Smartest and most loyal dog I've ever owned was a beautiful Pit Bull.




ShaharThorne -> RE: For the Anti Pit Bull _________s (3/4/2014 11:54:10 PM)

Never had a pit but mainly had mutts. 2 beagles that were spoiled to death (one died when her head got caught in a drain pipe and I could not find her). Had a peekapoo...Mom and Dad had 2 Cockers, one did snap at the kids because the kid was torturing it. The kid got the spanking. Lizard has a terrier mix and a Chin mix that sleep with Bo (Little Bit had a puppy last year, damn Chihuahua got a hold of her, adopt the puppy out to a good family).

Got a neighbor who has a Great Dane...scares Mom when she sees it...LOL!

This happened about 2 or 3 miles from where I live. I would have shot them on sight. These dogs are dangerous and a menace.

Warren — Two unleashed pit bulldogs attacked a horse — seriously injuring it — on Western Road in Warren Sept. 27, according to a report obtained from the Knox County Sheriff's Office.

Janice Goodwin had ridden her horse, Molly, to Beth's Farm Market to get an apple, according to Deputy Lance Mitchell's report. While walking home, she noticed two dogs in the driveway at 1005 Western Road.

As she passed the residence, Goodwin reported seeing the dogs leave the driveway and begin following her. After going about 100 feet, Goodwin said two children came to the end of the driveway and began yelling for the dogs to return.

When the dogs did not obey, Goodwin thought that if she turned around and rode back toward the residence the dogs would follow. However, as she approached the dogs, they began to maul the horse.

The attack continued for some time, during which time more than 10 citizens stopped to assist getting the dogs off the horse. The children were able to get the female dog, but it took four men to pull the male dog off the horse.

"The horse has some serious injuries," said the report.

"The horse sustained pectoral muscle tears and deep wounds to the left abdominal area," said veterinarian Paula Benner, whom had been called by Goodwin.

Benner said the worst injury was to the right side of the horse's neck, where the dog held on and tore a flap of skin approximately 11 to 12 inches in length.

Concerned the horse needed to be hospitalized, Benner called around and found someone with a trailer who was willing to transport the horse to Annabessacook Veterinary Clinic in Monmouth.

"I did as much as I could onsite," said Benner, who cleaned and sutured the wounds.

Goodwin said in a phone conversation Sept. 30 that she had received minor scratches during the entanglement, but was more concerned about Molly — her 16-year-old registered Paint quarter horse.

Goodwin had just returned from visiting Molly, and reported she is doing as well as can be expected.

She was thankful that no veins, arteries, tendons or ligaments were torn.

"The big rip in her neck is being left open to drain," said Goodwin.

The horse will most likely be released Wednesday, according to Goodwin. "But she can't come home until the bill is paid," she said. "And I am in no position to do that."

"I am waiting to hear from the officer and animal control officer," said Michael Robinson, the owner of the dogs in a phone conversation Oct. 1.

Robinson said he has offered to pay the veterinary bill for Goodwin, although he said he was told by both officers that it was not the dog's fault.

Robinson reported the male dog, Tucker, was in surgery having its jaw wired shut due to being kicked by the horse.

"Tucker's jaw was broken in two spots," said Robinson.

"They are not attack dogs," Robinson said, adding "They snuggle with the kids." The children are 8 and 11 years old.

Robinson was not given a citation, but was fined for "failure to control the dogs", according to Animal Control Officer Larry Reed.

Reed said in a phone interview Oct. 1 that he did not believe the dogs were dangerous, but "obviously something had happened."

He will be filing a report on the incident with the District Attorney's Office. Robinson has a court date set for Nov. 18, according to Reed.

"Everything was handled very well," said Goodwin of the situation.

"I knew I was in trouble, but people left their vehicles to help me," she said.

It's not just two incidents recently. On Saturday, a Pomeranian was attacked and seriously injured on Granite Street in Rockland. The Pom's owner now appears to be stuck with very substantial vet bills because of someone else's sweet, unleashed, vicious, out of control dog.



Posted by: Erika Stone | Oct 01, 2013 19:59

I find it quite hard to believe that this was not the dog's fault. The dogs follow the horse, nip at its tail, lunge at it's chest... And it took multiple people to pull the dog off the horse... and it wasn't the dog's fault? I don't care if these dogs snuggle with kids when inside the house... They are clearly a menace to all living things and should be confined to a fence when outside. Poor horse and owner - how frightening!



Posted by: Susan Dumond | Oct 01, 2013 11:22

How can it not be the dogs fault if they are following the horse. Horses don't attack without reason. I love dogs but I also know what they can do and how dangerous they can be.





Posted by: RUTH ROWLING MAXFIELD | Oct 01, 2013 10:04

"Stuff happens" for sure . . but so much "stuff" happening can be prevented! This story makes me so sad . . and so mad. DARN IT ALL TO HECK!



Posted by: Susan Sinclair | Oct 01, 2013 06:03

I carry a knife when I walk at all times. Your dog attacks me, they won't win. Sorry, I don't trust these dogs, and don't give me the crap that it's the owner, not the dog. Dog owners don't have a clue about what their dog will do.



Posted by: Paula Freeman | Sep 30, 2013 17:16

What if this had been a couple of kids riding their bikes or walking down the road. It is bad enough that it is a beautiful horse, could have been someone's child. I hope the horse pulls through for a full recovery and I hope the horse owner sues the owners of the dogs! She was lucky she had concerned citizens stop to help her or it could have been a lot worse....dirtbag!!





Posted by: Valerie Wass | Sep 30, 2013 16:46

Unfortunately, many owner of pit bulls, and other known vicious dogs, think that because they are raised with love and love their family, they are ok around others. Not true. A dog, regardless of it's breed, can turn on someone or something for no known reason. Lease laws are put in place not only to protect people but also other animals. Just another horror story of dogs mauling and killing other animals. Hopefully, others will read these two stories of dog mauling, attacking and killing and keep their dogs on a leash.



Posted by: Paula Freeman | Sep 30, 2013 16:01

Keep your damn dogs leashed - even in your own yard! This sickens me!!




LadyConstanze -> RE: For the Anti Pit Bull _________s (3/5/2014 11:56:05 AM)

I can't believe the idiot comments on that, did they scrape the bottom of the IQ barrel for the comment section.

Now how often does stuff like that happen? You pull out ONE incident and apparently you would shoot dogs on sight, interesting what passes for "responsible gun owners" in some areas...

I ride myself, though for the life of me I don't understand why I have to pick up after the dogs but not the horse, especially if the horse defecates on the street, which poses a significant danger to motorbikes. I also don't understand why people insist riding horses through streets, when a skittish horse with the hooves can and have killed people. I do wonder how many people get injured by horses, and I hope nobody gets the idea of shooting horses on sight... Because considering the intellectual impact of some posts, I wouldn't be too sure that somebody might not get that brilliant idea...




jlf1961 -> RE: For the Anti Pit Bull _________s (3/5/2014 12:10:20 PM)

First, responsible dog owners insure that their dogs, regardless of size cannot get out to be injured themselves, or injure someone else if they know their animal is aggressive.

The incident you describe is primarily a statement against irresponsible dog owners.

With the statistics quoted by some people to prove that pit bulls are dangerous, either I, or one of my children or grandchildren should have been mauled by at least two of the pit bulls I have owned, since pit bulls are instinctively aggressive.

I have been attacked by ankle biters more often than any other breed of dog. Hell I have been camping in Yellowstone and had a pack of wolves wonder into my camp one after noon. They never even growled.

I have two wolf hybrids, one a 3/4 wolf 1/4 siberian huskey, one is a "high content" wolf hybrid, meaning 90% or higher wolf. And I have to admit, they can be aggressive, since couches, towels, and one particular chair seems to threaten them all the time. People, however, are mobile belly scratchers, hug targets, and food providers, pillows, seats, bed warmers, and the creatures that open the door at good awful ass crack of dawn when they have to go out to use the bathroom and bark at the wind.

Dogs get viscous and aggressive either because their owners have made them that way, or they go feral. Breed does not mean a damn thing.




PeonForHer -> RE: For the Anti Pit Bull _________s (3/5/2014 1:20:38 PM)

JLF,

The sum total of everything I've picked up about pit bulls to date hasn't allayed my concerns about pit bulls, it's increased them. From Utopia48's link above - http://www.dogsbite.org/dog-bite-statistics-fatalities-2013.php - in North America, between 1982 and 2013, pit bulls accounted for 2792 attacks that caused bodily harm. This is more than five times the number of the closest rival to pit bulls - rottweilers, at 500. They have maimed 1677 people, compared to rottweilers' 294 - again, more than five times the level of injury.

But what gets me most is this:

"The traditional approach to dangerous dog legislation is to allow “one free bite,”
at which point the owner is warned. On second bite, the dog is killed. The traditional
approach, however, patently does not apply in addressing the threats from pit bulls,
Rottweilers, and wolf hybrids. In more than two-thirds of the cases I have logged, the
life-threatening or fatal attack was apparently the first known dangerous behavior by the
animal in question.
Children and elderly people were almost always the victim."
[My bolds]

Perhaps it's not down to the dogs' genes, perhaps it's due to the failings of their owners. Whatever, though: I can't see that it's responsible to encourage anything other than a lot of caution with these dogs.




LadyConstanze -> RE: For the Anti Pit Bull _________s (3/5/2014 1:53:57 PM)

Peon, I think the only way to address this is to address the owners, and yes, bigger dogs have more dangerous bites, however small dogs bite more often but the bites are less serious and that is why they aren't reported. I guess most men are a bit embarrassed to admit that they have been bitten by a barking rat that lives in a handbag...

You know my 2, despite their cuddliness and that they mug people for hugs, I'm aware that their jaws could easily kill somebody, dogs aren't unpredictable as some brainiac suggested, in fact they are a lot more predictable than people. As a dog owner, I would have absolutely NO issue with dog licenses, with having to pass a test with your dog to show how much control you have over your dog, how the aggression potential of your dog is, mandatory chipping and neutering (unless you are a registered breeder and under a lot of surveillance) and that if somebody can't do that, their dog is required to have a muzzle and not go off the lead.

This whole BS argument about how unpredictable and dangerous big dogs are, it's something I live with every day, people hear Doberman and they have this crazy vision of an old war movie where the evil prison patrol in nazi uniform has a snarling dog on the lead, whenever people rattle off how dangerous those dogs are, I'm tempted to tell them that the last 2 deaths were caused by licks and the people drowned in dog saliva.

What I find terrible is that the dogs pay the price for irresponsible owners or idiots baiting a dog.

First dogsbite.org is biased against pit bulls. Their statistics are exclusively based on the news paper reports, and not the final reports by the police and animal control vets who end up putting the dog down in such situations.

If you want accurate statistics, I suggest you go Dog Bite-Related Fatalities at the National Canine Research Council. I mean considering they use the police and animal control reports on attacks, study breeds to discover any harmful traits, are a peer accredited research center, all the things that dogsbite.org isn't.

Personally, I put more stock in empirical scientific research rather than the website run by some bitch who got bit by a scared dog once, who reacted the way most scared dogs react, and is now biased against a specific breed.

Now most people couldnt tell a pit from a american bull terrier from an american bulldog, or any number of mutts. If it dont look like a dobie, shephard or a freaking hound, it is automatically a pit bull.

I have been bit by a pit once, while the vet was trying to remove porcupine quills from his side. To be honest, I would bite someone if that was being done to me.

When it comes to witness statements about a dog attack, i put as much credence in them as I would a newspaper report of a UFO sighting.

As I said, you can take scientific research or you can take the word of idiots who wouldnt know a pit if it pissed on them.




ShaharThorne -> RE: For the Anti Pit Bull _________s (3/6/2014 4:59:21 AM)

I would bite someone if I had quills being pulled from me, but then we don't have porcupines around here.

We do have a neighbor who has pits...if they are inside, they are not chasing us. One of the guys was out walking and his dogs started chasing the van...we tried our best NOT to hit the dogs...I think they need to train the dogs to leave cars alone.




DomKen -> RE: For the Anti Pit Bull _________s (3/6/2014 5:31:50 AM)

Pit bulls are terriers. Terriers have very strong prey drives. They will chase and attack other animals naturally. Training them not to is very difficult. That is what happened with that horse. People get the mistaken impression that because the animals are safe with people that they are safe with animals and that is simply untrue.

Pits can be safe if bred responsibly and owned by experienced responsible people who socialize and train them properly. Otherwise...

The same mistake people make with Jack Russells and Yorkshire Terriers - my vet describes them as "Bred with enough aggression and drive to go after anything, not enough brain to be afraid of anything!"

I don't completely agree with this, but a Terrier is essentially a WORKING DOG, which is completely different from a pet, take Huskies, there are House Huskies, Working Huskies, Show Huskies, a friend got a working one and he ended giving the dog to a farmer, where it's a real asset, smart, helpful, works just like a Border Collie, the reason why he gave the dog away - dog destroyed the house twice, and by destroyed I mean destroyed, they came home to find their furniture ripped to shreds, carpets ripped up, holes in the wall.... Not the fault of the dog, it's a high energy dog who doesn't have an outlet, it's buzzing with energy. Same goes for Terriers, they need to be exercised a lot and trained a lot, if they aren't the pent up energy can turn into aggression. If you don't train them the right way and be their pack leader, they will run wild.

I'm sometimes freaking out when people have no control over their dogs and they ask me how I keep those 2 big dogs under control and if maybe Dobies are really easy to train, they're effing not, they are easy to train in the respect that they are a damned smart breed and learn quickly, the only problem with that is they learn just as quickly to get around commands, how to get away with shit. A dog will always assess you, if you're still the leader, it's not malicious, it's the pack instinct, only a good leader can keep the pack secure. If somebody complains that their dog doesn't listen, first thing I ask them where the dog sits and sleeps, if it's on the furniture, in general you have the root of the problem right here and there, same height as humans, no clear message where their place in the pack is, sometimes they sit a bit higher, even worse, when do they eat? In a dog pack you eat according to rank, so feed your dogs AFTER you've eaten and never from your plate. Translate it to human behaviour, if you're the boss of the company, you give the orders, you don't take orders from the bottom of the food chain, the dog isn't naughty or disobedient, the dog is just a dog and the owner failed to show the dog the proper place, the dog refuses to take orders from the person lower down the pecking order, the dog might love you, but it sure as hell doesn't respect you as a superior.

chatterbox24 -> RE: For the Anti Pit Bull _________s (3/6/2014 6:23:49 AM)

I own two yorkies, who will lick you to totally death. I raised them for 8 yrs and before raising them I heard they could be vicious lil dogs, but I found a different experience. I was careful to check genetics etc with a reasonable breeder on the aggressiveness of the dogs. All my dogs raised that I had contact with the people later, said they were human lovers, but they also were terriers, and although they had a small stature were quite stupid when it came to getting aggressive with larger dogs. They didn't realize one bite of a much bigger dog makes them lunch or a chew toy. I did get an adult female once, which I didn't raise from a puppy. She mistrusted everyone, even us at first, but became very loyal to us after she decided we were ok. But she would bite others if given the opportunity. She was the only mean yorkie I ever had. I really think she had been abused in some way, at some point as a young dog. She bit my nephew twice for no reason, had she been a big dog she would have severely messed him up but due to her size it was just a puncture wound. I found her a good home, and I simply hated rehoming her, but she would get so aggressive I just couldn't justify breeding her. I was afraid she might produce puppies that would bite just to bite.

He is male, and compared to Kia, he's a lot thicker, but since I started working a lot more with them, he's also the more obedient one. You call them back, Alfie will come to you and sit at your feet, you call Kia back, she will come to me, after she ran a circle around me once or twice before standing still. Technically they both come back, the smarter one just interprets the recall her own way. While Alfie (again compared to Kia) is thicker, though not as thick as he makes out, that was him training us (not a bad trick, admittedly), with a few simple changes, he's actually the far more obedient one, Kia will push a lot more, you know you tell her to sit, she will sit, but she will try to drag it out and do it in her own sweet time... If she picks up one of the barking rats that nip at her feet, she will release them on command, but again drag it out until she's near a puddle or the pond and then dump them...

That's pretty much the training thing, a few houses down a woman has 2 yorkies and it's actually really funny to see them dragging her along, she really has no control over them, one of them came in through our catflap and bit me (I delivered it back in a box as I didn't want to be bitten again and to stop the cats from beating the snot out of him, and she had a fit about her baby), I'm glad she only has small dogs because she is a person who just shouldn't have dogs. If I see her in the park and she lets them run, she begs and pleads with them to come back instead of giving them a command. She also refuses to neuter them and wonders why they frequently fight with each other (both male), one of them thinks Kia would make the idea girlfriend and is always busy humping her back leg, which results in her picking him up by the scruff of the neck and depositing him in a puddle or the pond. I honestly dread to think if that woman would have a bigger dog, I suggested dog training classes, she rather takes them to a pet shrink, as she projects that they have a neurosis... I don't think I'm exceptionally cruel if I say she seems like a complete idiot...




jlf1961 -> RE: For the Anti Pit Bull _________s (3/6/2014 7:08:50 AM)

Yeah, my little pit is truly a viscous terror.

He hides under my desk when it thunders, or under the blankets on the bed.

Brings his favorite ball to strangers to get them to play.

He is aggressive toward his shadow or actually, any shadow. His tail, the red dot that moves across the floor when daddy has the laser pointer, and god help the innocent piece of paper blowing across his yard.

LadyConstanze -> RE: For the Anti Pit Bull _________s (3/6/2014 10:04:06 AM)

It looks funny, admittedly, it's only when our dog trainer (I worked with him on a few issues, like the girl who was a bit dog aggressive after a ton of attacks happened to her, and the boy is 45 kilos of pure muscle, he needs a good training program so he can get rid of his energy, turns out teaching him tricks works just as well as long walks, for them thinking is actually great exercise that wears them out) pointed out that luckily those 2 dogs of hers are small. I'm still waiting for the day the dogs pull her over when she totters around on her high heels. If that woman had any breed that's bigger, you could read in the papers about a tragic accident and the breed would get a bad name, nobody would go "Another idiot without a clue messing a dog up!"

I have to admit that I like it when the guy to the other side goes out with his Jack Russell and the Yorkies and the JR (both completely out of control) bark and go mental, both owners hang on to the leads for what it's worth, and I casually stroll by with the 2 big dogs, who give the little dogs snotty looks, you can almost see the speech bubbles over their heads like in a comic strip where they go "Oh what appalling behaviour, no manners, those yappers...."

On the other hand, there is a lovely Yorkie in the park who made friends with Alfie and they have great fun chasing each other, it's pretty hilarious seeing Alfie chased by a dog who's not quite the size of his head, sometimes Alfie offers Ronny a stick, unfortunately it's an Alfie sized one and Ronny can't lift it. Ronny puts the neighbour's theory of "Yorkies can't be trained" to shame, the latest theory I heard from her is that Ronny might not be a real Yorkie, could have fooled me and the owner ;)




chatterbox24 -> RE: For the Anti Pit Bull _________s (3/6/2014 11:22:30 AM)

How darling! I once had a couple want to buy a yorkie from me but I was scared to death to sell to them. She said we've already had a Yorkie with our great Dane. I said what happened to the other Yorky did the great Dane eat it? She laughed and laughed and said no we had the Yorkie first and she died of old age. They brought their Noble great Dane the day of purchase on their baby. They sent me pictures later of them laying together. It looked like a king with a hairy rat laying on top of it. They were great friends.

My min pin will bite your ass before my pit will. Only reason pinky bites is if you still have the treat in your hand when she takes it.
And even then she'll quickly realize it and luck you.
I will say she will kill you with her stinky farts! JEEEEEZ!
