Comments on: Dog Attack Victim Speaks Out, Calls For Dogs To Be Put Down http://www.northescambia.com/2013/07/dog-attack-victim-speaks-out Local News for Molino, Bratt, McDavid, Century, Walnut Hill, Cantonment Wed, 08 Apr 2026 11:39:38 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.9.2 hourly 1 By: Betty H http://www.northescambia.com/2013/07/dog-attack-victim-speaks-out/comment-page-1#comment-218117 Betty H Sat, 27 Jul 2013 16:07:25 +0000 http://www.northescambia.com/?p=146553#comment-218117 I have no beef with pits that are raised and trained by responsible owners. But I wud never in a million years adopt/rescue an adult Pit. You just can't be sure of it's history and treatment previously and for that reason they shouldn't be trusted to give loyalty to a new owner. Any dog can turn in the right circumstances. They are animals after all. I have no beef with pits that are raised and trained by responsible owners. But I wud never in a million years adopt/rescue an adult Pit.

I doubt your vet said that. Vets do not recomend pits as they are very unstable. There is no need for the breed in this day and age. If pits were trainable as a working dog law enforcement would use them. They should all be put down. Pit owner – learn to read, pits are #1 on every published list.

They ARE NOT BAD DOGS. I was told by my vet today that pit bulls are one the best dogs to own and that only people cause bad dogs. Do the research bulldogs were not breed to be fighter or mean, they were bred to hunt bears and hogs. Dalmatians, German Sherpards and Chows are the top 3 most dangerous dogs and they are listed in that order. How many of you own German Shepard's? Probably a lot. Would you consider them to be killers probably not. My husband and I have owned pit bulls our entire 10 years of marriage. They ARE NOT BAD DOGS.

Actually, a dangerous dog can be killed if anyone is harmed or seriously threatened by it whereas a child in her mother's womb can only be harmed if that woman desires it. Even there, she's limited to killing her or not killing her. If she simply harms her and she is born, the mother can be charged with child abuse. David for truth CONSIDERING:

I've had a bulldog to stand @ edge of woods & bark @ me & my kids, but no he's a good boy he won't bite, they didn't even keep him shut up. When will people learn?

I have seen some of these dogs charge at us with only a fence between us and them. You can rest assured however that I do have a second option available should they ever get loose and charge us in a threatening manner. I have a Florida Concealed Carry License and I carry a 45 caliber loaded with hollow points with me whenever we go for our walk.

There is always another animal in most packs who wants to be the "pack leader" and if the old "pack leader" shows signs of weakness they will attack to take control. I worked with and trained large dogs for many years so I feel I have a good grip on this. Some times if you are out with your dogs look at their eyes and see where you are in the pecking order. There are in most cases one that will be looking at you trying to judge if they can take over as the "pack leader". Wish you luck if you stumble and fall in front of that animal and the rest of the pack joins in. @ Ironfist– While you may be in control now, never get sick or fall.
