how would you handle this situation

this is simply a hypothetical question for the sake of discussion. me and a friend were talking the other day and couldnt agree on what we would do.

let's say you have a great dog. im talking a gr.nt.ch. maybe even on the reproducers list, just a flat out great asset to the coonhound world. one day this dog bites someone, completely unprovoked. what do you do? i can tell you now, no questions asked what i'd do. i'd put a bullet in him/her. i wont take a chance of that same dog biting again. it could be a kid next time. my buddy was saying he'd consider keeping the dog and just keep it isolated from people b/c of what a great stud/brood gyp it is. what would you do?

why would breed a dog like that,knowing there is a possability this trait could be passed on?

Aggression toward man is totally different than aggression toward other dogs. Agression toward man is usually man made, so you would have to know the circumstances in order to make that decission.

shoot

the dog no circumstance warrants a dog bitting a man

unprovoked

that is we r not talkin nip or a crazy tree dog right

I'd keep it and keep on hunting it and breeding it.but then mean dogs and all that don't bother me any like they seem to do some.

I agree with John , I had a dog that I was getting on to one night and he was in his box , he charged at me . When he did I grab him like I was fighting for my life and he was the one fighting to live , my friend said shoot him . But he was a good dog I think I just took it alittle to far getting on him . So I just whoped him good and never had a problem out him no more.

If he just out of the blue one day bit someone, chances are it was provoked or caused by something other than the dog being mean. That is an unlikely cenerio, and frankly kind of a stupid question. A dog old enought to be a reproducer doesn't just snap one day and turn mean, unless there is some underlying cause.
