I think if you read my previous responses carefully, you'll note that I never said the other dog/owners are entirely to blame. I fully recognize my dog instigated the incident by trespassing on their dog's property. I don't think that an attack-to-kill response is fair on the part of the other dog. A dog should not be given the right to kill just anything that enters it's perceived territory. If the other dog had even gone as far as pinning mine to the ground until it was commanded to release it, I wouldn't have an issue and would have felt that it was an appropriate response. Immediately going for the kill by biting and shaking is not an appropriate first response for a dog to be allowed to have. It doesn't have as much to do with the size of the dog as it does with how aggressive it is.
