weekly frankenmauler roundup 7/1/10

my hero 65 yr old Monica Sorel and her dog Pepper
featured frankenmauler attack

providence, rhode island Monica Sorel was just sitting on her porch with Pepper when she saw a pit bull break free from the person walking it and charge after her dog. Monica did an awesome job of protecting Pepper. she beat the pit dog back 3 times and was finally forced to wrestle the ugly frankenmauler to save her dog. Monica held the 60 lb pit dog in a head lock while her neighbor called 911. Monica and Pepper were both injured.

this is FRANKIE the frankenmauler

"He's never been aggressive with me in any way, shape or form. He's been around young children. He has been around other dogs varying in size ... and there has never, ever been a problem." LAUREN FONTAINE

FONTAINE said her mommy was walking the ultimate canine gladiator, when FRANKIE spied a squirrel and his super duper prey drive kicked in. FONTAINE insists that FRANKIE is not vicious.

i don't know, beating a dog back three times? putting it in a head lock? i have yet to meet the lab that does't retreat when i stomp my foot and yell at it to go home.

providence headlines examiner CHERYL PHILLIPS implies that Monica provoked the pit bull because she used her hands as a break stick to save Pepper's life:

"Under RI state law, a dog can be declared vicious for several reasons, among them unprovoked attacks on humans or domestic animals.

The question is, was this attack provoked or unprovoked? Although Sorel claims the dog attacked her, the report indicates that the pit bull went after Sorel's Boston Terrier and she blocked the pitbull. She was then injured by the pitbull, apparently having to bandage two fingers that were bitten when she tried to pry the pitbull's jaws open when it attacked her dog."

IT IS THE OPINION OF THIS BLOGGER THAT PEOPLE WHO BLAME DOG OWNERS FOR THE INJURIES SUSTAINED WHILE DEFENDING THEIR PETS FROM PIT BULLS ARE HEARTLESS.

rip Corky

6/22 peoria, illinois Corky the lab/cocker mix lived 15 wonderful years, well except for the last few minutes of her life when she became victim number 3 of a neighborhood pit bull. the pit bull belonged to CARLOS BROOM of 2105 W.Moss Avenue is pictured below. BROOM has a history of multiple violations with multiple dogs. this frankenmauler will get his dirt nap and BROOM will get another pit dog. BROOM is living the dream, while Corky's owner is stuck with the nightmare.

Courtney Hinds and Bailey
6/26 australia Bailey and his owner were walking along the beach when one of 2 pig dogs being walked by their collars SOMEHOW managed to wriggle out of it and tried to attack Bailey. Bailey's quick thinking owner grabbed her dog and ran for the water. unfortunately, she tripped and the dog bit her head. the pig dog owner smacked his dog, yelled sorry and left.

6/26 elgin, illinois a 63 yr old man fought off two loose pit bulls as they tried to attack him and his german shepherd while out for their evening walk.

rip Manchas

6/28 richmond, california Manchas was killed protecting his family from 2 pit bulls who entered into their home. i thought ONLY pit bulls loved their owners enough to die for them?

these two ugly white dogs are Manchas killers, JADE and BEAST.

6/28 jacksonville, florida two ugly frankenmaulers have been in control of a neighborhood for the last few weeks; barking, roaming, menacing people and their pets. the pit dogs finally succeeded in killing a dog. animal control has been called out a few times but the dogs are too fast and ac is too gutless to call in an armed officer to neutralize the threat. remember jeff daniels? his panties were all in bunch because he was careless about his dogs in the yard. when they got loose, ac was called. when ac couldn't catch one after nearly an hour, they shot it. florida you need to refer to north carolina on the proper handling of these situations.

it is estimated that there are 350,000,000 guns in the united states and not a one are in this jacksonville neighborhood?

6/28 UK an ugly staffy bull attacked several sheep. one sheep died, another is still fighting to live and others sustained serious wounds.

6/29 benton, arkansas WILLIAM and TERESA McPEAK'S ugly frankenmauler SOMEHOW how got loose and mauled the neighbor's dachshund, Rusty, so badly he was euthanized. that was saturday morning. the McPEAKS were issued a citation that requires the attacking dog to be quarantined for 10 days. on monday, the ugly pit dog chased Rusty's owner back into his house.

350,000,000 guns. where are they?

Prince

6/29 lehigh acres, florida 7 yr old 10 lb mini pin Prince and his 70 yr old owner are recovering from an encounter with a pit bull.

is it just me or is lehigh acres turning into a pit bull shit hole from hell? or maybe it is the entire state?

6/29 indiana county, pennsylvania 2 ugly frankenmaulers received their much deserved dirt naps when they SOMEHOW got loose and attacked the neighbor's white tail deer. the man who raises the white tail deer returned the dogs to the owner. the dogs immediately came back and attacked, killing one deer and severely mauling some of his fawns. the only thing the deer rancher returned this time was fire. he should have shot them the first time.

AMBER CALO and RAPIST MIKE TYSON

6/30 saline, michigan AMBER CALO'S 2 yr old female pit bull named GRINGA got loose and attacked a 7 yr old leashed beagle on its evening walk. the responding police found a chaotic scene involving several people, including a frightened man holding GRINGA by the choke collar. the ugly frankenmauler was described as exhausted and covered in the beagle's blood. CALO paid for the vet bills and claims to feel "really bad" yet she plans to try and save GRINGA'S life and promises to move her out of the neighborhood.

6/30 ottawa, canada another freaky LEDY VANKAVAGE type lawyer is working to save the life of 3 yr old PRINCESS. the ugly pit dog is too young to have been legally grandfathered into the 2005 pit bull ban. she is not spayed and of course she mauled a small dog. JAIME STEPHENSON filed a stay of execution on behalf of the frankenmauler. i'm sorry but a stay of execution? for a dog? for a dangerous dog? they don't call them nutters for nothing.

6/30 australia a pit bull killed a cat. the pit nutters were described as 2 middle eastern men, aged 63 and 35. they were overheard saying this was the second cat the dog killed in 2 weeks.

7/1 mexico, missouri a pit bull got loose and killed a poodle.

7/1 UK a loose staffy bull attacked Pippa, a west highland terrier and Ruby, a pom/chi mix.

“This was going on for about ten to 15 minutes and Pippa was dripping with blood, she was screaming, I’ve never heard a dog make that noise and I hope I’ll never have to do it again.” (i've heard that noise) the owner has been arrested and the ugly dog seized. this is the frankenmauler's fourth attack.

and the dog attacks that the media NEVER reports:

6/23 redding, california ROBERT BELASCO'S japanese tosa (a fighting dog) attacked a woman at a dog park. the victim's little dog let out a cry and she picked up her dog. the cry got the attention of the tosa and he bit the woman in the arm, requiring 40 stitches. tosas have as much business at dog park as pits, dogos and presas. this is the second DOCUMENTED attack at the dog park involving one of BELASCO'S dogs.

6/24 florida a 4 yr old shih tzu named CYRUS was declared dangerous after it attacked a little boy in april. this is the first small dog incident that i found. they have been large: great danes, boxers, rotts, tosas, bullmastiffs, cane corsos...

6/25 fall river, massachusetts a bull mastiff grabbed a shih tzu through the fence and "ripped its jaw off". the little dog died. witnesses say the owner of the bull mastiff looked pleased.

6/29 shrewsbury, massachusetts the board of selectmen ordered a dirt nap for a rottweiler belonging to MARY E TROST of 10 Latura St. the 4 yr old dog terrorized people and animals for 2 years. good riddance. i hope they banned TROST from owning any more dogs.

6/30 australia a bull terrier/cattle dog mauled a cat.

UPDATE remember the little dog named Sophie who was attacked in downtown san francisco by a pit bull, the owner tried to flee leaving her dog behind? T-SHA SULLIVAN, the owner of COCO the attempted killer dog has been banned from owning dogs for 3 years. and COCO? pit nutters became outraged that the ugly frankenmauler was going to get a peaceful death. "In the case of Coco, however, Officer John Denny of the police department's dangerous and vicious animals division says Coco reacted so poorly to being in confinement that evaluators could not even get into the cage to interact with her."

COCO is dirt napping. :)
