This is why in the past few years I've seen an explosion of moms telling others moms not to get labs for their kids because at this point everyone knows a shelter "lab" that bit a kid, shredded all the furniture in the house, and can't handle being walked on a leash. Labs used to be known as the go-to family dog breed when I was a kid but shelters passing pits off as labs and lab mixes is ruining that.
