A pair of dogs entered the playground Tuesday afternoon at Willard Intermediate South during recess and attacked students and teachers. A total of 21 individuals 18 students and three teachers were injured, though most were minor. Three teachers and three students sustained bites, scratches and other injuries that required medical attention. They were transported by ambulance to local hospitals. Heather Harman-Michael, director of communications and public relations, said not all of the injuries were caused by the dogs. Many of the students were injured in the melee that followed. Students suffered cuts, scrapes, bruises and sprains while running from the dogs and rushing to the safety of the school building. First-responders and school nurses provided medical attention on scene. Harman-Michael said the dogs, which lived at a house in the neighborhood of the school, were pitbull mixes.

They were confiscated by animal control officers Tuesday evening and have been euthanized. The dogs ran onto school property during the afternoon recess at the intermediate school, which serves students in grades 5 and 6. The first calls for help came in shortly after 1 p.m. Asked if the school playground is fenced, Harman-Michael said it is not. The district said school employees, school police officers, emergency first-responders, and Greene County Animal Control responded to the scene. "We had district administration and we had nurses and counselors from other buildings come to Intermediate South to be of assistance," Harman-Michael said. The animal control officers responded "within 10 minutes" and were able to locate the dogs and their owner, who voluntarily surrendered them. Harman-Michael said it was a chaotic scene and in addition to the 21 individuals who were suffered the range of different injuries, other students were on the playground and watched the incident unfold. "They were all out to recess when the dogs came on campus, or onto the playground area," she said. "There were a lot of students who saw it." The Intermediate South building will have indoor recess on Wednesday, the final day of class before the winter break, and counselors will be available for any student who wants to talk. "We'll have a separate, designated area for counselors so any student who feels like they want to process what they saw or went through, or just want to talk through some of that, can go chat with the counselors," she said.

Damn not even at school are kids safe from pitbulls.

Seriously. All dogs can attack people but you only hear about pits and only the pits. You never even hear about their owners. Just the dogs. The situation is bad but I'm tired of it just being overwhelmingly pit related.

Because for some reason the other big dogs capable of killing people...seem to DONT for the most part compared to pitbulls. And sure...chihuahuas could probably kill if left to their own devices, but nothing that a good kick cant solve.

Yeah, I'm amazed there wasn't a fence at this school. With how many humans attack schools, that seems like a safety concern.

Not much to say about the dogs. It's terrible they attacked all those kids, but they've already been put down. So... that's the end of that.

unless your statement is going to be we arent like poundgarden and friends, we have nuanced beliefs on pit bulls. In which case you still dont have a convincing argument

Hot take: Pitbulls, pugs, and doodles should all be required by law to be spayed and neutered so that the suffering of these dogs and people alike does not continue. Pugs because they are perpetually suffering with things like bad breathing problems due to how they've been bred, pitbulls due to being overly muscular and having the reluctance to let go while attacking bred into them and how they account for over 68% of attacks despite being 10% of the population, making them far more dangerous overall, and doodles because they suffer from the worst of backyard breeders and thus the creator of doodles regrets it immensely. No dog is bred more irresponsibly than the doodle, and it leads to dogs with poor behavior and health problems that backyard breeders often lie about just to get their teddy bear designer dogs to sell.

Spaying and neutering them is the most humane way to stop future suffering. Also, so shelters will eventually stop being full of pitbulls that nobody wants.

Ah yes, the thousands of incidents where pitbulls turned on their perfectly fine owner were all just isolated incidents. Despite how no other breed flips a switch like that so much. Gotcha.

This could also be true I know other dogs bite and kill people Yet, they others are rarely shown The other 32% of attacks must be coming from somewhere, right?

Dog Breed Bite Statistics
Let us look at some statistics on fatal dog attacks by breed, knowing that there were 430 fatal dog bites from 2010 to June 2021:
  • Pit bull responsible for 185 deaths
  • Pit bull Mix responsible for 41 deaths
  • Rottweiler responsible for 26 deaths
Stats speak for themselves. The bad rep they get is for killing and maiming. People tend to not like that.

Blame the owners all you want. Make up rules where others cant have, but you candoesnt stop the killing and maiming at all.

But hey, its super important that people have the freedom to own a potential life destroyer as their sweet whittle baby that would never hurt a flea.

This is true. There are other aggressive dogs. And most dogs, if not all, can be made aggressive, dangerous, or both So, getting rid of pitbulls probably wont help as much as they think it will
