I'm so happy for the bot' of yuz. I *am* beginning to wonder about your tastes, however... Reminds me of a tenant of mine who, having received permission to acquire a dog showed up with a Rottweiler. A softy who howled abjectly whenever she was left alone.

Finally told the tenant he had to either take her to work with him or take her to some kind of day care. So he got rid of her.

Then he shows up with an Akita, a beautiful animal.

I laughed and said that I'm beginning to wonder at his judgment, however, that the Akita has pretty much the same reputation as the Rottie.

Oh, no, he assured me, she is sweet as can be.

The next time I saw him he had taken the Akita to the vet and had stood by while they put her down.

Turns out that while he was chatting with a friend, the Akita grabbed the friend's little girl by the arm and bit. Hard.
