An 83-year-old man has been mauled to death by a pack of four dogs near his home in Florida.
Michael Downing was killed by his neighbour’s dogs near his home in Jacksonville at around 4pm on Friday, according to officials.
Neighbours discovered Mr Downing’s body by a set of bins next to his and the dog owner’s homes. He had been dismembered and was barely recognizable, WFTV9 reports.
“By far it’s probably the worst things I’ve ever seen in my life,” Mackenzie Partin told the broadcaster. “There was only 30 per cent left of his body.”

From another story on the attack....
quote:
Michael Jason Downing, who lived at the Franklin Arms Apartments at 888 Franklin St., was found dead in the backyard of a home in the 1100 block of Jessie Street shortly after 4 p.m.
The owner of the dogs told The Times-Union that he was away from the house at the time of the attack. It was not clear how the dogs got to Downing, though he may have been pulled under a fence, authorities said.
The fence separates the yard and a parking lot for the apartment complex where residents dispose of trash into dumpsters.
Neighbors who live in the apartment complex pointed out holes in the fence Monday and said the dogs were able to slip through from time to time. Some of the holes are now covered by wooden fencing or boards.
The four dogs, aged 3 to 5 years old, include a rottweiler and three that are mixed breeds consisting of German shepherd, rottweiler, and chow chow.

The neighbor said the dogs treated Downing like a “rag doll,” ripping off his legs and tearing flesh from his head and arms.

No pit no care. This is the equivalent of a non-white police officer shooting somebody.

My experience with dog owners is that most, not all, but most, are trashy. I know that transcends all races and genders and will get alot of hate but it's been my personal experience with most dog owners. How anyone lets an animal take a shite, no wipe, and then go plop their shitty butthole right on the couch cushions and pillows is beyond me. How do so many people just look right past this? It's beyond gross.

Almost any large dog breed can be raised and trained to be vicious like that.
My vet told us about a golden retriever he had to put down that attacked a couple neighborhood kids really viciously. And that's like the sweetest breed there is.
ETA:
This is not a reference to pit bulls, but to Rotties and Germans that have bad reps that aren't warranted. They just seem to be favorites of trashy folks that train them to be mean as frick. Pits definitely have that ever present ability to just snap on anyone though.

Is it bad I am not surprised this happened in Florida?

Owner of the dogs should be executed.
