Well, I just got attacked by one of the "breeds of peace" at work

[ARCHIVED THREAD] - Well, I just got attacked by one of the "breeds of peace" at work (Page 1 of 3)

Posted: 8/29/2015 4:03:52 PM EDT

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.

Did you leave the dog with 10 bullet holes?

Was the owner charged with letting the animal be unrestrained?

Negative, owner was in the line of fire, and he's not a complete turd.

My best guess would be because a dog can't pour a 40 on the ground. Just a guess.....

More than likely. I cuffed him after he finished beating the dog, while bleeding from my leg. My back up unit was like WTF dude go sit down.

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.

I pride myself on not being a dick unless its warranted. I arrested his girlfriend earlier in the day for a warrant to so I kinda felt bad when I went back for him.

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.

Glad you're ok. Next time, shoot that BoP.

Jeez OP, it's all fair in war. The dog thought you were a werewolf with all that hair and was just defending the owner!

Looks like that hurt, glad you weren't more seriously injured.

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!

Literally the first time I've had a dog go Cujo on me. I love dogs, shit I have 3 lazy retards that live with me. That dog had no intent on stopping the attack.

Sorry about the bite, dude. That shit's never fun.

Sad for the dog, too. Trash owner didn't bother ensuring its safety or yours. Can't blame the dog for defending its turf or its owner, but I can damn sure blame its owner for putting it in that position in the first place.

Trash owner. A pit that bites, or is aggressive to humans, is not worth the powder to blow it's head off and should not be allowed to live. The worst thing that happened to the breed was the small-penis crowd getting them, "ooh I want a FIGHTING dog, so I can be a tough guy": thugs, 1% bikers, gangs, hood rats, wanna-be tough guys and other trash that got the dogs, which should have never been sold to them. The breed has been ruined by these idiots indiscriminately breeding these animals. You can say that about a lot of things in this world.

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.

I have zero hate for the breed, I do have a strong disdain for dogs that bite without provocation. That dog would have done serious damage to child.

I had a Pitt come at me once, it is scary how fast they will go from a dead stop to a ten foot gap, luckily for me my Chow was with me and took him down.

I've never witnessed a pit attack but one time at my cousin's his 2yr old son was about to come down some steps which means he would of fell.

Our friend who played college safety is 6'3 230lbs took off running to stop him. Cousin's 165lbs bullmastiff thought he was going to hurt the child so it took off full speed and jerked him down by his calf muscle and then stood between him and the little boy growling. (Scary stuff)

Friend had to go to ER for stitches and they called the Sheriff's Office because they were convinced it was a gunshot wound.
