There is a flip side to that….Never leave unattended children around small dogs and puppies.

The courts ordered the dog to be evaluated and he passed it with flying colors. They say that he doesn't have a mean bone in his body. They think that when the baby was crying, he went to pick it up, to console it and play with it. He doesn't display any aggression at all. When they gave him a doll of the same size that was inside a bassinet, they made the doll cry and pretended to walk out of the room to see what type of reaction the dog would have. He licked the doll and whimpered when the doll cried, then he went to put his mouth over the dolls head to gently pick it up. Court hearings are still pending, the dog is only 8months old. The bite that killed the infant was because the dogs bottom canine pierced the juggler vein. Horrible, horrible, accident. But if they didn't have the dog evaluated, he was deemed to be destroyed, and labeled vicious. I hope that the judge is a dog lover and that the puppy is placed in an adult home only. Lesson is never leave any dog, no matter what size it is, unattended around children. Accidents can happen. -------Original Message------- From: Pam Dean Date: 4/26/2012 4:02:26 PM To: Chihuahuas@yahoogroups.com Subject: Re: [Chihuahuas] pit bulls Actually innocent people, children, and beloved pets are going to be ones to pay the price. Any dog who attacks humans or kills another dog or cat, should be put down. For me there is no gray area there, no justification. -------------------------------------------------------------------------- From: Mary Nellum <maryk...@gmail.com> To: Chihuahuas@yahoogroups.com Sent: Thursday, April 26, 2012 3:20 PM Subject: RE: [Chihuahuas] pit bulls Oh how awful L I would be scared too. I completely agree with the other poster who said to secure your side of the fence and contact Animal Control. Call AC as many times as you need to if your neighbors will not listen to your concerns. You’re right – the safety of your family and the entire neighborhood is at risk. The ones you should be most afraid of are the humans – they’re either ignoring the needs of their high energy dogs or encouraging their bad behavior – and unfortunately the dogs are going to be the ones to pay the price L Mary From: Chihuahuas@yahoogroups.com [mailto:Chihuahuas@yahoogroups.com] On Behalf Of Yorkiluvr Sent: Thursday, April 26, 2012 12:11 AM To: Chihuahuas@yahoogroups.com Subject: [Chihuahuas] pit bulls My brother had a pit that he raised from a puppy & Petey listened & was well mannered & so I let my guard down around them. I blame their bad behavior on the owner. A few years ago I was visiting a friend & she had a shar/pit mix & a pit in her home. She said she fed them table food so when I finished eating I divided my food in half & gave it to them. The pit was on the sofa beside me & she looked up at me & bit me in the nose & I drove myself to the ER & got stitches on both sides of my nose outside, inside & on the inner septum. The police came & took a report. After that I would tell my boys that no matter what pets we had that they should never put their face in harms way. Now my next door neighbors have a fenced yard that divides my property from them & their 2 pits & poodle & occasionally the pits escape under the fence. Yesterday I was gardening & one of them charged at me barking ferociously & was ready to attack me. The fence was the only thing keeping me safe & I was on my knees pulling weeds & it scared the crap out of me & made me mad as well!! I would never harm any animal but I'm so fearful of these 2 pits that I am ready to contact animal control to see if any action can be taken to protect me & my pets. A few years ago they lived in a different home & had one pit & he killed a rott & they bragged about how they could hear the bones crunching as their dog refused to release his grip on the other dog which had to be put down at the vets office due to the severity of his injuries. I am pretty passive & try to let things slide, but I'm at the point now that I'm really, really, scared & something has to be done to protect my neighborhood, my pets & my family. I'd probably do something awful if their pits ever got one of my babies!!
