https://www.foxnews.com/us/texas-pet-owner-dead-attacked-by-her-two-pit-bull-terriers-policethis happened in tx ………………………………………………………... my neighbors pit bull and another dog that looks part german shepard did this to my grand daughters miniature pony on tuesday. pit bulls head had blood all over it. my wife chased both dogs off no question what did it. pony was still alive at that point. guy is making it right money wise and already shot both dogs. no clue why anybody would keep one for a pet. this pony had never been cut. it was a stallion before that dog got it. it was on a lead to graze the green grass that's coming back. got tangled in it trying to fight back and went down.

I know several people in the area that constantly stick up for the "falsely maligned" pits. They get them as rescue dogs, brag about how gentle they are and some even keep them around their small children.
Some of them are tough guys who enjoy the notoriety of owning pits, all of them are "low-intelligence" people.
Eh...wot?

Geeze Danny.. I'd be so POed Glad the guy is making it right but that still hard deal. There are people i my neighbor hood with pits and I carry now when walking my dogs. I worked with a guy that is a part of that Pit bull rescue thing. He was always fostering dogs until they were put back out with new people. I never trusted them dogs just heard to many bad story's.

guy raised both those dogs from puppies. I think it hurt him as bad to shoot them as it hurt my granddaughter to be told her pony was dead. (she didn't see it thank goodness) I could see using pits as catch dogs when hog hunting. they seem to be good at it. but the dogs need to be in a kennel when not being set on a hog. I really don't see any other reason to have one.

I hunt with guys who use pits as catch dogs. Funny thing about them is they act and behave completely different than pet pits . I believe it's cause they have a job and an outlet for their aggression.
They're also treated almost like a firearm . On leads in the truck until it's time to go to work , back on leads after the job is done , and kenneled at home. I won't keep one even though I know our crew could use another bulldog.

Many years ago when my older brother was still running rescue calls. He went to a dog attack call said was the biggest mess he ever seen. Young gal about 20 was visiting back at parents home and they had a German Shepard. So she wasn't totally unfamiliar to the dog. She was feeding french fries or something and it went nuts. Started ripping her to shreds. Her younger brother tried to pull the dog off her and got bite up some and mom couldn't stop it. Mom called 911 boy got a gun shot the dog off his sister. I think first cop that got there shot and finished dog off. Dog was dead when my brother got there as a medic. He said it was like a horror picture how bad that gal was ripped up..so it isn't always pits. I knew another guy had side of his face took off my Saint Bernard. Did go to a medical call once myself years back. Guy walking a bit bull on a leash. Passed a guy on side walk dog jump up grabbed guy almost in the crotch. Just one bite didn't get him real bad. But all he was doing was walking past on public side walk..Lot of dog stories out there.

That right there is what I would say is being a responsible owner while there are too many owners that are ignorant of their dogs potential.

pits, rotty's and pinchers are all junk dogs to me.
