I am sorry for your friend....but that makes about as much sense as saying because someone you knew died in a car crash you should never drive a car.......or how about the people who have big dogs and little tiny dogs (I have heard horror stories of accidents that had nothing to do with attacks)....or keeping cats in the same home as dogs......Littleum said:Friend kept a Mini and an Arabian together. They lived happily for quite a while. One day, they were cavorting and Arabian playfully kicked out. Struck the mini full in the head. Would have just been a "thump" to a big horse. Mini's head exploded like a melon hit with a hammer. Died instantly and in horrific fashion.
I have since considered keeping Minis with (as in, in the same pasture/stall/run/paddock) anything larger then a Sheltand to be ignorant and irresponsible.

I think that's the point. Accidents happen that have nothing to do with purposeful aggression. I would never let a three month old german shepherd pup play with a three month old chihuahua pup - the chihuahua is bound to get hurt just in normal play. The size difference is too great to take any kind of sensible chance.how about the people who have big dogs and little tiny dogs (I have heard horror stories of accidents that had nothing to do with attacks
