Let me try to explain what happened a little better.



Guy says "He'll bite you". I turn to the right and saw the dog approximately 15' away, at which point he charged. By the time I was backing up to create distance he was on me and I lifted my right leg to kick that fucker. He latched on and spun me on the loose gravel and I went down. I was trying to keep him away from my face/throat and he grabbed my left hip. Owner stepped in and I staggered back to my unit.

What's this "I raised my leg to brace" business?  Do you mean you lifted one foot off the ground?  If so, that's probably why the dog knocked you down.  Honestly, having dealt with dogs my entire life I've never heard of that technique, and would consider it to be dangerous, as it gives the animal more easy access to your face and throat.



Glad you're ok, I hope you heal up fast!

Got it.  An attempted kick at a charging dog, specially a large breed, is a gamble, if you connect you can turn the attack, if you miss you're down and if you're unlucky, he's on your chest tearing at your face or throat.




I'd rather have both feet on the ground and fend off the attack with my arms and body, but in the heat of the moment the natural reaction seems to be to kick at the dog.  Once the animal launches itself, it's pretty easy to steer them away from you, but it does take a cool head and it's damn hard not to get bit at least once.

The owner might be a turd for having a poorly trained animal, but I made damn sure the transporting deputy told him thank you for me and let him have a smoke before he went in on his charge. He saved me a good deal more of damage, that carries respect in my book.

I can draw in .75 seconds from the holster. Double that time for an "oh shit" and it's still plenty of time to ventilate that pit.

I've got no love for pits.

Lol wait you really let a pit take you down by the leg?

Gravel driveway, I was back peddling. If the owner hadn't come to my aid I'd be in bad shape. It was a legitimately tense moment for me


Do you not carry a tazer as well?



Yep, when I tell you the dog was on me before I had time to react, I'm not joking. He was probably 15' front me and then on me, and then I was trying to wrestle him off me.

If they're already going to kill the dog, why not just do so and cut the head off to check for rabies?

They probably will,  I know a guy who was the animal executioner at the SPCA in Jefferson Parrish.  He said they would cut off the heads of suspected animals with a Sawzall and send it to some place in Baton Rouge for testing.

I just saw the strangest looking dog I've seen.   While driving through the neighborhood I saw a guy walking what looked like a Rhodesian Ridgeback.   I stopped to see the dog.  He said it was a shelter dog, mix.   When the dog turned around his face was pure pit.   It was on a lead and he let it come to the car so I could pet it out of my window.   That went well,  but when I started to pull off the dog snarled and lunged at me,  acted like he wanted to rip my face off.   Don't know what pissed him off.   ha.

It's easy to second guess shit like this. I'm truly a dog lover, but have a special mistrust of pits.

I'm glad things turned out okay for you no worse than they did for you, next time, shoot. To save yourself at least. Be careful man.

Went to an animal complaint, with the intent to also arrest the owner on an active warrant.



Made contact with perp, who I have a good rapore with. Asked if the dog got loose.



"Ya....watch out he's right there and he will bite you."

Turn ansee tan/white pit who proceeds to charge. I raise my right leg to brace, he latches onto my calf and takes me down. We scuffle, he bites my left hip,.



Owner comes to my aid grabbing him by the throat I scramble to my unit and radio for ems.



Just left the hospital with 10 stitches.
