2:56pm : call to Sheriff
2:58pm : pit bull attacks neighborhood dog in its own yard
3:04pm : two Sheriff's Deputies attempt to corral pit bull

If that pit bull is seen in this neighborhood again, I will be very
surprised. I'm sure I won't be the only one to contact the local
authorities to insist that either the dog is removed or that a high
fence is put around its yard.
Go ahead, Toby... tell me that pit bull wasn't a danger to the kids
getting off of their schoolbus. Tell me that we didn't perhaps avoid
the death of a child in this area thanks to the pit bull being spotted
and the quick response of the local Sheriff.
Tell me that I'd have been wrong to go out and handle the situation
myself had the local Sheriff not shown up. Go ahead.. tell me that BS,
Toby. Let's hear it. I'm waiting.

Jesus slick, what kind of neighborhood do you live in? You may want to
just move....I've driven through some sort of sketchy neighborhoods
before, and I don't ever recall the pit bull mayhem/rifles going off to
gun down pit bulls in the neighborhood kind of scenarios you have
described?
If that story is true though, of course the pit bull will be destroyed
and of course it should be. I don't think mercellus would disagree
with that.
???? riiight, that pit bull would have probably killed or seriously
injured your dog. Regardless, when a pit bull spars with another dog,
there isn't any "let em get it out of their systems". It's a fight to
the death(for one dog or another usually).

yes, this is how a lot of people get attacked. They have a pet or
whatever and then they try to separate the pit bull and the pet and
then the pitbull just shifts its focus. Note to mercellus: that
doesn't mean that the pit bull was unneccessarily "provoked" to attack
an innocent human.

Im guessing the pit bull newsgroup......you gotta admit it was pretty
tacky of slick to crosspost it. Since rsfc had already discussed it
and was familar with the previous happenings, slick should have just
kept it amongst us.
if you really cared for your dog, you wouldn't be so nonchalant about
the fight. Depending on how good a fighter your chow was and how good
the pit bull was, it's certainly feasible that the pit bull may not
maul the chow.....but it's not odds I'd want. Never mind the fact that
at a freakin pool party(or whatever it was) with plenty of people and
children it's never particularly appropriate to have a vicous dog
attacking a pit in the backyard...jesus.

It appears to me; but I understand that it MAY not be true, that pit bull
owners are some of the most degenerate people I know. I have never in my
life never met an owner of a pit-bull that had a college education, was a
white collar worker, or used a language that lacked those gruntish
four-letter words from our Germanic language roots' past.
I may have had bad luck but every pit bull owner I have come across has been
a low class "white trash" uneducated unproductive member of society.
No, I just got my words mixed up...I meant to call the pit bull the
vicous one.

To defend my apparent racial remarks, I live in a juristitstion that has
outlawed pit bull ownership for several years. This jurisdiction is a
cosmopolitan community where whites are a collective minority. However my
old juristition was predominately white. Most very rural areas around my
old jurisdiction are overwhelmingly white and in Canada the Mexicans haven't
invaded yet. I did not see black people until I moved to a big city of 5
million, where they had outlawed pit-bulls. The old jurisdiction was
practically all white allowed pit bull ownership.
However to be inclusive of all races I have noticed there are a rather large
percentage of Rotweilers with young black male owners using large heavy
rusty chains as leashes in my city. I have concern over this as it seems
to be cruelty to animals. These rottie owners also act and sound uneducated
and are employed in apparently dubious trades accroding to (newspaper and
radio reports) however I cannot confirm this. I do not understand the
language these particular Rottie owners use excpet those familar four-letter
words.
But I'm sure my eyes have deceived me.
White Trash isn't a race, it's a chosen way of life, just like choosing Pit
Bulls as pets. It just happens to be the honky crackers who have them.

Here in Toronto Us whites from Anglo-British backgrounds get called
mungy-cakes by the Italians and Portuguese. I keep telling them to call me
redneck instead but they do not understand why I would be honored to have a
sunburnt neck... But I'm supposed to be honored for eating cake........
None of us have pit-bulls. The Italians use mangy German Sheppards to
patrol the tow truck impound lots.

I live in a nice neighborhood. I have a pit who is kept in his yard -
with an electric fence. I had a neighbors with three pits, all of whom
were (take note of the words "had" and "were") out of their yards
frequently. Two of them came to my front door to harrass my pit. A
squirt gun filled with a very dilute mix of water and ammonia took care
of that. When those pits had killed several cats and dogs - all in
their own yards... not roaming freely.... the neighborhood association
took care of the matter. The pits are gone... and pets and children can
safely play in their yards and in the street again.
Pits are the owner's responsibility.... or the neighborhood associations
or the police if necessary.

You are the one who has turned it into a racial debate. Thuggy lowlifes are
in all ethnic and racial groups as well as white trash. White trash is a
metaphor. You have decided to deviate from the topic of pissing on pit bull
owners to pissing on metaphors. I would have suggested a new thread but
I'm only worth 2 cents....
Now take off your sensitivity skin suit and settle down and let's go back to
jabbing pit bulls owners in the eye....

Hello, nice to meet you. My name is Pangur Ban; I am a very productive
member of society; my family was college-educated also, and both were
white-collar workers. As stated above, I have multiple degrees, have
traveled extensively in the US and abroad (Egypt for a month was my last
holiday), and have a pit bull.
No kidding. Everyone knows its Newb.
Of course I'm not a man. I'm in sales. I have no shame. Only commissions

me up in lampshade if they open an account...... So I'm supposed to be

people do. Some use race to push buttons and some use gutter language and
others use money and others use sex. I'm a salesman. We cheat and lie.
Who Am I to point fingers at a racist?

I don't know where you are from but I reside in a modern liberally-minded
progressive metropolitan city that has too many people and a crumbling
infrastructure and is ballooning in size yearly.
In order to keep harmony in our city and to focus on raising our children
and fixing our bridges and keeping our water drinkable we joke around with
each other to let the tension off. The majority of residents of this city
were not raised in the city. They are from other parts of the country or
other nations period. If people have to joke with each other to keep the
streets safe then i'm for that. If everyone walked around with inflated
racial pride then we would have riots and chaos and a breakdown of social
order.
And the trendy of laughing at one's own race or ethnicity is NOT limited to
whites.
Fighting City Hall is a good fight, not false impressions of one's race.
We have been there in history before with very disastrous results.

You would be an exception to my experiences. I cannot see you with my eyes
so I have to go on faith here.
I am certainly positive there are well-grounded and exceptionally minded
pit-bull owners. I have never met one but I know they exist, somewhere.
There are also owners of very docile breeds of animals that train those
animals to become dangerous.
But there is a stigma to pit-bull ownership for most of those owners and you
cannot deny that stigma exists.

I was in the desert pottery shard hunting. I was following different
trails (can't dignify them with the name roads) when a puppy appeared on
the trail. I put him in my SUV and continued on the trail - which led
to a house. I discovered no one was home - except 2 pits (chained) who
had been fought and left untreated. No food for them or the pups; no
water for them or the pups. I called animal control - they knew where I
was as I hadn't a clue. I kept the puppy in my SUV and retreated down
the trail and secreted the SUV behind some pinon. Animal Control
arrived after about 45 minutes. I left - keeping the puppy. We were at
the vet's before the doors opened the next morning. The puppy was still
dehydrated and malnourished despite food and water as soon as we had
arrived at my home the previous evening.
He is an excellent companion, loves people, hates cows for some reason,
knows not to bark at horses, regards llamas as a puzzle deserving
careful watching and one soft puzzled woof, plays with the kitten, and
keeps an eye on me.

*nod* I understand that. I may not have chosen a pit - but somehow I
was chosen.
You're missing the point about this forum. People are defending pit
bulls in general, not specific pit bulls.

Did the pit bull attack a person?
What sort of dogs did it attack?
Were they being aggressive as well?
Maybe it was fighting with other aggressive animals; albeit, in their
own yards, but I'll bet they were being territorial; it's a dog eat dog
world out there Bryan Slick.
And, I could care less if you discharge a weapon in your neighborhood.
So what? The fact that you would put your immediate neighbors in danger
like that is a sad commentary on your "macho" insecurities regarding in
the matter.
Maybe your wife can be *your* apologist.

One of them was a large boxer type. The other I'm not sure about at
all.

They were in their own yards, you apologist twit. It doesn't matter if
they were dancing around on their hind legs while shooting pistols in
the air. They were in their own yards.

The above may be the stupidest argument you've made yet. What they were
doing in their own yards doesn't matter.. at all.
:And, I could care less if you discharge a weapon in your neighborhood.
:So what? The fact that you would put your immediate neighbors in danger
:like that is a sad commentary on your "macho" insecurities regarding in
:the matter.
That you'd mention the above is rather bizarre, as I've stated in the
past that I don't own a firearm.
If I did own a firearm, no one not actually in the sights of the weapon
would actually be in any danger, naturally. I was a professional
Soldier for eight years and those skills don't just vanish when the
uniform comes off.
That's not machismo at all, though it is interesting to observe what
passes for same in the small mind of someone such as yourself.
So, an animal being in their owner's yard absolves said owner of any
responsibility over their animal's actions? (This is exactly what your
statement above implies.)
This means that, say, I have an overly aggressive dog chained up in my
front yard (Boxers are highly territorial.) and another agressive dog
walks by, and my dog barks and growls and charges the dog, and they
start fighting. I would not be too surprised by this turn of events. I
would be upset over the fact that my dog was injured in my front yard,
but, I wouldn't jump to conclusions and assume that the stray dog is
now a danger to all humans in the neighborhood.
:So, an animal being in their owner's yard absolves said owner of any
:responsibility over their animal's actions? (This is exactly what your
:statement above implies.)
You are really being rather dense.
If your animal is on your property, and another dog invades said
property to attack your dog, the other dog's owner is entirely at fault.
This is not a hard concept.
I'm guessing this is your diatribe about why all pit bulls should be
killed, etc. All I see is a dog owner that isn't being responsible.
This loose dog should be rounded up by Animal Control. If this keeps
happening then some sort of action should be taken against the owner.
if the dog does attack other dogs or, God forbid, a child, then yeah, it
should be put down.
But what is your point in plastering this across Usenet if not to try to
make some lame point about "ban pit bulls"? Millions of pit bulls did
*not* attack or threaten to attack today. Where's your post about those
statistics?

* John Oliver http://www.john-oliver.net/ *
Not if the owner's dog is dancing around on its hind legs and shooting
pistols off in the air.
Someone could get hit by a stray bullet! (Great image by the way...made
me laff)
The following are my final thoughts on this subject, for your future
reference. (The following does not contradict anything I have ever
posted about dogs in this chatroom.)
1) Pet owners should be responsible and follow all laws and ordinances
for the location where they house their pet. This means obeying leash
laws, ordinances for aggressive breeds, etc. If they don't follow the
laws and local ordinances and property is destroyed, people are
injured, or lives lost, they should be held fully accountable and
brought up on whatever charges are available or legislated (destruction
of property, cruelty to animals, assault with a deadly weapon,
manslaughter, whatever... I ain't no lawyer.)
2) If an aggressive dog is running amok, the proper authorities should
be notifed. If you're in the middle of nowhere and the proper
authorities are not available, by all means, shoot to kill if you, your
family, or your animals are being threatened.
3) Not all Bulldog-Terrier mixes are created equal. The standard breed
is very loving and social around people. However, unscrupulous owners
may have trained their animal to watch over their drug pile and for
this reason, have made them vicious toward people. These dogs should be
destroyed in a humane manner.
4) Bulldog-Terrier mixes are naturally aggressive toward other
agressive dog breeds. This is a fact of life and owners should have the
common sense to make sure their dog is either socialized early or kept
apart from other dogs. (See #1 for my opinion on what should happen if
common sense is not used when owning a dog like this.)
5) Bulldog-Terrier mixes have a strong prey drive which comes from the
Terrier breed; bred to kill rats and small game. They will kill small
animals because this is inbred instinct. Again, an owner needs to be
aware of this and keep their animal away from small pets.
6) If a well-groomed dog with tags is running down the street, and you
assume it is a breed that is aggressive, and you take matters into your
own hands, and kill the animal, you are wrong. You may be right in the
eyes of whatever backwoods banjo-picking municipality has jurisdiction
over your white-trash life, but, you'd be wrong anyway.
<Bryan Slick> "If I saw your dog running down my street, I would kill
it." This is your original statement that caused all this.
Good bate dumbass.
HAND.
FOAD.
This is a problem with a lot of hunting dogs - Greyhounds are notorious
for having this problem and need to be carefully socialized with small
animals. Some take to it - some don't... and it depends on the small animal
in question. My greyhound would chase and kill a cat if it caught it at a
run. If the cat stopped and tried to defend itself in anyway, my dog would
run away.

SHEESH! You just don't get it. You seem to think it is somehow
acceptable for pit bulls to enter other people's property and attack
their pets or whatever, as long as after they do it the'll play nice
with real people. It's not. Pit bulls that enter other people's
property and attack their pets need to(and usually do) get destroyed.

who cares? They weren't the ones entering the owner of the pit bull's
yard to attack the pit bull.

; it's a dog eat dog
> world out there Bryan Slick.
and it's also an "animal control takes unruly dogs who attack others
pets in their own yard and puts a ****** lethal needle into them" world
out there, Mercellus.
I think socialization for animals with a strong prey drive has to be
imprinted pretty early on (by six months), or it's a lost cause. I
don't know this for a fact, but, I think it's true. In any event, I
don't have the energy to socialize Buster now with small animals. He
loves our other dog and hasn't snapped at him for many years
now---that's good enough.
He and the other dog (Kerby) are highly trainable, and will now sit and
stay at the open backyard patio door while I stomp around quickly to
scare off any unsuspecting critters that may have wandered into the
valley of death.
They both treed a 30-40 pound Big Mama Racoon one night. Racoons are so
vicious. Kerby would have run off to the safety of his crate inside,
while Buster would have died trying. It would have been a bloodbath had
I not gotten them both inside in time.
Hey, pictures for the cross-posted...
Yeah, the whole neighborhood has to change it's behavior just becuase
Mercellus wants a pitbull.
That's just wonderful but one thing for sure, if he come on my property
and does any harm to my pets, guests, or family members, he'll be
filled with buck shot and I'll sue your ass for the cost of the shell.
whatever you say Cletus [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cletus_Spuckler]
Definitely not true - or no greyhounds anywhere would be good around
small animals, and that definitely isn't the case. They've been bred and
trained to do nothing but chase small animals up to the point they retire
(which is usually a minimum of 2 years, ranging up to 10 or so for a
brood female) - and quite a lot fo them can be socialized to small animals.
The most entertaining thing one must teach a greyhound coming off the track
is how to climb stairs. They've never done it, have no idea how to do it,
and definitely are not the correct body type to learn stair climbing.

Thanks for clearing up my misinformation on this topic. [bate.383.3]
I'll have to find out about how to do that with Buster.
The "trial and error approach" is contraindicated I would think.

Thanks John..........................All i see in these posts are a bunch of
people that think everyone that anyone that owns a pit bull is white trash,
uneducated and have no control of their dogs...........Little do they know
that all of the above is a bunch of muck. Seems they are the uneducated
ones, the ones full of hate and violent thoughts and actions. Most of the
people that post in the pit bull newsgroup own "pets" and have been a part
of this newsgroup for years!!!!! We all own dogs that are loved and cared
for, that live with other dogs, children and families and are thought of as
a family member. People shouldn't be so one sided in their opinions and
should really think before they jump to conclusions and point
fingers...................
There are a number of methods, and SOME dogs just can't be socialized
to small animals (or children, or etc.).

Umm... yah.

Here are some 'educated' pit bull owners and their 'deadly weapons'.

And the most violent vile attack of all, and the owner instigates this one
on command.

I should be able to raise Bengal Tigers in my back-yard. They are
threatened as a species and I care for protecting what little of the planet
we have left. It's just my small part in preserving our nature for future
generations.
works for me, probably as safe to the neighbors as a Pit Bull.
I find them quite amusing Bob, it is interesting to read about what other
people think in regards to the persona of pit bull owners.
Oh crap....here I go.......I was gonna just leave it at that, but.....
I find it interesting to read about people who have loaded shotguns in their
house, with children residing in that said house. But then again, I think
WOW, look at that fucking idiot mother with the baby carriage crossing this
busy 8 lane street as soon as the light turns green without even checking
left or right to see if everyone has stopped or is stopping. [Am I a little
hypersensitive?]
I find it interesting to read about a man who can entertain himself by
letting a loose pitbull attack his dog while his family watches, then grab
the pitbull with his bare hands and stick his fingers into it's eye sockets
and pull it's eyeballs out, then blow it's head off with a 12 gauge.
I find that somewhat trashy.
Is it just me?
Or
Could it all have been prevented with a little common sense?

Meanwhile he uses his sister to get ragdolled for him while he checks to see
