Hopkinton may ban Rottweilers

After a 3-year old girl was killed by two Rottweilers over the weekend, the mayor of Hopkinton says council members will discuss barring Rottweilers from the town. The dogs were owned by the girl's grandfather, and at thegrandparents' request, the dogs were euthanized. Hopkinton has a vicious-animal ordinance that already bars pit bulls and pit bull mixed breeds from inside city limits, but Rottweilers could be added. No complaints had been filed on the Rottweilers prior to the attack, and they had caused no problems other than some barking.
