DES MOINES IA - GRANDPARENTS PIT BULL ATTACKED THEIR 23-MONTH-OLD GRANDDAUGHTER CHOMPING DOWN ON HER NECK AND NICKING HER JUGULAR

An almost 2-year-old girl was at her grandparent's home on Wednesday and was climbing down and almost had her foot to the floor when their  PIT BULL  lunged at her and bit down on her neck.  The grandfather was close by and reached for the mutant's collar and the grandmother......

TOOK HER HANDS AND STRETCHED HIS JAWS OFF HER GRANDDAUGHTER.

But her jugular vein had been nicked.  Her grandmother put her hand over the injury to slow the bleeding and she was rushed to a hospital.  She is recovering and is out of the hospital on Saturday but will need more surgery.

The grandmother is very upset in the video and says she realizes her pit bull was "getting old".  But a neighbor says that the pit is vicious and kids can't play outside around it.  The pit bull attacked a cat recently and was taken by animal control for quarantine and was then returned to the family with specific restrictions, one being $100,000 liability insurance.  No word in this article as to putting down the monster.

FAYETTEVILLE NC - NEIGHBOR'S PIT BULLS COMPLETELY DEVOUR A SWEET BEAGLE PUPPY "JACK"

Graham Webb got  JACK  a few weeks ago for his 10th birthday.  He called the puppy....

"MY SPECIAL-IST BIRTHDAY PRESENT IN MY WHOLE LIFE."

The little beagle was in the family's back yard Thursday while the family was out.  When they came home they searched and searched for Jack, but......

HE HAD ALREADY BEEN DEVOURED - EATEN ALIVE - BY THE NEIGHBOR'S 3 PIT BULLS.

There was a witness who saw the dogs eating the puppy but didn't see how Jack got there.  There's a hole in the wood fence and Andy Webb believes one of the pit bulls pulled Jack through to their yard. But animal uncontrol said there's no proof that the pit bull yanked Jack through the fence.  Because the Pit Bulls are in their own yard and they haven't been aggressive toward a person, they cannot be taken into custody.

IN THE MEANTIME ANDY WEBB SAYS THE PIT BULLS  NEED TO BE WATCHED.  AND THEY NEED TO BE PUT DOWN FRANKLY. HE CARRIES A .38 HANDGUN IN HIS BACK YARD FRIDAY AS A PIT BULL BARKED AND GROWLED AT HIM FROM THE OTHER SIDE OF THE WEATHERED WOOD FENCE.  HE EXPLAINS THAT HE HAS 4 KIDS AND THEY ARE HOME SCHOOLED AND THE BACK YARD IS THEIR PLAY AREA.

"HE ATE MY DOG.  I'M JUST GLAD IT WASN'T MY DAUGHTER."

FORT WAYNE IN - 3 PIT BULLS BURST OUT OF A FENCE AND ATE A BELOVED 6-POUND CHIHUAHUA MIX "DUDLEY" THAT WAS WALKING NEXT TO ITS OWNER

                                           RIP  DUDLEY
KEEP YOUR CHIN UP MARK BORDERS - STAND STRONG - DON'T LET THEM WIN !!!!!

Mark Borders was taking his 6-pound Chihuahua mix  "Dudley" for a walk just outside his home on the 1300 block of  Spy Run Avenue near downtown Fort Wayne.  When he walked Dudley near his neighbor's fence   3 PIT BULLS   broke out of their padlocked fence and attacked Dudley.  Borders says he punched them in the head and tried to pry their mouths open to get his tiny friend but he could not. The mutant monsters practically ate his beloved pet.   AND NOW PEOPLE ......

NEVER, EVER FORGET THAT THE FIRST DESCRIPTION OF A PIT NUTTER IS THAT THEY LIE.  THEY LIE AND LIE AND LIE AND LIE TO COVER UP LIES.

OWNER/NUTTER STACEY TARANGO SAYS:

*SHE IS SORRY

*THE CHIHUAHUA WAS TAUNTING HER PITS

*THE ATTACK WAS THE FIRST SIGN OF AGGRESSION HER PITS HAVE EVER SHOWED.

NUTTERS THAT RUN ANIMAL UNCONTROL SAYS:

 "IT'S NOT ENOUGH FOR THEM TO GO BEFORE A JUDGE AND SAY THIS DOG IS DANGEROUS. BY ORDINANCE A FIRST OFFENSE ATTACK BETWEEN DOGS IS LOOKED AT THE SAME WHETHER IT IS A BITE OR A KILL. IF WE EUTHANIZE EVERY SINGLE DOG THAT CAME IN HERE FOR A BITE AGAINST ANOTHER DOG, WE WOULD BE EUTHANIZING PEOPLE'S PETS EVERY DAY." 





THIS IS LIKE LABELING AN EAR OF CORN !!!!!! NOT AN UNPREDICABLE FIGHTING BREED OF MUTANT ANIMAL!!!!  THESE "SUPER SWEET" PIT BULLS COULD JUMP THAT FENCE WITH ONE LEAP. THEY WERE RETURNED TO TARANGO AND HER ONLY PUNISHMENT FOR HAVING  KILLER MONSTERS WAS SHE HAD TO PAY THE QUARANTINE FEE AND SHE HAD TO HAVE THE FEMALE SPAYED AMOUNTING TO SEVERAL HUNDRED DOLLARS. THEY WERE CATEGORIZED AS "POTENTIALLY DANGEROUS DOGS."  REMEMBER THAT NUTTERS LIE AND LIE AND LIE AND THEY WILL LIE BEFORE A JUDGE AND MAKE UP LIES TO COVER UP ANY LIES THAT THEY PREVIOUSLY TOLD AND GOT CAUGHT IN.

NORTH FORT MYERS FL - 2 PIT BULLS BROKE THROUGH A FENCE AND ATTACKED AND MUTILATED A BELOVED PET GOAT "MILLIE" - MILLIE DIED AFTER CLINGING TO LIFE FOR 3 DAYS !!!!

"THEY HAD BLOOD DRIPPING FROM THEIR MOUTHS.  THEY KNEW WHAT THEY WERE DOING AND WENT FOR CERTAIN PARTS THAT WERE MEANT TO KILL HER. MILLIE HAD PUNCTURE WOUNDS ALL OVER, HER EARS WERE SHREDDED, HER LEGS WERE BROKEN, THE RIGHT SIDE OF HER FACE WAS RIPPED OFF.....SHE WAS PRETTY MUCH MUTILATED."

JAYNELLE HAMILTON GOT MILLIE  5 YEARS AGO TO KEEP  HER TERMINALLY ILL GRANDMOTHER  COMPANY.  SHE WAS ONLY 4 WEEKS OLD. JAYNELLE  CAME HOME ON MONDAY TO FIND 2 PIT BULLS STANDING OVER HER BELOVED GOAT SHE HAD FOR 5 YEARS.   SHE SPENT 3 DAYS BY MILLIE'S SIDE NURSING HER, BUT SHE DIED WEDNESDAY MORNING. 

ANIMAL CONTROL CITED THE PIT BULLS' OWNERS WITH 8 CITATIONS - 4 FOR EACH DOG. BUT IN ORDER FOR THEM TO BE CONSIDERED "VICIOUS" AND BE TAKEN FROM THEIR OWNERS, THEY MUST HAVE ATTACKED ANIMALS ON 2 OCCASIONS.  THE ATTACK ON MILLIE WAS THE FIRST REPORTED ATTACK FOR THESE DOGS.

SERRA MESA, SAN DIEGO COUNTY CA - HAPPY, FRIENDLY NEIGHBORHOOD PIT BULL JUST COMPLETED ITS 3RD ATTACK ON OTHER ANIMALS - IT WOULD HURT THE NUTTERS SO MUCH IF THEY LOST THEIR SWEET NANNY !!!!!

The San Diego County Animal Control Department has an open investigation (so they say) into a PIT BULL ON KOBE DRIVE THAT HAS ATTACKED OTHER ANIMALS ON 3 OCCASIONS AND INJURED THEIR OWNERS  

One attack happened in 2011.  The other 2 attacks happened in August and September.  Serra Mesa resident Derek Olson has lived in the neighborhood 4 years and witnessed the last 2 attacks. He is upset because the pit bull has not been seized by animal control and the owner held accountable. He wants to know where the city stands on this issue as this dog has shown a clear pattern of aggression.

*On August 14, the pit bull got free when its leash broke and it attacked a collie injuring it and the collie's owner injured her wrist defending her pet.

*On September 13,  Derek Olson helped to pull the same pit bull  off of a pet dog it had attacked.  The pit bull was on a leash but its owner still didn't have control of it.  It was a matter of prying the pit off another dog.  The injured dog suffered a fractured eye socket and several puncture wounds and the owner suffered injuries. There is a civil suit filed against the pit owner in this attack.


ANIMAL CONTROL SPEAK:

DANIEL DESOUSA, DEPUTY DIRECTOR WITH SAN DIEGO COUNTY DEPT OF ANIMAL SERVICES -   "THE DEPARTMENT DOESN'T ALWAYS GET INVOLVED WHEN ...............

                           2 DOGS GET INTO 'A CONFRONTATION.'

WE WILL RESPOND, WE WILL ALWAYS RESPOND.  IT JUST MAY NOT BE AS QUICK AS SOMEONE WOULD LIKE.  IN SITUATIONS LIKE THIS ONE, THE DEPT MAY HAVE TO LOOK AT THIS TO SEE IF THERE IS SOMETHING WE NEED TO DO TO PROTECT THE PUBLIC. THE NEXT STEP WOULD BE TO QUARANTINE THE ANIMAL AND THAT MAY HAPPEN AT THE OWNER'S HOME."

PIT NUTTER/OWNER SPEAK:

AS HIS PIT BULL IS ACTIVELY ATTACKING ANOTHER PET FOR THE 3RD TIME  AND HE CAN'T CONTROL HIS PIT, HE STANDS THERE AND YELLS:
     
"I'M SO SORRY, I'M SO SORRY."

******************************************************************

HOW MUCH WERE THE VET BILLS FOR THESE 3 ATTACKS???.   WHAT PSYCHOLOGICAL TRAUMA AND INJURIES HAVE THE VICTIMS SUFFERED  AFTER ENDURING AN ATTACK BY A PIT BULL ?????!!!!!!  I WANT TO SPLIT A GUT EVERY TIME I READ SOME OF THE PHRASES THAT ARE IN THIS ARTICLE:

* "THE PIT BULL GOT FREE WHEN ITS LEASH BROKE"

* "THE PIT BULL WAS ON A LEASH BUT ITS OWNER COULDN'T CONTROL IT."

* "HE SEPARATED THE PIT BULL AND ANOTHER DOG"

* "A NEIGHBOR SAYS HE HAS SEEN THE PIT BULL VERY HAPPY AND VERY FRIENDLY WHEN ITS PLAYING IN THE BACKYARD OR OUT ON WALKS. THEY HAVE HAD THE DOG FOR A WHILE.  IT WOULD BE VERY UNFORTUNATE IF THE DOG WERE TO BE EUTHANIZED.  I THINK IT WOULD HURT THE PEOPLE VERY MUCH IF THEY HAD TO HAVE IT EUTHANIZED."

                                       ************************

FIRST, WALKING A LARGE, VERY STRONG PIT BULL THAT HAS ALREADY SHOWN THAT IT IS ANIMAL AGGRESSIVE IS CRAZY. EVEN PUTTING A MUZZLE ON THE MONSTER PROBABLY WOULD NOT STOP IT.  SECOND, TRYING TO PRY A PIT BULL'S MOUTH OFF ANOTHER DOG THAT IT IS ATTACKING IS NOT SEPARATING 2 DOGS THAT GOT INTO A FIGHT !!!  AND THIRD, I WANT THIS NEIGHBOR THAT WAS SO SUPPORTIVE OF THE - VERY HAPPY FRIENDLY PIT - TO TELL US IF HE HAS PET DOGS OR OTHER ANIMALS THAT HE FREQUENTLY LETS GO OVER INTO THAT YARD AND PLAY WITH HIS NEIGHBOR'S BELOVED KILLER!?????!!!

ALTON IL - A NEIGHBOR'S PIT BULL CHARGED UP ON A PORCH AND CHOMPED DOWN ON THE CALF OF AN 8-YEAR-OLD GIRL SERIOUSLY DAMAGING FLESH AND TENDONS

UPDATE:  VIDEO OF KATY WHO SUFFERED MULTIPLE BITES - MOTHER SAYS HER DAUGHTER WILL BE TERRIFIED OF DOGS FOR THE REST OF HER LIFE- MONSTER WAS EUTHANIZED !

On Tuesday night an 8-year-old girl walked out the door of her home to the porch and a  NEIGHBOR'S PIT BULL TERRIER   came into her yard and up on the porch and bit her calf seriously damaging the flesh and tendons. The dog's owner drove the girl to an Alton hospital emergency room and then she was transferred to a St. Louis hospital where she underwent surgery.

The dog's owner, who only recently moved to Alton, was cited with failure to restrain an animal and it was confiscated on Wednesday. Animal control is waiting to see if it has had its rabies shots from a vet in another area.  Animal control and the city attorney will decide whether they want the animal returned to its owner or euthanized following the "UNPROVOKED ATTACK ON THE CHILD".

SCOTIA NY - A NEIGHBOR'S PIT BULL ATTACKED CLIFFORD SEMERAD, 80 - HE IS NOW HOSPITALIZED WITH INFECTION IN HIS WOUNDS

A veteran and a long-standing member of the Scotia community and described as an "awesome neighbor" remains hospitalized after an attack by his neighbor's   PIT BULL  THAT WAS KEPT MOSTLY TIED TO A TREE WITH NO FENCE !!!     

The victim, 80-year-old CLIFFORD SEMERAD, was attacked Saturday when he was returning a bucket to the dog owner. The dog came out of nowhere and lunged at him knocking him down to the ground and began biting him.  We are not told in this article how he managed to get away from the monster.  He did go to the hospital for treatment of wounds to his head and arms and then returned home....

BUT INFECTION SET INTO HIS WOUNDS AND HE RETURNED TO THE HOSPITAL AND REMAINS THERE.

The incident was reported to animal control but  THEY DON'T WORK ON WEEKENDS !!! Then the animal control officer was out sick on Monday and Tuesday.  Neighbors state that this dog has bitten other people but always on the owners property which is a civil matter.  Mayor Kris  Kastberg says that regardless, dog owners are supposed to have control over their dogs on their property and this can't keep happening .....AND NOW...

THE PIT BULL HAS DISAPPEARED.  The village police took over the case and went to the house and got no answer.

ARDMORE OK - A PIT BULL/MASTIFF MIX BIT A 2-YEAR-OLD CHILD'S HAND MULTIPLE TIMES - CHILD IS IN CRITICAL CONDITION AND HAS HAD SEVERAL SURGERIES

A 2-year-old has undergone several surgeries and is in critical condition after a  PIT BULL/MASTIFF MIX  bit its hand multiple times.  Authorities say that the child was staying with her mother at a home in Ardmore on September 14, when police were called to the emergency room to investigate a dog attack.  It appears that the child was in the kitchen alone for some time without adult supervision and got into all kinds of food as well as dog food.  It looked like the child was taking hands full of dog food to the monster when it began biting her.  Cries from the victim awoke the   OWNER OF THE MUTANT  who brought the child to its mother.

The child was taken to an Ardmore hospital and then medi-flighted to Oklahoma City.  The mutant was ordered euthanized and child neglect charges have been presented to the district attorney against the mother, 24-year-old KERA WOOD, of Ardmore.

UPDATE:  HERO - AMANDA MCCALL SPEAKS !!!

Josh Gomez, 13, was on the same route he walks everyday on Monday when  2 PIT BULLS  attacked him.  He was on the 1000 block of Third Street where children play, students commute and athletes go for runs.  A witness  - A HERO - was able to stop this attack by using a baby stroller to beat the dogs back.  Josh was taken to a hospital and he has undergone one surgery and will have another one Thursday.

HIS SISTER SAYS THAT JOSH HAS A DISABILITY IN ONE OF HIS ARMS AND CAN NOT MOVE IT, SO HE WAS FIGHTING THE MONSTERS WITH ONLY ONE ARM AND THEY GOT HIM AND DRAGGED HIM TO THE ALLEY.

Moments later, the mutants attacked again going after a runner with his cross country high school team.  He was able to escape serious injury and was taken to the Ward County Hospital and treated.

The nutter came to visit both students and said....

"I have had pit bulls since I was 15 years old and this has never happened before."

I HAVE ONE COMMENT TO YOU - NUTTER - YOU ARE VERY, VERY LUCKY THAT THIS CHILD LIVED AND YOU ARE NOT ARRESTED AND FACING CHARGES TONIGHT.

Oakland Raiders cornerback  TIAWON JONES'  agent said the NFL player is upset that his  2 dogs killed a neighbor's Chihuahua this week.  The Contra Costa Times reports that animal control officials are investigating Monday's attack in Jones' Brentwood neighborhood.

Olivia Peredes said she was walking her 12-year-old Chihuahua when  2 PIT BULL MIXES  WHO WERE WITH JONES CHARGED AT HER DOG.   This article does not say if the pit mixes were on a leash and got away from Tiawon Jones or if they were outside unleashed.  The dogs have been quarantined pending an investigation.  This article does not say if they are at home or at a vet or shelter during quarantine.  Jones' agent Doug Hendrickson said his client feels terrible about what happened and he said......

"MY DOGS HAVE NEVER ATTACKED HUMANS OR ANIMALS BEFORE."

DEARBORN HEIGHTS MI - A LOOSE PIT BULL ATTACKED AND KILLED A BELOVED POODLE BEING WALKED BY ITS OWNER ON A LEASH.

Residents are seeking a  PIT BULL BAN  in the city after a Poodle was killed by a  PIT BULL on September 12.  A man took his poodle for a walk on Monroe, west of Katherine, when a  pit bull charged toward them and began tearing his pet apart. He kicked it several times and then.....

BEGAN USING THE WOODEN BASEBALL BAT HE CARRIES FOR PROTECTION.  HE BROKE THE BAT IN HALF ON THE PIT AND IT STILL CONTINUED TO ATTACK HIS POODLE.  OFFICERS ARRIVED AND SHOT THE PIT ONCE.   IT RAN INTO A YARD AND ATTEMPTED TO LEAP OVER A FENCE AND IT TOOK 2 MORE SHOTS TO KILL IT.

Another resident told of how the same pit bull had charged him and almost knocked him down when he walked from his vehicle to his house.  He managed to get away from the monster and ran inside his home.

The owners of the killed Poodle are seeking to start a petition to have  pit bulls banned in the city to prevent this incident from happening to anyone else. They say it is becoming an increasing problem in their neighborhood where pit bulls are getting loose. The couple will be bringing up the topic at the city council meeting at 8pm on Tuesday and are encouraging others to attend to support the ban.

RANCHLANDS, ALBERTA CANADA - A PIT BULL RAN LOOSE AND BIT AND SCRATCHED CHILDREN WALKING HOME FROM SCHOOL

A  PIT BULL  ran loose around 3:30 on Tuesday afternoon and began threatening children walking home from school.  Musdafa Sharif, 11, was bitten on his leg.  Another child has scratch wounds from the same dog.  His father, Asif Sharif, says his son's injuries could have been much worse.  He is worried  about whether the dog was properly vaccinated.

Because the bite wound was considered to be minor, officials did not seize the pit bull.  However, 3 charges were laid against the dog owners:

* A DOG BITING A PERSON

* A DOG THREATENING A PERSON

* HAVING AN UNLICENSED ANIMAL

 EACH CHARGE CARRIES A MAXIMUM FINE OF $10,000.

UNION MO - 2 PIT BULLS ATTACKED A WOMAN AND HER CHIHUAHUA'S OUTSIDE HER FRONT DOOR - HEROS - 2 AMEREN LINE WORKERS RUSHED FROM ACROSS THE STREET TO SAVE THEM

DAWN LAY  believes she could have been killed on September 11. She was letting her 2 Chihuahuas out to go to the bathroom in her yard and she stayed right with them and suddenly  2 PIT BULLS came charging around a corner at them.  A white pit bull latched onto one of her Chihuahua's rear end while the black pit bull knocked her forward to the top of the porch.  She held on to her little dogs and crawled up the steps to her porch with the monsters still attacking them.  She huddled in a fetal position holding on to her dogs and screaming for someone to help her.

She suddenly heard a man's voice yelling at the pit bulls to get out of there and then she heard a crack.  Two Ameren line workers were finishing up a job across the street and they ran to her aid yelling at the dogs and whacking with a broom.

Lay says she can't thank them enough for putting themselves in harms way to help her.  She can't stop thinking about what might have happened to her and her pets if they hadn't come. The pit bulls are in quarantine......AND....

THE CITY'S PUBLIC SAFETY COMMISSION DECLARED THEM TO BE "DANGEROUS ANIMALS" IN A MEETING TUESDAY NIGHT.  THEIR OWNER CAN GET THEM BACK, BUT WILL HAVE TO FOLLOW A LITANY OF RULES:

* THE OWNER WILL HAVE TO BUILD SEPARATE PENS FOR THE 2 DOGS 

* THE OWNER WILL HAVE TO CARRY.......................

      A HALF A MILLION DOLLARS WORTH OF INSURANCE ON EACH.
                                 (THAT'S $500,000  X  2 =  1,000,000)

* IF THE OWNER CAN'T COMPLY, THE DOGS WILL BE EUTHANIZED ACCORDING TO THE CITY ORDINANCE.

ON AUGUST 15 ABOUT 8:15PM DANIEL GARCIA WAS WALKING LAZER IN THE COLONIES  NEIGHBORHOOD....

 "PEOPLE WOULD SEE ME WALKING LAZER AND THE KIDS KNEW HIM.  EVERYBODY LOVED HIM.  HE WAS THE BEST DOG I EVER OWNED. I TRIED TO COME BETWEEN HIM AND THE PIT BULL BUT HE LATCHED ONTO LAZER'S RIGHT SHOULDER.  LAZER WAS AN ELDERLY DOG.  HE TRIED TO DEFEND HIMSELF BUT HE WAS LIMITED IN HIS STRENGTH. I GRABBED THE ATTACKING DOG BY THE NECK AND STARTED STRIKING IT WITH MY OTHER FIST."

.......AND THE NEXT SENTENCE IN THIS STORY SAYS:  IT TOOK DANIEL GARCIA AND 3 NEIGHBORS TO PULL THE DOGS APART.  I DON'T THINK SO.  I THINK IT TOOK 4 MEN TO UNLATCH THIS PITS MOUTH FROM LAZER'S BODY.  THE OWNER/NUTTER ALICIA FAGUNDES WAS SUPPOSED TO MAKE SURE THIS MUTANT NEVER GOT OUT AND ATTACKED ANOTHER ANIMAL.  THIS ARTICLE ALSO SAYS THIS:  FAGUNDES' PIT BULL THAT SHE HAD RAISED FROM A PUPPY WAS....

           IN "A FIGHT WITH ANOTHER DOG"  IN MARCH 2012...

I DON'T THINK SO.  I THINK IT ATTACKED ANOTHER DOG IN MARCH 2012.  THE NUTTER FAGUNDES ALSO BLAMES ANOTHER NEIGHBOR FOR LETTING HER MUTANT OUT FOR THIS LAST ATTACK ON LAZER WHILE SHE WAS AT WORK AND MINIMIZES MR. GARCIA'S LOSS WITH HER NUTTER EXCUSES. MR. GARCIA ORIGINALLY DID NOT WANT THE MUTANT TO BE EUTHANIZED.  HE ACTUALLY WANTED IT TO BE REHABILITATED !!!!!!  BUT NOW HE HAS CHANGED HIS MIND AND WHEN HE ATTENDS THE UPCOMING HEARING, HE PLANS TO SUPPORT THE EUTHANASIA OF THE MONSTER THAT KILLED HIS PET.......

BETH ROSENBERG was letting her dogs out at about 11am on September 13  when a  PIT BULL  pushed its way through the front door of her home and lunged straight for her neck just missing her jugular   by a few inches. Her Dachshund rushed to her aid and the  PIT BULL  turned on it biting down on its head. Then her other dog, a 5-month-old Rottweiler joined in the fight against the PIT BULL.

Rosenberg's boyfriend heard the commotion and he grabbed a rattan dining table and told her to stand back and he whacked the PIT BULL 4 times with no results.  On the 5th whack, it took off.....

TEARING UP THE HOUSE AS IT FOUND A WAY OUT.  IT WAS CHAOS!!!!! ROSENBERG CALLED 911 AND HER BOYFRIEND, IVERSON HOLMES, PULLED A JAPANESE SWORD FROM THE WALL AND WENT OUTSIDE TO LOOK FOR THE PIT BULL BUT IT HAD DISAPPEARED.

Neighborhood kids told them the dog lived a block away.  Police and Waterloo AC took possession of the MONSTER and will issue citations for  *FEAR OF ATTACK  *DOG AT LARGE  *VACCINATION PROOF ??  *CITY LICENSE ??

THE DOG LAWS ONLY ALLOW THE POLICE OR DOG WARDEN TO REMOVE A DOG THAT'S ATTACKED A PERSON OR ANIMAL AFTER IT'S BEEN DEEMED A DANGEROUS DOG BY THE COURTS.  THE EXCEPTION IS IF THE OWNER DOESN'T HAVE THE MEANS OR WILLINGNESS TO QUARANTINE THE DOG.

UPDATE:  LADY HAS DIED FROM HER INJURIES

WANDA MISIASZEK, 82, AND HER GREYHOUND "LADY" WERE ATTACKED BY HER NEIGHBOR'S  "WANDERING" PIT BULL ON FRIDAY  IN HER OWN YARD.  LADY HAS UNDERGONE HER SECOND SURGERY AND HER VET BILL NOW TOTALS AROUND $10,000. BESIDES THE TRAUMA OF BEING ATTACKED, SHE SAYS THE WORST IS THAT ANIMAL CONTROL DID NOT COME AFTER THE PIT BULL THE ENTIRE WEEKEND AND SHE COULD SEE IT FROM HER HOME.

HER NEPHEW MIKE CALO  SAYS HE DOESN'T UNDERSTAND WHY SOME SYSTEM IS NOT IN PLACE TO HAVE A VICIOUS DOG THAT HAS ATTACKED SOMEONE OR ANOTHER PET  REMOVED IMMEDIATELY.  HE SAYS HIS DOG WAS ATTACKED LAST YEAR BY  ANOTHER NEIGHBOR'S PIT BULL  AND IT TOOK OVER A WEEK FOR ANIMAL CONTROL TO REMOVE THAT DOG.

JUST ADOPTED THE PIT BULL FROM THE NORTH KINGSTOWN ANIMAL SHELTER ABOUT 3 WEEKS AGO.  AFTER THE ATTACK  ANIMAL CONTROL ADVISED HIM TO QUARANTINE THE DOG AT HIS HOME FOR 10 DAYS.  HE DIDN'T WANT TO KEEP IT ANYMORE SO, ON HIS OWN,  FIGUERIDO BROUGHT THE PIT BULL BACK TO THE NORTH KINGSTOWN ANIMAL SHELTER WHERE IT REMAINS.

KOTZEBUE AK - A 5-YEAR-OLD BOY HAS BEEN MAULED TO DEATH BY ONE OR MORE LOOSE DOGS

VIDEO - IN MEMORY OF JORDAN LEE-REED

UPDATE:  AUTHORITIES PUT DOWN THE HUSKY MIX THEY SAY WAS RESPONSIBLE

JORDAN LEE REED, 5, was playing in front of his family's home on Saturday when he was reported missing around 10:44pm.  The police, fire and search and rescue  looked for the boy through the night.  His body was found at 4:10am in an open field.  The police department captured several loose dogs in the area , one of which was determined to have been involved in the mauling. The breed or breeds of the dogs was not reported.

Kotzebue's mayor said loose dogs have been an increasingly serious problem in the Northwest Arctic town of about 3,200.  The city council became so worried about aggressive dogs roaming the town that it became a number one priority and they tightened up an existing animal control ordinance.  It went into effect a couple of months ago and required.....

*PEOPLE WITH DOGS ON A "VICIOUS BREEDS LIST" TO HAVE INSURANCE COVERAGE FOR THESE ANIMALS.

*SUCH DOGS TO BE PENNED IN YARDS SECURELY.

*STIFF FINES ARE LEVIED ON PEOPLE WHO FAILED TO FOLLOW THE RULES.

Dogs can be seen roaming around the town in groups of 2 or 3.  The police chief went on radio to emphasize the importance of responsible dog ownership.

Police say that on Saturday afternoon a person, not the owner, was walking a  PIT BULL  on a retractable leash.  A neighbor was outside in his backyard with his 11-year-old beagle, Scout,  and as the  pit bull approached the yard the person walking it  could not control it and it  got away from him and began attacking the beagle.  The owner of the beagle was able to get the pit off the beagle and  got his pet back inside his home.......

THE PIT BULL BECAME UNCOOPERATIVE WITH THE PERSON WHO WALKED HIM AND THE OWNER OF THE BEAGLE RETURNED OUTSIDE WITH A GUN AND SHOT THE PIT BULL.

The beagle had to be taken to a vet for treatment of its injuries. The owner of the pit bull as well as the  person walking it could face a charge of failure to confine.

BOX ELDER SD - A NEIGHBOR'S 3 PIT BULLS KILLED SEVERAL SMALLER PETS - CITIZENS ARE CONCERNED THAT NOTHING IS DONE TO STOP THE KILLINGS

Nathan Thibodeau stepped outside his home last Saturday night to see his family dog, Midge,  being chased and dragged away by a neighbor's  3 large  PIT BULL dogs.  Midge finally escaped after a violent struggle but she was bleeding from both sides of her body and eventually had to be put to sleep.

Thibodeau says it's the 3rd time in 2 months that the Pit Bulls have attacked and killed a neighbor's dog. One of these attacks was so vicious that there was no evidence left - the pit bulls ate the entire pet dog. Calls to police got him only moderate interest.  He was told that the case would be referred to Pennington County Animal Control but nothing was done to the PIT BULLS  or their owner.  He is hopeful that something will be done before another pet is killed or far worse, a neighborhood child is victimized.

POPKUM BC CANADA - AS MANY AS 6 PIT BULLS TERRORIZE A NEIGHBORHOOD - IN THEIR LATEST ATTACK THEY CHASED 4 TEENAGERS RIDING BIKES BITING ONE OF THEM

JONATHAN ZANDBERG was with 3 friends on September 4 when a pack of  PIT BULLS  came after them.  He used his bike like a shield to fend the dogs off. As the 14-year-old backed up on the shoulder of Yale Road East in Popkum, he bumped into a hydro pole, and that's when 3 of the dogs came after him biting him on the leg and shredding his shorts. His 3 friends managed to get away.  He took off his clunky shoes and began running  - even though he was bleeding -  as fast as he could.

His mother says this could have been a whole lot worse - "What if this had been my 8-year-old daughter?"  The Popkum-Fraser Valley Regional District Area has no animal control bylaw, which means there is nothing that can be done legally to stop the vicious animals from terrorizing the neighborhood. 

It's not "IF"  but  "WHEN"  these dogs attack again.  The property is approximately 6 acres and backs up to the Cheam Lake Wetlands. No house can be seen from the road but the driveway is blocked by a small locked gate that as many as    6 PIT BULLS  have been seen jumping over.  When RCMP went to the property to speak with the owners, the dogs were penned up.  The dogs have gone after others and bitten pants legs and this is of particular concern because this is the route that children ride their bikes to school and like to bike on for fun.

The only way that police could put the dogs down is if they catch them in an attack on someone.  An animal control bylaw will be considered in October but could not go into effect until the next budget year in January.

"OUR WHOLE NEIGHBORHOOD HAS JUST HAD IT.  THE OWNER DOES NOT CARE....HE HASN'T EVEN APOLOGIZED."

A 22-PAGE EVALUATION OF THE SHELTER BY THE MEMPHIS ROTARY CLUB CONFIRMED SUSPICIONS THAT SHELTER EMPLOYEES WERE SELLING PIT BULLS TO DOG FIGHTING RINGS  "OUT THE BACK DOOR".

THE DEATH RATE OF ANIMALS IN THE SHELTER IS SO HIGH THAT STAFF NEED GRIEF COUNSELING TO DEAL WITH DEATH ON SUCH A LARGE SCALE.

* THE CITY TAKES IN 16,000 ANIMALS PER YEAR - 4 TIMES MORE THAN COMPARABLE SIZED CITIES.

* 38% OF THIS NUMBER ARE  DOGS SURRENDERED BY OWNERS.

* 50 ANIMALS ARE EUTHANIZED A DAY - 5 DAYS A WEEK.

* THE MAJORITY OF DOGS SURRENDERED ARE PIT BULLS.

* THEY HAVE A NEW 36,000 SQUARE FOOT BUILDING THAT IS NEARLY 4 TIMES THE SIZE OF THE OLD BUILDING.

* ONE EMPLOYEE SAYS IT TAKES NEARLY 5 HOURS TO INVENTORY ALL THE ANIMALS DAILY BUT AN EMPLOYEE IS USUALLY GIVEN ONLY 45 MINUTES TO DO SO SO THE COUNT IS ALWAYS OFF AND ANIMALS ARE NOT LOGGED INTO THE COMPUTER PROPERLY.

* DOG FIGHTING ALLEGATIONS HAVE BEEN TURNED OVER TO THE ATTORNEY GENERAL.

* THEY ARE ALSO PUTTING GPS DEVICES IN ANIMAL CONTROL TRUCKS TO TRACK OFFICERS' WHEREABOUTS.

*THE CITY IS WORKING TO STREAM SHELTER VIDEO TO THE REAL-TIME CRIME CENTER AND STORE IT IN A SECURE LOCATION FOR AN EXTENDED PERIOD OF TIME AFTER PIT BULLS ARE STOLEN FROM THE SHELTER AND FROM TRUCKS OF OFFICERS.

DAYTON OH - A PIT BULL CHARGED THROUGH A SCREEN DOOR TO ATTACK AN EXPERIENCED MAIL CARRIER

A mail carrier was severely mauled on Ozark Avenue on Thursday by a  PIT BULL  that burst through a screen door.  RICHARD OBERLIN, 45, has been employed with the post office since 1998 and is said to be very experienced. He was issued PEPPER SPRAY  AND WAS TRAINED IN DOG PSYCHOLOGY - NEITHER WORKED !!!  He was left to defend his face and was left with significant wounds - said to be huge holes - to both hands.  ANOTHER HERO - A NEIGHBOR RUSHED TO HELP HIM AND CHASED THE DOG OFF HIM AND PROBABLY SAVED HIS LIFE.



The woman who was left in charge of the dog was sitting on the front porch and is said to be very ill and can not possibly control the dog.   THE DOG BELONGS TO HER SON AND IT WAS NOT LICENSED NOR HAS IT EVER HAD A RABIES VACCINATION.  The dog was removed from the residence and placed in quarantine for 10 days.

There have been 12 dog attacks on mail carriers in Dayton since October 2012. Approximately 1 each month.  This article doesn't tell us the breed of the dogs, but here is the "TALK" training the carriers get:

* Don't stare at dogs.

* Back away slowly.

* Use your mail bag as a barrier.

RICHARD OBERLIN DID ALL THESE THINGS.
