To me it sounds like bait dog also.
He was a rescue then mabye he got out or bit one of the people.
Because they where hurting him.
They did not have a chance to use him.
Because he got away
If it was me, I'd be keeping the dog on a tight leash, and muzzling it, until I figured out what was up. There's too many unknowns, and I wouldn't want to learn the hard way, as the dog starts getting more comfortable in his new environment.

I agree with the tight leash, but not the muzzling. If the dog is "funny" already about handling, slapping a muzzle on it will not help with that. If it isn't showing any overly aggressive tendancies by now, I would just stick to a tight schedule and the NILIF program. I see no reason to treat the dog as a "biter" until given a reason to do so - and I work a lot with DEFINITE fighters. I'm not saying wait until you are bitten to muzzle it, but there are signs a dog is showing aggression long before the teeth come out. Watch for those closely, but stay positive about it. Despite what caused the teeth to be filed down, you have to handle and work with the dog you have NOW. Not the dog that was turned in, abused, or whatever.
