10.09.10 internet chatter I recently saw a pit bull getting very aggressive with another dog at the dog park. The owner of the other dog looked for pit bull’s owner for assistance but ended up grabing the pit bull by the collar and hit it in the ribs. I’d take on any dog to protect my dog but my wife says not to get involvede in the fight. Any suggestions?

10.11.10 lantana, florida an ugly mutant with a history with the AC, got loose from its house and killed Coki, a 10 lb pomeranian. the little dog's owner was bitten trying to save her dog. 56 yr old Shelly Puritz is waiting to hear if it had current rabies shots. the pit nutter CORY HUSTEN, or COREY HOUSTEN says that it is as "simple as leaving a door open". huh?

10.11.10 internet chatter We have a fenced backyard. On Monday evening, while I was out, a neighboring dog jumped fences to get into my yard. He is a shepherd mix (looks like pit bull). He mauled my dog, a corgi-terrier, to death. My back patio was covered in blood, the collars of both dogs, & my poor sweet dog’s mangled body. We’ve seen the said dog with a choker chain collar like the one we found on our patio…no tags. Our next door neighbors said they saw that dog in their yard the night of the attack. We confronted the owners of the suspect dog &, long story short, they got a deer in the headlights look & shut the door in our face. The police won’t do anything because a person wasn’t involved. Animal Control won’t do anything because we don’t have hard proof – no witnesses. There’s 2 schools about a ¼ mile from my home. It’s my understanding when a dog does this, it will do it again! Nothing I can do will bring back the lifelong friend I had in my pet, but I have to stop this from happening again!

I would never say it looks like a pit bull just b/c it did something violent. I’m not about that. It does, however, seem to resemble some pit features. My neighbors have stated similar opinions.

10.12.10 internet chatter My sister’s cat was killed while she watched. Some people were walking their unleashed pit bull dog down the street. The pit bull ran into my sister’s yard, jumped on the porch, and grabbed her cat’s neck. The dog flung the cat back and forth while the dog owners yelled at him. My sister was in shock and screamed, “MY CAT, MY CAT!” My sister’s husband threw a pan of water on the mean dog, but he continued to kill the cat. The dog’s owers grabbed the dog finally and said they were just baby sitting the dog, that he was not their dog. The peole did not say they were sorry and they offered no help. The people and the dog continued their walk down the street while my sister was sobbing uncontrollably. Aren’t there city laws that punish mean, uncontrolled dogs, and their stupid owners that do not keep them on a leash?

10.14.10 internet chatter My dog is about to be 1 yr. old next month- she’s spayed & everything… I took her to puppy training which helped me teach her basics and all but she never really got over the aggression part. It all began when we first adopted her and we brought her around my hubby’s cousin’s (2) dogs. They all 3 were playing fine- but I don’t think she liked when they were holding her down to sniff very much, because by the end of the night they started to get serious- well anyways, ever since she snaps at other dogs & already broke about 8 collars. This Tuesday coming up we’re adopting one of those dogs- the male, we are gonna take him to get neuter in the morning & bring him home to stay because the owner can no longer keep him because of lack of space (he’s too big) he’s a 1 yr. old pit bull mix as well- he has lived with 2 other dogs so I’m pretty sure he wont be the issue- is my dog I’m worried about. I have 2 kennels & everything, but what do I do so they can start getting along- will having the other dog make my other dog more aggressive or eventually she’ll get use to him? Any tips or advice will be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance

10.14.10 oakland county, michigan a woman was walking a small white dog when a mutant pit bull bolted out of the condo and attacked it. the 44 yr old pit nutter ran out to help the victims but the two women were unable to pull the frankenmauler off of Gracie, the little dog. Gracie's owner then hit the pit bull in the head with pliers and he let go. amazingly, Brutus the pit bull was up to date on rabies but the license was expired. Gracie is expected to survive. pliers? i'm thinking a tool belt with a hammer, screwdriver, pliers and maybe a box cutter is the way to go for people who can't or don't to carry a gun. screw the pepper spray.

DIRTNAP DUGG O'CONNOR

shrewsbury, massachusetts in a 4-0 vote, the selectmen ordered the mutant to be HUMANELY euthanized. the purple needle will do what the wrench, garden clippers and mere human hands couldn't --- STOP the frankenmauler. apparently DUGG'S owners CHRIS and LISA O'CONNOR'S home was broken into and people were threatening to picket their home if the mutant returned. “We never wanted to be bad neighbors. I wish they’d just come to us. We didn’t know they felt this way until tonight.” LISA O'CONNOR. the O'CONNORS are dissapointed in the death sentence. they hoped that DUGG would be shuttled into a sanctuary in florida by the name of B.U.D.D.I.E.S. in the hope springs eternal notion that he would be rehabbed.
