When did the pit bull attack happen? Was it after the dog scuffle? In other news I saw about 6 "pit bulls" at the bite of seattle today with owners. No babies or poodles were eaten. (Babies and poodles were both present) *Yawn I see what you did there. Yeah, I guess the title is misleading...The pit did attack the other dog though. I was told it was just sitting there when the pit attacked it. I might be a little biased Carry on. Ya ya think? You are the "my baby didn't do nuffin" of the dog world Well for the record none of my pits have ever done anything so there's that. Extrapolate from that what you will. |

Quoted:
We have a small outdoor, dog-friendly patio at our brewpub. A random pitbull wandered onto the patio and started a fight with a patron's dog. The pitbull was an un-neutered male. The patron's dog was a labradoodle type dog. I was working in the brewery when I heard a bunch of commotion and screaming. I was in the middle of a task with my hands full and couldn't drop what I was doing. I looked through the overhead door and saw what was going on and grabbed a hammer. At least 6-8 patrons trying to break up the fight. A few of them were punching and kicking the pitbull but it just wouldn't let up its grip on the other dog's neck. They managed to break it up. The crazy thing is that the pitbull was the one that was all fucked up. His face was all cut up and was bleeding pretty good. I'm not sure if it was from the other dog or from the guys punching and kicking it. I can't help but think if what it was a child that the pitbull attacked... Good. He started the fight, and the labrapoodle's friends ended it. |

I just sprayed the second pitbull this year with my 1 pound crowd control pepper spray. Was wandering the neighborhood and when he saw my Beagle he came charging. I let him have it from 10 feet away and kept it on him until he finally stopped. If he didn't he would of got the 45 in the mid section next. Fucking Pitbulls.

When an American Staffordshire Terrier type dog commits an unprovoked attack, that dog automatically earns the pitbull description.
From the "pitbull" type attacks I have seen(latching on and holding), a hammer is the perfect tool as he is an easy target. I think the situation was handled well. I would not have wanted to fire a gun in a patio full of bystanders. |

I'm not stereotyping a breed of dog, but observing the publics reaction/perception. I have four dogs, one is a well behaved, calm Rott, that my insurance company freaks out with. One is a a much larger, stronger, more capable South African Boerboel that they just shrug their shoulders at hearing. The two mixed breed terriers, long haired little dogs, would be more likely to bite just because they are more likely to feel threatened with their small size. All in the public perception, the most dog bites come from labs, but no outcry. |

There are two sides to a hammer. I'm not going to pretend to be a bad ass so I will just tell my story. When I was around 12yrs old growing up in middle class upstate NY we had a problem with a neighbors Great Dane who was running around the neighborhood terrorizing people... I was out in the driveway when I heard the other neighbors lab start howling/screaming in pain. I ran down to the end of the drive (few 100ft long) just as my father was pulling up from work... The Dane was attacking our neighbors lab. The Dane had the lab wrapped up in its own chain and was just chomping away and the lab didn't stand a chance. Now this dog had already chased my twin sisters out of the back yard once a few weeks before and I think my father was looking for revenge and he was in the right place. Before I begin the story of the counter attack let me tell you this... My father is 6' 4" and 225lbs, he played sports his entire life, and was an avid hunter and fisherman... He was no pussy. So dad runs into the neighbors garage and grabs a spade head shovel, the kind with a 4' wooden handle, runs back out and takes a grand slam swing at the Danes head, and connects, with the pan of the shovel.... That Dane didn't even break stride in his attack on that lab. So dad took another swing this time connecting with the edge, it split the Danes head open from ear to eye... Still the Dane didn't even bat it's one good eye. My father proceeded to hit that dog so hard so many times that the shovel broke, finally the Dane backed off, shook the blood everywhere, and trotted off like nothing happened. I learned a valuable lesson after seeing that, large breed dogs will simply not stop their attack until they are physically unable to continue. Dogs have a retarded kid on a cocaine fuled rage switch that is only turned off when they want to shut it off or they are dead. If a spade head shoel won't kill a dog, I highly doubt a hammer would unless you get a lucky shot in. And as a 12yr old, I was scared shitless. |

Before I begin the story of the counter attack let me tell you this... My father is 6' 4" and 225lbs, he played sports his entire life, and was an avid hunter and fisherman... He was no pussy. So dad runs into the neighbors garage and grabs a spade head shovel, the kind with a 4' wooden handle, runs back out and takes a grand slam swing at the Danes head, and connects, with the pan of the shovel.... That Dane didn't even break stride in his attack on that lab. So dad took another swing this time connecting with the edge, it split the Danes head open from ear to eye... Still the Dane didn't even bat it's one good eye. My father proceeded to hit that dog so hard so many times that the shovel broke, finally the Dane backed off, shook the blood everywhere, and trotted off like nothing happened. I learned a valuable lesson after seeing that, large breed dogs will simply not stop their attack until they are physically unable to continue. Dogs have a retarded kid on a cocaine fuled rage switch that is only turned off when they want to shut it off or they are dead. If a spade head shoel won't kill a dog, I highly doubt a hammer would unless you get a lucky shot in. And as a 12yr old, I was scared shitless. Quote HistoryQuoted: Quoted: Quoted: Quoted: Too many people in the area to discharge a gun. Besides, a hammer to the head would have done the job. If it were attacking a human, I probably would have grabbed my gun. Lol... No. Trust me. There are two sides to a hammer. I'm not going to pretend to be a bad ass so I will just tell my story. When I was around 12yrs old growing up in middle class upstate NY we had a problem with a neighbors Great Dane who was running around the neighborhood terrorizing people... I was out in the driveway when I heard the other neighbors lab start howling/screaming in pain. I ran down to the end of the drive (few 100ft long) just as my father was pulling up from work... The Dane was attacking our neighbors lab. The Dane had the lab wrapped up in its own chain and was just chomping away and the lab didn't stand a chance. Now this dog had already chased my twin sisters out of the back yard once a few weeks before and I think my father was looking for revenge and he was in the right place.

I don't doubt any bit of it. Who really knows what a hammer would have done. But firing a gun in that situation was not an option. I would assume a hammer claw blow that punctured the brain would do it. Whether or not a blow like that could be delivered in the chaos is a different story. |

Quote HistoryQuoted: So what happened to him after this? Animal control? Quote HistoryQuoted: Quoted: Updated OP with a pic. So what happened to him after this? Animal control? Cops were relctant to take it at first. They wanted us to take it to the humane society. In the end they loaded it up in the back of their SUV. Not sure what happened to it. For all I know, they took it and put a bullet in its head. |

Hammer to the base of the skull is a lot different than a spade. And you're right about the dog not stopping, that is why a hammer blow is a prudent decision. |
