Social Pitbull Attack thread

[tonni]

Year's ago my wife and went for a walk at the beach,this is a west coast beach covered with big logs , it was a windy fall day that meant there weren't many people around , I wandered off to take some photo's , we were separated maybe 10 minutes .

I hear something and see my wife yelling, I go running over at the same time as two ladies come running over , my wife had been cornered by two pit bulls , they were stalking her , had her cornered for a few minutes , she had been screaming but due to the wind no one could hear her , the women made some excuses grabbed their dogs and took off .

What do you guys think would have happened if she turned and ran rather than stay facing them keeping them in front of her ?

I have no doubt they would have attacked and it would have been for no bloody reason, they are a dangerous breed imo , their wiring is off .

What did your wife have in her pockets?

P4P ugliest breed.

You realize when you are a kid it doesn't matter right?

And please tell me you aren't actually turning a blind eye to labs biting because they aren't as dangerous as larger more powerful breeds. They are more abundant and you have more of a chance to encounter them, how the hell does that not matter?

You know who bites more than all dogs? Mosquitoes. I do turn a blind eye to mosquito bites because they are harmless in the 1st world pretty much. So yes, mosquito bite more people than pitbulls.

Where's the next photo? Was this the last one taken before the incident? Such a sad situation.

Found it...

Exactly, by all accounts large cats (jaguars etc) are far more "noble" of temperament than small cats (who are comparatively serial killers, with the highest ratio of successful hunts in the animal kingdom). Doesn't matter though, as little feral kitty is tiny and noble jaguar is huge.

Mentality is one thing, physicality is a whole other. I've an English cockaspaniel. They can suffer from "cocka madness" where they spazz out. She'll snarl like a rabid wolf but in the end her 28 pounds of fluff can't even harm a child. Her bite is so weak (bred that way so they don't ruin the woodcocks when they fetch them) that when she does get her mouth around my arm she lacks the strength to bite down with any pressure at all. Her bite strength is so weak her teeth don't even make marks.

If she charges a toddler and knocks them down she might be able to crush them a little with her weight, I guess lol.

Exactly. If my cat was the size of an average dog he would fuckin kill me and be a threat to the public. lol. But he is a mean little pussy so it doesnt matter.

I think this is the bottom line. If you want to risk your life with a Frankenstein dog, you are more than welcome to do so. THe problem is many of the Frankenstein-dog breed owners get off on intimidation. I don't want their dogs around my kids or me. I dont' want to be accosted by their dog on the beach while their retard owner slowly makes their way over to get their dog while saying, "ah he's alright, don't worry about him".

I don't like gov't control but I also don't like having to deal with dogs of peace. One of my best friends had a family dog that was a 150lb Rottweiler (mix with something i dont' remember). THat thing jumped on me every time I went to their house. It would put it's paws on my shoulders and throw me backward. That thing was scary and I didn't like visiting because i was never sure what that dog would do when the family was out of the room.

I had a friend with a Rot who did the same thing. Jump all over me. Wouldn't leave me alone. The owner can't control it for more than 5 seconds.

And it is a form of intimidation. If your dog is barking at me, YOU are barking at me. You are threatening me by proxy.

That would be 35-60 lbs. Not 125.

If its 125, its most likely a mastiff or Cane Corso

a sausage

Not only that, but many people lie and refer to their pit bull mix as a Lab, because most homeowners insurance won’t insure you if you have a pit, and many apartment buildings won’t let you rent with a pit.

There is no frickin way a Lab is more dangerous than a Rott. I have a lab, and even if it goes nuts and bites, it simply can not do remotely close to the damage a Rott can. The reason Labs have high bite rate is because they are the most popular dog, so sheer numbers raise the chance of someone somewhere getting bit.

 

[DragRacer]

The news fucked that up. Those dogs were 50 lbs each, tops.

If its 125, its most likely a mastiff or Cane Corso

What did your wife have in her pockets?

No food if that's what you're getting at but that shouldn't make a difference

Were they aggressive?

 

[Gervinho]

Always victim blame.....its funny seeing people act like pits are rationable and there is a reason for them snapping crazy. Its always the owner neglected them or made them crazy. Not that they are crazy by nature and can turn on anyone any moment

 

[AnGrYcRoW]

Were they aggressive?

Only If you call hunting someone aggressive

 

[n...not crazy]

If your dog is barking at me, YOU are barking at me. You are threatening me by proxy.

This is one of the most baffling things in our society. People think it's ok for their dog to act like it wants to fucking kill you. You walk around the neighborhood, stop by and talk to old Bill over his fence, and his dog gets let out of the house and goes nuts all aggressive like. And good old Bill just keeps on talking, doesn't notice at all. Like that's normal and acceptable. Hey Bill, I don't want to talk to you now if you're not going to control that animal. Good bye.

Only If you call hunting someone aggressive

You can get chased by dogs in a non-aggressive way. It's not that I'm trying to give you a hard time or anything, I know pitbulls are a problem at beaches.

 

[DragRacer]

Cue the Pitbull excuse list.

1. My PB is just a big old baby, and wouldn't hurt a fly.

2. It’s all the OWNERS fault , NOT THE BREED!

3. Mixed breed.

4. Pitbull pictures with babies, or small children.

5. Pitbull pictures with the dogs dressed in funny clothing.

6. And, the BEST one, "HOW DO THEY KNOW IT WAS A PITBULL. DID THEY DO A DNA TEST"?!

Always victim blame.....its funny seeing people act like pits are rationable and there is a reason for them snapping crazy. Its always the owner neglected them or made them crazy. Not that they are crazy by nature and can turn on anyone any moment

 

[Fronk]

100% of all pitbull owners are compensating for something.

Disgusting looking dog suitable only for disgusting human beings.

 

[AnGrYcRoW]

if there are no 125lbs pits,what the hell is this?

Not saying she's banging that dog but I can't rule it out
