After a little girl was attacked by a pack of abandoned dogs, WRAL TV did a story about it. To see it, click here.

My Dog Attack Danger Scale focuses on five elements that have played a part in the most serious of the recent dog attacks. The scale will enable you to recognize situations that should be avoided. If you have not familiarized yourself with the five factors, take a moment to do so now.

One of the factors is the pack mentality. A pack of dogs presents a danger to people. When you view this video by WRAL, you will hear that the attack happened in a field where people often abandon their dogs. Know that if you abandon your dog, the combination of necessity and the pack mentality could create a killer.
