Zeus should not be put down. The owner offered to put the dog in another room and the worker said no that he liked dogs and to leave him out he petted the dog and something happened to that made Zeus feel threatened. I know the worker was bit more then one time but he did not need stitches. If that dog was mean and bought up mean the worker would of been alot worse and need medical attention. Zeus never hurt anyone before should be given a second chance to stay with his owner. As it stands right now if he lives he will be sent away to be trained a police dog. I think that is wrong. I know from now on if I have a worker come to my house I will put my dogs in another room no matter what they say. This could happen to anyone.

I agree with you JJ 2. He was only protecting as instinct. I also hope that this dog will have a chance to live and be trained to serve as a police dog.

I really hope things work out favorably for Zeus. He doesn’t deserve to die. He was only protecting his house…that instinct could be channeled positively in a career as a police dog.

Was the owner in the house at the time of the incident? If s/he was then why would not s/he hold the dog back at the sight of the Verizon employee? We always take a hold of our dog whenever a stranger approaches the house’s entrance door. I will never understand why some people expect their dogs AND children to like everyone and vice versa.
