people who think Pit bulls should be banned make me sick. its the way they are brought up. i have several dogs and one of them being a Pit bull and she was the easiest to house train and one of the most loyal dogs i have ever had. the owners are the ones responsible for giving them their bad name. i would never give up my dog for some loser who doesn't understand that its the owners fault. id prefer a Pit bull over any other breed based on their loyalty and how easily they can be trained.

I absolutely love all the bull breed dogs but i have to say, as a man, it did upset me when i saw that man reduced to tears because he could not save his little dog. Yeah sure, Pitbulls can be aggressive but no pitbull or other bull breed dog should be without a muzzle or leash in public and on this occasion the pit was loose and that's down to the owner...ppl look at the wrong end of the leash...a powerful dog needs an even more dominant owner..feel for this guy. Ppl need to b responsible..

I like how they cut the vid short on the part of were the animal control officer was saying its not the breed but owners. By doing that they kept logical reason from reaching the audience and only add fuel to the ignorance that the whole breed should be destroyed based on the actions of a few poorly bred, trained, and socialized dogs that ended up in the wrong hands. I guess alot of Americans forgot that the APBT was part of our image during the WWs and we ADMIRED the breeds well known tenacity

Screw that no life nerd! Blame the fuckin owner not the dog bitch!

[tanail16412]

wow really bet they wouldnt post this if it was a golden retriever attacking a damn weiner dog i hate them any way there more visious then a pit people are dumb!!!

I have a hard time believing it was a dachshund, those things are usually vicious enough to protect themselves from just about everything. I guess it had a lot of show bloodlines in it, that usually ruins a good dog.

Feel sorry for the poor guy, but I wish he'd educate himself before deciding what needs to be done. Knee jerk reactions do not work.

Well it's rarely actually a pit, most of the time the media just calls it a pit because they don't know how many breeds there are and can't tell the difference. Even if they can, the pit is their choice of monster right now. Just like it was the bloodhound at one time, gsd, doberman, great dane, and other breeds decades ago. Though I agree, people need to spay./neuter and keep up with their dogs.

I 100% feel sorry for the family who lost their dog. I can't even imagine what they went through. However, the only reason this was a news story is because it was a Pit Bull. I own a Pit Bull and my parents have 3 Dachshunds and I take him over to their house to play in the backyard all of the time.
