That is some strong logic. Pit bull owners everywhere would be proud.

Where does dogs' owner plan on keeping dog 2 as mauled child family certainly now owns owner's house and all assets?

Dog #2 was SAVING that child!

Only a good dog with teeth can protect against a bad dog with teeth.

hey you married it

Note that diddy didn’t say what side of the litigation his wife was involved with

I had a custody case a few years back where my client's special needs daughter got bitten in the face by one of client's boyfriend's pit bulls, and the dad, understandably, went for full custody. We ended up agreeing on a compromise arrangement before trial, but I wouldn't have felt particularly bad about losing that one.

Did the dad get to kill the dog in front of his daughter?

I actually don't remember what happened to the dog. To quote Jiang Zemin, "I think never killed."

I'm surprised the guy doesn't want to make the kid shoot the dog.

Nah. That could traumatize the poor kid.

*wild rugby appeared!*

I think every child should have to slaughter a beloved pet at least once or risk turning gay.

Agreed.

Day #24: Pit Bull Sharky with my son Cornelius

The two dogs were just arguing over who gets to eat the kid first.

My friend tonight came to pick me up for dinner, he has two dogs one a small docile sky terrier the other a 75 lb min very muscular, agile female pitbull. The cabin I rent is on 4 acres and my landlord rents a rent site to another fellow who adopted a kitten 4 months ago he lives 100+ yards away in a wooded area. The owner of the cat came home while the pit bull was roaming my yard off leash, cat comes out to great him boom the pitbull just mauls and disemboweled the cat in front of its owner within about 10 seconds.

Truly horrible and I feel responsible for not being more situationally aware, in addition the owner of the pitbull was less than contrite spouting off about how the cat had some roll in what happened.

I've been around this dog many times and own a 8lb chihuahua mix felt fine allowing them to mix but no longer. I may have been on the fence about restricting ownership of certain breeds but having buried my neighbor/friends disemboweled kitten and seen the semi cavalier attitude of the owner it really opened my eyes to the situation. The owner of this pit fancies himself something of a Cesar Milan disciple and swears he has control over the dog which largely I'd agree with, however circumstances aroused which he was not prepared for and in an instant that dog was ragdolling poor little smitty like some chew toy.

This dog is likely capable physically of mauling to death 9r serious injury the vast majority of able bodied people. Smitty's owner was devastated, my landlords wife comforted the dying cat after it escaped Java's maw to die underneath their RV.

Truly awful, next time I see an off leash dog of that size I'm going to see that it is contained.

JFC that's beyond horrible. I can't even make a snarky comment.

Yeah that dog is clearly a timebomb and should be put down. You should tell your friend to prepare for the next time circumstances arise which he isn't prepared for, but it's a little kid this time.

I rescued a kitten from the jaws of an aggressive husky in my neighborhood one time. Luckily they aren't as efficient killing machines. I picked the husky up by his collar, twisted, and he dropped the kitten.

A pitbull is never dropping the kitten, and if they somehow do you never know if they're going to go for your throat or nuts immediately after.

I really don’t believe that pit bull lovers love the breed in an unselfish way. We will hear all kind of excuses like it must not be a “real” pit because it they don’t get to 75lbs, that suzzer’s post proves any dog will do that, the owner is clearly a douche so it’s the owner’s fault...but that dog is very likely to be put down at some point for just doing what comes to it naturally. It’s going to be the final victim of the selfish choice to have an inappropriate pet by a human because they prefer that kinda dog and it makes them feel a certain way to own it.

Only silver lining in the whole dreadful situation is I think it may result in adjustment over how he handles that dog. The cat owner doesn't want to involve police and owner of dog has faced serious consequences before resulting from this animal.

He brought the dog to a public park 1+ years ago was confronted by someone who demanded the dog be leashed on the basis that his daughter had been nearly mauled to death by. a similar breed. My friend temporarily leashed the dog, then let it back off. At some point the objecting party returned confronted my friend grabbed a hold of Javas collar not letting go until animal control/authorities arrived. My friend broke this guys nose for not letting go of the collar on the grounds he pushed first but that whole episode looks different now after witnessing first hand his reaction to the death of my neighbors cat.

He was nearly indignant in person until told to leave, threatened with legal action etc. Some people are just unapologetic apologists for dangerous dogs regardless of of the facts.

Dude - I was trying to be nice in my previous post but your friend is a bonafide *******.

This dog is sweet generally speaking, to me and other dogs but it has a thing for cats. Yea my friend is dickhead for the way he handled things and dont know how I'll be close with him going forward. It could have been my dog or heaven forbid landlords children and there's just no way your getting the attack stopped without a firearm or powerful weapon. Dog is a leathal weapon needs to be treated as such.

Pits are always nice until they're not. And to be fair - most of the time - 99.9%? - they're fine. It's just the damage they do when they're not fine.

My buddy has two really old pits. Knowing they haven't mauled any toddlers in their lives, and seeing them hobble around and pee all over the place, I'm finally comfortable around them. But 10 years ago I was terrified to stay at his house when I went back to KC. Like if I go to the kitchen at 2am to get some water - are they going to forget who I am and shred me?

The male has the biggest head on any pit I've ever seen. It's a freaking cinder block. Or it was. It definitely has shrunk.

When they were young, we'd play cards while they wrestled under the table. I would just imagine his jaws clamped on my nuts and never felt comfortable.

When I last saw him he was actually a few days from putting the male down. I told him he should at least offer up a toddler as a last meal. A good laugh was had by all. My friend rescued these dogs and was never unrealistic about their potential for harm.

Terrible experience.

Not sure I would spend any more time with a friend that has acted the way he did.
