S.C. Mom and Young Children, 2 and 4, Are Hospitalized in Dog Attack While Helping Elderly Neighbor

quote:


Bethany Hastings and her two kids, 4-year-old daughter Lainey Bayles and her 2-year-old son, were reportedly escorting their elderly neighbor with dementia back to her home on the family golf cart, after they spotted her wandering on their Bonneau, S.C., property.

When they returned the neighbor to her home, her pit bull allegedly lunged into the cart.

Lainey told the outlet she remembered the dog initially went after her little brother.

"First he got my brother, and then second he got me, and then third he got my mom," Lainey recalled.

Hastings told the station she managed to rip the pit bull off her kids and held it down for 15 "terrifying" minutes while they waited for help to arrive.

"I didn't have a choice," the mom of two told WJCL. "If I had let go, he would have gotten me or them again."

quote:


"She was repeatedly bitten by the dog on her face and from fire ants all over her body until help arrived. During that time, she had to endure watching her children screaming for her while they bled."

According to WJCL, Hastings and her son were released from the hospital that same night, but Lainey, who suffered the most severe injuries to her face, was admitted for four days.

"They (doctors) hadn't quite seen anything like that before to that extent, with that much damage," Hastings said of her daughter's injuries.

The outlet reports Lainey will be forced to undergo multiple facial surgeries over the course of the next year.

Good job mom. Should have bashed his head in or gauged his eyes out. I hope the dog is dead.

It's a bad breed but what exactly do you propose? That we kill every single pit bull on the planet?

Why does the OT only cover pitbull attacks?

That seems unworkable, but I'd be happy with making the breed illegal and having them die out. Or severe penalties for owners in these situations.

As dog lover, I would have zero problem with that solution.

I wonder what percentage of these attacks involve so called "blue" pits. Apparently that specific kind of pit are bred to become huge assholes.

That sounds fairly reasonable.

Because they are the most frequent and cause the most damage?

Usually doesn't make news when the neighborhood Karen's yorkie bites at the end of my pant leg while I am getting my mail.

Same reason the ot seems to only cover teachers with students....it's the most prevalent of that type of behavior.

Blue is just the color of the fur. It's really Grey. Some have a red nose and some have a bluish nose.

The color of their skin has zero to do with their temperament.
