any dog of mine (inside or outside and regardless of breed) ever bites anyone other than an intruder, that dog won't live another day.

You say this on here but that's not true.

We had a golden retriever Male. When he was maybe 2 he bit my nephew (maybe 5 or 6 at time) on the hand, wasnt a bad wound at all. Of course the nephew, at first, said all he did was try to pet him while he was laying in back of our Yukon. Truth was he was fricking with the dog yanking on his paws and ears ( the truth was told by my child and later by nephew)

So you would have euthanized the golden over that incident? If so, then you shouldn't own a dog.

Same dog bit same nephew (14 at time) later in life when nephew tried to break up a fight between said golden and their spaniel. It was at night and he was throwing ball for dogs and they started going after each other over the ball, the spaniel started after the golden first and then was getting his arse handed. before I could get to them the nephew who was much closer grabbed him by the collar, was yelling and etc. The Dog instinctively bit him. This time he got him in face; needed 2 stitches in cheek above lip. I had yelled at nephew to leave them alone and I was coming to break them up but he didnt listen and go himself bit.. my brother was about to kill (got a shotgun)the golden after beating him (dog had a injured back for rest of his life which was only a few years longer when we had to put him down because he could no longer get up and shite himself several time )I didn't let that happen..he didnt see it happen until after the bite occured when he came out from hearing all the noise.

Again, you putting the dog down for that?
