If i was that worried about Bandit being near my daughter, then i wouldnt have kept him when i found out i was having her.
Any dog can be dangerous around people, its not just their breed or size etc that you have to be worried about. Its also how they have been treated. Many families with children have pets, there is always a risk of the pet hurting the kids but in my opinion, Its very rare. Considering how many dogs there are in the country and other family pets, I think you can safely say Its pretty rare for a dog to attack a child.
I was also told staffies make one of the best dogs around kids as they look after and protect them. Bandit is one of the most stupidest and softest dogs ive ever known. He is definately a womans dog and would NEVER make any kind of guard dog at all. Ive watched carefully when jayde has been around bandit, climbing on him etc and Bandit doesnt even flinch. My daughter still gets told off for pestering Bandit though as in my opinion, any dog (like any person) will only take so much ear pulling and eye poking before they let you know they have had enough.
Sammy isnt with any neighbours, ive allready checked! I posted a few pics of her about but didnt hear anything back. My guess is she had enough of Bandit and did a runner when she had the chance lol! She was a beautiful looking cat and i reckon someone has taken her in. she looked a lot younger than what she was. Not much you can do when a cat goes missing and she wasnt tagged so not much chance of getting her back.
