Very selfish having a big dog unleashed at a park. Kids could have allergies, be scared of dogs or your dog could snap.

Just like the trash guy that let's his Rottweiler walk around the park near a playground. If im a parent im not letting my kid play with a giant dog. Not worth the risk.

Another kid is going to accidentally run into his and get mauled.

She and her husband should be charged with murder, what the **** is the penalty for "attack by a dangerous dog"? Just some sort of fine? That sounds like an incredibly minor crime.

You owning a pit explains a lot


Well, based on my posts on this website, you would know the following about me:

1. I didn't buy the covid/vax narrative
2. I support free market economics
3. I believe in border control
4. I support the 2nd amendment.
5. I'm against spending taxpayer money on Ukraine.
6. I love Aggie sports.
7. I like movies.
8. I'm a Buddhist.
9. I believe in aliens.

So, how does owning a pit bull explain those?

Murder sounds great, but legally there is a better fit under Sec. 822.005, a second degree felony in Texas.Link

This came about a few years back with "Lilian's Law" in Texas.
Quote:

Link Austin, TX - Lillian's Law (HB 1355) is the new Texas State dangerous dog law. Under the law, the owner of a loose dog that causes injury or death can be prosecuted if the owner is found to be "criminally negligent" in failing to prevent the dog from escaping. The third-degree felony charge can bring a sentence of 2 to 10 years in prison and a $10,000 fine. If the victim dies, a dog owner can be charged with a second-degree felony, bringing up to 20 years in prison.

This killer dog owning Chola got 5 years in prison.

The trash couple that owned the pit bulls was acquitted by a jury.
They faced up to 20 years in prison and a $10k fine.

I used to take mine to work everyday, in a 650 or so employee plant, and the office ladies would paint her nails and dress her up. She would walk to work with me through the park, about 25K employees all walking into and out of the park and had a great time doing so.

Leave your trash dog at home when you go to the park. And put a freaking leash on your dog as well. I do realize that's asking a lot from pit bull guy.

I'm laughing. I really am. That's pretty funny.

But back to serious business. Any success in getting them banned yet?

All stray pit bulls who are not chipped should be put down.

Pit Bull owners should be required to carry extra insurance and possibly held liable in the case of an attack where injury occurs.

Wife works with burns and dog attacks. They are mostly pit Bull attacks and they tear flesh which is hard to repair.

Common story…..was always a friendly dog…..

In South Korea Pit bulls are banned from public dog parks.

If you have a problem with a neighbors pit Bull. Get rid of them yourself…..quietly. Otherwise it is next to impossible to get help to deal with a dangerous pit Bull.

Love the casual disregard why PB's are dangerous. Wife works with burns. Grandmother attempts to let her sons PB's out to wee. GM is also watching 4 year old grand daughter. PB's who are described as "Loving Dog's" snap and attack GM & GD. GM is able to push GD into hall closet for protect

Son comes home from work. The "Loving PB's" have deg loved GM from elbows to hands and from knees to feet. Really a horrific scene.

…..and the only thing you can come up with is my forward remark that stray and loose PB's should be killed.

How about….if you are an owner be responsible…..have insurance to take care of victims for potential horrific injury and so be shocked if your loving PB gets offed if they get out and run loose.

The problem people won't get insurance. The problem people need to go to prison. We need a no tolerance policy. If dogs hurt someone while roaming without ID, euthanize them immediately. There should be a minimum 30 day jail sentence or something for ANY bite, no matter how minor, if the dog bites on someone else's property. More severe injuries or death should be punished much more seriously. It needs to be painful enough to the dog's owner they decide its not worth it to have such an animal. We'll never get there, but were not even trying.

I dont understand how bans are enforced. How do you define pit bull? Who IDs them? Punishing the dog owners severely is a start and don't brush aside minor incidents. Trash people will breed trash dogs. Maybe require a license if you want to breed dogs? The trash wont do that, so when they're reported, the animals can be seized. With hundreds of thousands of homeless animals out there, i don't feel bad about euthanizing potentially dangerous ones. You can say its not their fault but what else are we supposed to do.

PittBulls in animal shelter

I will try to find a follow up article but I believe these pit bulls were released back into a subdivision full of Cats and children. Police finally came picked up and euthanized the dogs after residents promised lots of illegal gunfire in their neighborhood!

Yes, pits are genetically dangerous animals


This is all I need to know about your comments.

I was raised in a family that raised, showed, bred, sold, hunted, tracked, and trained sporting dogs. Never once was I in fear that our animals would respond or react with the kind of malice that Pit Bulls were BRED to do…

Genetics plain and simple, the root cause of everything evil about ****bulls

ALL dogs are dangerous animals.

I was never in fear of my dog but I was worried once my wife and I brought our third daughter home from hospital after she was born.

Knowing our dog's breed, I kept a keen eye on him, especially when he always seemed to be around our new infant.

I did not want him around her alone because I was sincerely worried.

He followed her everywhere, whether she was in her crib, in a bouncer, in a bumbo seat, or in the swing.

He would sniff her regularly.

I thought he might be confused as to whether he thought she was part of our pack, a threat, or was a potential meal.

Then one day it clicked.

My daughter was in the swing sleeping and my dog was lying down, totally calm, right next to the swing.

I realized that from the time I brought my daughter home, he KNEW it was his job to protect her. THAT is why he never left her side.

I never worried about him again.

Whoever said pits are "nanny dogs" was correct. They simply need proper leadership, something that is lacking today both with regards to dogs and regarding children.

This.

Any dog needs at least some training. Some dogs need a LOT of training. And some need continual work and training. Pit Bulls need continual training and work. Most people want a "buy and forget" dog that they pet occasionally, sits next to them on the couch or floor, gets fed and let outside to crap & pee, and thats about it.

Then most people choose a breed based on appearance or "I've always wanted one", or "thats what the kids want" with very little thought to the needs of the dog/breed or what potential changes could be on the horizon during the dog's life (kids, moves, etc).

A dog is not a throw pillow and with ownership comes responsibilities beyond mere maintenance (food, vet, etc.). If you are not willing to take on the responsibilities that come with the breed of dog you are getting (and this is ANY dog) you shouldn't get it. It's a living thing that brings obligation to the owner as well as everything else.

But most people put no thought into it beyond "having a dog would be cool". Change that problem and many/most of these problems go away.

Let's be honest. People buy pit bulls because they are attracted to the danger or the mystique of danger. It attracts the worst of pet owner types. While you may be a great dog parent, many neighbors are not. If a certain level of dog training is required to keep a pit bull safe, then license or certification might be appropriate, with associated liability.

GOT DAMN THAT DOG IS ADORABLE

I know people who bought pits simply because they work in a dangerous field and have wives/daughters at home. You know what breed scares the bejesus out of thugs? Pit bulls. So they're perfect for people employed in certain professions where they might be the recipient of threats from thugs and people in thug culture.

I have a friend who owns an English bull mastiff. She is 5'3 and 120 lbs soaking wet. She is also incredibly beautiful (no on rule 1). When she goes out alone for a walk, she wants protection. When he was 9 month old, he clamped down on the forearm of a guy who wouldn't stop harassing her despite her repeated attempts to tell him to leave her alone. The guy tried to grab her and he lunged. Brought the guy screaming to his knees. When the police came, there were enough witnesses to what happened that the dog was not quarantined.

He also took out a coyote that was stalking her one night when she was walking him. He is incredibly gentle once you get to know him and he's assured you aren't a threat to her. I'd guess he's about 180-190 lbs. My only concern with him is if he attacked the wrong person, she physically wouldn't be able to restrain him. However, she's trained him well and is attentive when he's around other people. He's also incredibly gentle with other dogs and her cat sleeps on top of him.

She put the time in to train him and she can control him. A lot of women want to have big dogs for safety reasons but the key is they need to be trained. This means having a plan on what to do if they attack the wrong person or another dog.

The only issue I've ever seen with women who own pits is they aren't physically capable of restraining their dog when they attacked another dog. That is an owner issue, not a dog issue.

"Why did you say I made a 'tough guy' post after I posted, "Look how tough I am!! I'd kill an aggressive dog as easily as breathing" '?

You're not being serious with this line of questioning, are you?

This is a reason to own a dog such as a pit bull.

But that's acknowledging the breed is aggressive and can do harm to humans. It's more honest than most pit bull owners in the suburbs.

If pit bull owners want the dog for protection, just admit it. But don't play dumb and pretend the breed is innocent and trust worthy around children, women, or the elderly.

70%+ of fatal dog attacks are pit bulls. Obviously they are a good breed for defending family or property, but with that comes a risk that they attack an innocent person.
