Current Events > Im mow on team "f*** pitbulls". Dog and i were just attacked

(+) Yeah! (+)

I'm out doin yard work, my dog is out with me on a harness. I hear a sound like a fuxking car coming through my garage and fence and this big blackbpitbull dragging an industrial sized chain comes out of the brush and makes a beeline for my dog, instant attack with no provocation. My dude was perked up, tail wagging thinking was a new friend.
He grabs my dog by the head and ear and I started kicking the fuck out of it. I used to be able to launch dudes across the room in TKD, no effect on this dog. I then took a weed whip to it's ass and it didnt even phase it. Start punching it, same thing. It's trying to rip my dogs face off so I grab it and my dog trying to seperate but not let the pit get leverage. I get knocked on my ass and try to put my thumbs through its eyes. I had work gloves on so it didnt work but got his attention enough to let go and back up. Comes right back at us. I'm on my back kicking it in the face but it got through and latched back on to my dog.
Theres a police station right next to my house and luckily theubheard the noise and came over. Cop was beating it with a baton and shocking it with the baton and it still wouldn't stop. Some dude came over and he was massive and just stepped on the dogs neck and it finally let go.

My dog lost half his ear, has a massive puncture in his chest, multiple punctures in his head but he will live. I got bit bad on both arms, one bite was almost an inch deep and an inch and a half wide and is bruised and swollen. Stitches. Trashy fucking neighbor comes over and has like no emotion, I got a half hearted apology. I'm going to sue the ever loving shit out of these hillbillies, and already got the OK from the sherrif to shoot any of their 3 dogs if they're on my property. I now have to carry a pistol on me any time I go outside. I dont blame the dog and I'm not mad at it. BUT I think too many people cannot control them and do not respect that they have basically a weapon. I've never felt so powerless before, and I think unfortunately it's time to ban pits. Grandfather in existing dogs since most are harmless, but ban the breed. Had that been one of my actual children, let's just say I'd be in jail right now talking to my attorney.
And I do have pics to prove I'm not trolling but that would get me nodded for gore, they're pretty bad.

How was your day CE lol

Excuse the atrocious spelling and grammar, I've had a few and my ar has like no strength right now

Damn dude glad you and your buddy are ok holy fuck

nah, they're all ticking time bombs. forced euthanasia for every pitt, breed banned, minimum 10 year prison sentence if someone is found to own or breed them

they're not dogs, they're devilspawn that crawled out from the pitts of hell

Fuck pitbulls

Blood was everywhere

This just sounds like trauma.

Also start carrying a gun. If it ever happens again just shoot it in the heart and lungs.

---

That sounds like a awful set of people in general. If you do sue them, make sure to take pictures of the damage they did to you and your dog. I know it seems silly, considering, but make sure you have pictures and evidence of all the damage. Even if it is long lasting, it'll help your case regardless. Best to do it fresh, but that isn't much an option.

In any case, the fuck is with the pitbull hate lol?

I have a pitbull that is scared of flies and plastic bags, and loves every single person he's ever met(which will be awkward if there's ever a break in, but whatver, I love the little guy).

You guys are all overreacting. Bad owners = bad animals.

Jesus fucking Christ, man.
---

Is there any point in saying not all pitbulls are like that? The ones I've met are usually super friendly.
---

Less important opinion - they aren't even fucking cute or soft. They just have that super thin slippery fur

Glad you're all relatively okay. Hope you sue the fuck out of them and get paid. People like that owner deserve what's coming to them, they have zero regard for anyone but themselves

---

Fuck people that don't know how to train and control their dogs

Just may have to outlaw the breed because dumb fucks get these dogs and don't properly do anything

I've grown up with many pitbulls but my family actually trained our dogs.

But with someone having such a horrible experience we shouldn't bring that into this topic. Let TC vent.

Damn bro Im sorry that happened to you but frankly you sound like a dumbass

It probably just has terrible owners. Things can be disastrous of pitbulls are not cared for properly

i would have went to gouge its eyes out as a first response

No, because people who have bad experiences spread the opinion that they're the worst. You'll always be wrong, because they don't care. Pitts are just very deadly(like all dogs their size) if you are a shit person and owner.

I mean, shit, I got bitten by a fucking Chow when I was 8. I'm not running around screaming "fuck Chows, they should be outlawed". I love Chows. But all animals can cause serious damage, so can cats. Cats are just smaller with smaller teeth/claws.
---

Terrible owners, sue them and get those dogs out of their house.

---

Also I hope it doesn't happen again, but any dog that's biting like that as a last resort and you are in your yard, grab you water hose and shoot it into the dogs nose

I wouldnt be able to think in that situation and would also probably just try to beat the shit out of it to save my dog too though

How would that help? I'd think it would just make it mad.
---

I'm glad you're relatively OK, and I hope your dog is able to shrug it off and get back to a happy life as well. I'd document everything, and take pictures of the yard and conditions the offending animal was kept in.

I do feel banning the "breed" is an over reach tho. Many dogs can fit the "pitbull" description, and I've met many that were the sweetest dogs you'll meet. I fully believe it's an owner issue.

I hope you get compensated for this, and I'm glad things didn't go worse. Best wishes TC

Some breeds like pits have lockjaw and clamp down, making them unable to breath can make them open their mouth and let go

---

Pit bulls are great dogs if they are properly trained and cared for, or they're absolute monsters. I had an amazing pit bull who died last October, but I had an awful one too that bit at everything and killed himself by eating part of a tree and getting splinters in his body.

Thank you. And owners like you is why I prefer grandfathering in existing pits, most are harmless and it's not fair to them or their owners. Going forward though I'm sorry, but too many people can't handle the responsibility. But thank you for being a responsible dog parent :)

Yes. As pissed off as I am, it's an animal. It wasnt his fault he was raised by dip shits. At the same time, something needs to change that could have been a kid.

I borderline panicked. Didnt remember the eye thing until it was too late and my work gloves made it less effective, just put pressure on its eyes I'd imagine. Sure pissed him off though

That's a myth, you know. No dogs can lock their jaw.

Honestly, I don't blame you for thinking that way. You're entirely right. I don't blame you for venting as you are, either. Some people are not fit for dogs. They...aren't. There is no way around that.

Good animals are born from good owners. And it's nice to know people like you(and I am sorry for the damage the dog caused in any case, it sounds awful, and I hope you get some form of compensation from this and hope those dogs are taken away from these scum) don't end up like the people that seem to think one breed is bad because...you know, bad experience.

And my dog is honestly just a durp. He's just...like, imagine a teddy bear. A stuffed animal. He's dumber than that. I've seen him walk into glass doors that he saw close.

Yet, he's smart as fuck when he wants to be. I don't understand him, but I love him. And his weird, deformed jaw.

Thank you. And to your point, my dog is a rescued bull terrier, sweetest boi I've ever had great with people, dogs, kids etc. So it's a slippery slope, which is why I prefer the grandfather clause. If my dog was banned, as long as I could keep him but no bull terriers going forward that's not the end of the world to me. Plenty of other breeds. But I agree 100%, it's the owner. Some dogs (of all breeds) also unfortunately are born biters, we had a pit that bit twice before he was 1 and had to have him put down, we couldn't fix it. Only dog we ever had a problem with. Point being, most people who get a born biter know it, and have a responsibility to do what's right. You cant fix a biting dog imo.

I am so sorry for your loss, I cant even imagine how traumatic that must have been. I'm sure he was the best boi, and I mean that in all sincerity. Thank you for giving him a wonderful life

Here he is sleeping, sleepy lil spud

Here he is after the attack. His chest is tore open and I'm not waking him up for pics obviously. I cleaned up the blood as best I could and apologize if this is not tos friendly, but I think it's important people see the result of a vicious dog attack. I will put it in spoilers for those that may not want to see this. Hard to see but theres two large punctures behind what's left of his ear. His face is raw and shredded below the ear where all the dried blood is too

My arm. Same deal, cleaned up but dont click if you dont want to see some blood

Poor fur baby... Damn, dude... That's so unfortunate.

We don't deserve how amazing dogs are and how much joy they can bring and how much joy humans bring them.

I'm sure he loves you even more now. :)

---

Spud dog.... i love those. gotta respect the opinion of others but it was either: really bad owner or an unstable dog that contributed to this (likely both of these contributed.).

i looked at more of the story, i worry about others who have to walk through the neighborhood. there's no hope for these dogs. hopefully you can sue them successfully.
---

Can't look because I'm about to eat but I hope the lil' guy will be fine. I'd suggest to take a weapon with you or walk somewhere a bit safer. Do you have an open backyard? I had a dog from the pound(she recently passed away, she was a mutt and didn't get along with other people/some dogs well) that I would walk around the backyard since she was smaller yet feisty and I didn't want anything to happen.

Damn poor guy hope he isn't too traumatized. Oh and maybe get a collar with giant ass spikes on it.

I had a huge dog, German shepard/Rottweiler. Size of a shepard, build and head of a Rottweiler. Easiest going bear ever. Loved everybody, but when he'd get excited at other dogs challenging him, it was effort to keep him under control.

I doubt he'd have hurt them if he'd gotten off the leash, he grew up with cats and ferrets so he knew he was bigger and could hurt. It wasn't so much holding him back from harming, he just wanted to go see a new buddy lol. I miss him

This breaks my heart...my fiance's parents are staying with us for a few weeks, and her mom was the one who took him inside after they were separated and the pit was under control. She said Kate (my dog) was growling and trying to go after it, probably because he was wanting to defend us at that point

I'm armed every time I go outside now (Walther PK380 with +1 extended mag, grips and laser sight loaded with hollow points). We were on our own property when it happened, and my guy was staked out on a 20' run and full chest harness. The backyard has a pos chicken wire fence and a 3ft drop to the neighbors property behind it. Their dog was chained and must have broken free (chain was still attached) and jumped the 3 ft wall and from the sound of it went right through the fence.

Shit man.

Try Home Depot and building a bigger, stronger fence in front the chicken wire? A fence high enough should protect you or your dog. About chest length?

God, I can't imagine what I'd do in your situation.

Daw. See, you knew your dogs limitations though and and acted accordingly. you had trouble controlling him and didnt fully trust him with other animals, so he wasnt allowed to play with strange dogs. That's responsible per ownership and I have respect for that. Sorry for your loss, we lost our 15 yr old black lab last year, she fell going gup the stairs and broke her shoulder. At that age it was decided it was cruel to keep her in that much pain, she had enough trouble walking before. Shit hurts man, but we give them good lives so it's worth it :)

:(. my dog is reaching that (she's highly active) though i have to give her medication every day so she doesn't get a bad allergic reaction.

loves to get a walk every chance she gets. i'll have to bring her to the vet if she has trouble walking (too much that some pain medication cant fix).

About an hour after we got back from the vet he had to pee. Would not go passed the front door, stood there just trembling and it took me a good 5 minutes to coax him out and as soon as he was done peeing he bolted (well hobbled quickly due to drugs and pain) for the door to get back in.

And yeah, spike collar. I didnt want one because I didnt want people to think he's a mean dog, his collar has foliage on it FFS lol. But now I get that they're functional too. Damn shame.

We gave her a medication specifically for arthritis and a pain med, have you tried that? It helped her tremendously, and we could at least do short walks around the block before she petered out.

Id suggest pepper spray on a keychain. Its honestly the most effective tool. Dont ever try to get between bare handed. Shit maybe grab him by his hind legs and throw his ass like a rock.

your local PD should have called animal control so that family could get a citation and notice

---

Sorry to hear, glad your dog is ok.

My dog (a schnauzer) is quite aggressive against any male dog that gets close to it for more than 5 seconds. There's been a couple of times when taking him for a walk that I've seen pitbulls and gotten a bit nervous. Luckily, their owners seemed to have them under control, they were all well behaved.

---

Messed up. I hate pit bulls but I hate their owners even more, I have zero respect for pit bull owners. Sorry you had to endure that

Totally. We just moved in 3 weeks ago and are doing renovations, the yard was trashed. A 5 foot high wrought iron fence was on the list of things to install, they'll be picking up that tab one way or another. I'm definitely suing, this was outrageous.

That would have ripped my dogs face off, he had his ear and face. Like I said I was trying to both keep them together to save his face and get it to let go/retreat. And a .380 hollow point>>>>>>pepper spray. I dont want to have to kill a dog, but that shit will never happen again, I'm taking zero chances. When something is killing my loved ones I'll do whatever I have to to protect them, had I been using my ripsaw today I would have used that instead of the weed whip, no hesitation.
