Rochester police say the toddler, his mother and the two people who own the dog were at the park that evening; police say the dog lived in the same home as the child, who was identified by family members as Deoveon Callier Mathews. The toddler was throwing rocks in the air when the 65-pound dog latched onto him and held on for nearly five minutes, despite witnesses' efforts to make the dog let go, police say. Justin Shellhart was one of the neighbors who helped save the boy. He says it took three adults to pull the dog off the boy. View Quote |

View Quote The kid wasn't alone for 5 minutes. Nobody killed the shit dog in 5 minutes, or didn't have a bite stick, or enough oomph in their kick etc. |

I don't care if it is a Pomeranian, a Pit, or a Great Dane. Any dog that attacks my kid is getting a .45 or 10mm (depending on what's on my hip) in the fucking head. |

Maybe the dog got sick of being hit with rocks.
Just sayin... |

"Oh yeah, retrievers are such a great breed, they just love children!" "Man, my border collie is so smart, what a wonderful breed!" "Boy my Basset hound sure is retarded, haha what a dumb breed!" ..."Wow, pit bulls seem to attack and injure/kill a lot of people, seems like a violent bree-" "WTF FSIVHNSIOPFVNP IT'S THE OWNER'S FAULT BREED HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH IT WHAAAAARGLGBRREBFBADSF!@#!@#!@%$$%&*!!11!1!" |

In before calls for DNA testing on the dog to make sure it was an actual Pit Bull.

Nobody had a pocket knife? No shit. I have a strider that would unzip that dog in no time if I saw it latched onto a little kid. Even my wife is ready to do the same. Why every man doesn't have a pocket knife on them is beyond me. |

This is why a knife should be EDC for everyone. A punch to the ribs or the base of the head with one will stop it.

Dogs Bite Some Dogs Don't Let Go Pitt Bull Attack Archives Serious pit bull attacks reported in the media since October 1, 2015 View Quote dogbites.org lol |

I don't think all pitbulls are bad. But anyone who denies that the majority of these dog attacks are pitbulls is living in lala land.

All dog breeds bite ...Hell I'd be willing to bet pit bulls bite a lot less then some breeds ..... However pit bulls are very good at doing tons of damage when they bite... My brother had a wiener dog that bit everyone including him. I wasn't sad to see that little fucker pass away, but he couldn't do any real damage when he bit ( maybe to a very small child ) and definitely not life threatening. That said I don't trust any dogs much less the gigantic proportion of shitty owners that have dogs capable of doing massive damage.

It was his own dog View Quote About which I guarantee he previously said, "No, ol' Jaws is as gentle as a lamb. The kids jump all over him and he just lies there like a big baby." After denying, short of a DNA test, that the pit-appearing culprit is really a pit they offer their dog as evidence the breed is a sweetheart. |

dogbites.org lol Dogbites.org is often compared to Brady campaign or Moms demand action by pit bull apologists, the thing is, its easy to refute what Brady or MDA says with facts, facts that the pit bull apologists seem to lack. Maybe you have new info that can refute dogbites.org, until then I will treat it like it is, self reported consolidation of bite statistics. |

its been my experience is that shitty trashy people are attracted to pit bulls. I'm not saying all pit bulls owners are shitty and trashy but if someone is a shitty trashy person and when faced with choosing a pitbull or say a lab they will pick the pit 9 out of 10 times.
I take my two doggers over to the park every night after work. the white trash ALWAYS have a pitbull in tow and it always has a white trash name. lets see the last one who started a fight was named Gator. the only other dog named Gator I've met is the great dane down the street also owned by trashy white people. seems like the popular names are Gator, Diesel,or Harley and ones named after various booze brands. I'm betting this dog had some such name. its never Marley, squeaky, Brantley, Brandy, or Ralph. |

Dog should have been put down within 30sec. No weapon? Fine. A downward stomp on one of its legs should snap it and get it to at least let go.

I do think there is a "type" that is attracted to the breed for all the wrong reasons. Back in the late 70's - early 80's it was the Doberman that they were attracted to and before that the German Shepard.

On the plus side, they are getting these: https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/2/2f/Cane_Corso_Italiano_%281%29.jpg My grandparents were fans of all breeds, they had collie, GSD x 3, lab and little breeds, and my grandmother recalled when GSD's were used by the "tough guy" types as she termed it, then as you mentioned, Dobies were next, ,followed by Rotties, then of course the Pitbull. The "tough guy" types have always been attracted to specific breeds such as the ones I've mentioned, but I'd venture to say more responsible, non tough guy types own Breed of Peace type dogs than do the thugs. Being a Pitbull owner (all rescues) I can tell you, as can many, I see more hipster or yuppy type folks with Pits than I do thugs, granted I'm not living in Compton or Watts or Philly, but constantly being lumped into a general category because I own a specific breed of dog is absurd, but many here and many that post in these types of threads are stuck in their mindset, and likely won't ever change their narrow mindedness in regards to that perception. Perhaps it's time for me to start wearing whatever the popular urban clothing is now, excessive gold jewelry, maybe get some "blinged out grills" and trade in the 4runner for a nice lowered Escalade, or Yukon Denali, with mad bass pumpin' out of it? For the record: I'm speaking in general terms, as many folks that post in these "Vicious Pitbull kills entire village of unsuspecting children" type threads believe you are the type of person I described in the last part of my post. |

All the BOP defenders here why not start threads where other dogs attack and cause as serious bodily harm as these pit threads often produce? We can conduct our own little statistical research into the issue right here in GD since all other sources are biased according to you.
