Then shouldn't all female dogs who've had litters be taken out of homes with young children? I don't think you're understanding the difference between a behavioral issue and instinctual issue. Any dog in the same circumstances is just as capable of doing the exact same thing. This is something that is impossible to train or breed out of animals and simply a risk humans have to accept by bringing them into our homes.
And as I said earlier, other dogs out there are much, much more likely of having a similar incident simply because the adoption process would be very strict and the dog would be placed in a home where it would never be in the same situation ever again.
