It's time we ban pitbulls

[Richard_Cuckold]

Enough is enough. These dogs are way too strong & unpredictable. Plus, they are normally owned by the wrong people. Deadly combo right there.

This latest pitbull attack is absolutely heartbreaking.

A 14-month-old Wisconsin boy has died after a brutal attack by a pair of pit bulls, authorities said on Thursday.
Police received a call from Susan Iwicki, 30, on Wednesday saying that she and the young boy were being attacked by the dogs, according to local NBC affiliate WMTV. Iwicki told police that she and the boy had each sustained injuries.

The boy died of his injuries at a Milwaukee area hospital later on Wednesday, the Walworth County sheriff’s office said, according to The Associated Press.
The boy had the “biggest eyes, great smile,” family friend Valerie Brylow told local affiliate WTMJ. “He was a great little boy.”
“He is adorable, absolutely adorable,” Nicole Jennison, another family friend told the station.
The boy’s name has not been released, and an investigation continues. Both of the pit bulls were removed from the property and euthanized on Wednesday, WMTV reported.
The fatal dog attack was the first in Wisconsin in a decade, according to the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel.

I've been around em for almost twenty years. Most of what people call pitbulls today are a hybrid of three of more breeds at this point. I watched a documentary called Dogman a few nights ago. About a guy in south lousania that trained dogs and taught people to train dogs for 30 years. Had some very interesting ideas about canine behavior. I highly recommend it if you have an hour to kill.

My Dobermans are fine with people as long as they don't try to break into something. On the other hand, one of them hates squirrels with every fiber of it's being. I don't warm up to them myself, because they make short work of the apples on my trees if left unchecked. She has a different back when she sees one and lets me know. When I hear it, I step outside and drop the squirrel.

The dog has also caught a few on her own and done them in. It still amazes me how much ground those things can cover quickly if they want to.

Lol, Ashley's got it out for rabbits. Squirrels can walk on top of the fence and she'll just yawn, but A BUNNY!!!!!!!

All this.

You raise them to be man eaters, intentionally or not, there's a good chance someone is going to get eaten up.

Raise one to be a big cuddly teddy bear, and the worst you will get is slobber all over you.

I had a dog, an Alaskan Husky to be exact, that would catch squirrels in the back yard. She would catch them by the tail and would slam them against a tree until they were dead and eat them. But she would only growl at anyone if my body language wasn't good with that person.

She lives to play, needs no leash (other dogs hate her and are jealous), but it comes from training. She's young and is still finding the boundaries, but the kids in this neighborhood ring the doorbell to see if she can play. One kid asked her daycare if she could bring Ashley in for show and tell.

But if a person jogs by in a hoodie, she lets us know. We can't be sure what her days were like in the year before we adopted her, but men in hats and hoodies are not to her liking. So golf days mean the hat goes on "not at home."

The owner of those vicious killers had the gall to tell us to keep our harmless lap dog from charging the fence, though.

Your dogs have nothing to fear from mine, bitch. How about you keep your bloodthirsty monsters on the leash?

Flame away.

Typical. It's the little dogs that are the aggressor yet the large dogs get the blame because they do the damage.

Saw the bumper sticker on a low-rent, four color Saturn station wagon this morning. The car was an absolute piece of shit, but it still outclassed its driver by a considerable degree.

I am extremely impressed by the fact that they have a Saturn and it is still running

Lighten up Francis! But yeah, the dog who are tied-up because they'll run seem to "have envy" for the dog that's not on a leash and has all the kids playing with her..

But again, lighten up!
