Should a small dog be destroyed because it uncharacteristically nipped someone?

The owner offered to take the dog to a behaviourist and to muzzle train. From the information we have gotten about the case, that seems a fair and appropriate action.

Ex garda too, says it all. I seen a link on Facebook a couple of days ago but didn't read it and posted in the comments it was probably a nip and turns out I was right. I was bit a few times over the years(pierced skin too) and I also got nipped walking out a pub door but unlike that cow I never done anything about the times I was bit. Common sense should be seen in court. Yes if a dog bit me and was really vicious then yes I would say that dog needs to be destroyed but little nips by tiny dogs now come on. The world is gone crazy.

She also deserves all the bad press she is getting.

The dog now has a taste for blood now.

Dogs are too stupid to be trained to use a litter box. The idea that they can be trained out of biting, after having done so, is laughable.
