The Welcoming Committee (This Pit Bull Attacked Me Last Friday)

I went to Yellow Bluff Fort Historical State Park last Friday to take some pictures. Instead I got my butt bit by a grumpy Pit Bull. I meant to upload this that night, but got sidetracked or distracted or something...

You can read about it on my blog at www.darcyafarris.com if you would like the whole story.

I recorded this video on my GF1 in vga mode. SUCK! Now I see that I can upload up to 2GB files so next time I'll have much highter quality. Sorry about this one, but I can't exactly go back and re-record it or I would. I would even let that bitter ole dog bite my ass again just for you.

This dog looks hurt/abused or both. Was he dumped or abandoned?

@mhall83roller Ok you can cut that number in half because most of the public cant even identify an american pitbull terrier its been proven on multiple occations. Not too mention its the most abused breed there is. What I find exstrodinarily interesting is how beagles only have 2 attacks. It just so happens that I own a beagle and an apbt, the beagle has bitten a number of people. While my apbt will allow anyone to just walk into my yard and give free face washes.

The attacks by Pit Bull terriers are in extreme disproportion to other breeds, even the Rottweiler.

Pit Bull terrier: 1110 attacks

Rottweiler: 409 attacks

Wolf Hybrid: 71 attacks

German Shepherd: 63 attacks

Labrador: 26 attacks

Beagle: 2 attacks

Give him milkbones and peanut butter... he'll be your best friend afterward. haha

Hope he wasn't rabid. Check out the wiki page for Rabies. Its not something to fool with or delay. Its fatal with no cure if not addressed quickly!
