Breed of peace strikes again

Yes, it CAN happen with any breed of dog. Just so happens that it rarely, if ever, happens with other breeds.

And shite, man...those babies are tiny and helpless. That's sad as hell.

When will someone say the quiet part out loud that we should just end this breed entirely? They aren't working dogs. They just snap, seemingly at random.

The irony here. Since the person who originally posted this was asking for prayers for the family, then immediately says don't blame the breed; is actually blaming the parents, that she wants us to pray for, for how they raised those dogs.

Good point. The Breed of Peace has learned it's lesson and does not kill since then. Glad you pointed this out.

Which 'breed' are we talking about again?

Says it’s unimaginable? Pretty sure if I see a pitbull I immediately think “ will this thing maul me?” Never thought that way about any other dog breed..

I was walking the neighborhood one afternoon earlier this year. Had my earbuds in, but heard this woman screaming for her life in her backyard. I ran over to the fence and asked if she needed help. In between her screams she said ‘ yes! Front doors unlocked come in and grab the shovel by the back door as you come out ‘ … so I did.

Walked through the house and grabbed the shovel. Saw two pit bulls attacking something on the ground. Thought it was a kid. Get closer and realize they’re attacking another dog. I start towards the pile and the lady is trying to pull the bigger pit bull out of the attack, to no avail. I run towards the pile and the smaller pit has its back turned to me, so I immediately hit it in its arse with the shovel and it runs off a little, but starts pacing around the smaller dog again, but never attacks as I yell at it and threaten it with the shovel. I ask the lady for permission to wallop the bigger dog with the shovel in the head. She said ‘ do it ‘. So I wail about 3 times with the shovel upside it’s head and it had no effect. So I start going harder with it. After about 5 more hits, and the owner yelling at it, it looks me in the eyes ( and it’s the first time in my life I’ve ever seen that ‘ bloodlust ‘ look ) but it relinquished its hold, probably more out of annoyance of me hitting it and maybe the realization that I wasn’t trying to hurt the owner and with the owners yelling, it may have registered that it was frigging up. The dog they were attacking limps into the house, wailing and moaning. It was then I was able to notice a third pit bull that her son ( probably 12 ) was holding on a leash, off to the side.

She told me the dog they were attacking was a runt and they never liked it. She was unaware the runt was outside when she let them out to use the bathroom, because apparently this isn’t the first time they’ve tried attacking it, but her husband wasn’t home to help. Anyways, call the police just to document. The lady looked like she survived a murder. Blood was everywhere on her and her shoes and I was covered in it from my shoes to my shirt and face. Police said there was nothing they could do, after verifying she owned the dogs. The runt was in a bad way.. there was a massive blood trail from the site of the attack through the back door and up the stairs of the house. She said she was going to check on it and her husband was on the way home to take it to the ER vet.

I went home after and cleaned up and walked back to her house an hour later to check up. The woman opens the door and the big pit bull, who was the main aggressor, is just sitting there with the 12 year old, watching TV, the son is petting it and its face still covered in blood. I told her I’d think about putting those 2 down because I wouldn’t trust them around the kid and they had another child, who wasn’t home at the time. I don’t know if they eventually did, but I don’t hear the amount of barking I usually do, coming from that house anymore, like I used to.

It also surprised me, because when I opened the door initially to go out back, there was a large Great Dane that came up to just below my chest, that greeted me with excited barks as I entered the house. Just wayyyyy too many dogs, especially for a woman her size and a child to control. Which, I think is a problem people have too. It wasn’t like I was ever going to own a pitbull, but after that day, I’m d@mn sure not.

I'd never understand anyone's Pitbull Fetish. Just not a risk worth accepting.

That's because you're a rationally thinking human being whose sole purpose in life is not focused on living up to a cultural status symbol and getting social media cred
