents to take those kinds of pictures exploiting both child and dog as props.

  Jan SmithYet again, I find this video highly objectionable because it doesn't mention the pit bull type dog danger. It's another piece of propaganda that suggests by omission that all dogs bite and all dogs are as dangerous as pit bull types. The number one safety rule to keep children safe is: Never share any physical space (indoors or outdoors) with a pit bull type dog. Once they've learned that, they can learn things about interacting with normal dogs.

  Julia Lewis I agree, it's terribly dishonest. It makes me furious.
