American Bulldog attacks new dog in park

I wasn't going to upload this, but was surprised at the number of dog park visitors that didn't know a couple of tips.
1. Don't bring an overly excited or overly insecure dog into the park on a leash, they either become territorial and don't want any dogs to approach you or fearful and the dogs in the park respond incorrectly to it.
2. A really effective method to disengage two dogs in a fight is the wheelbarrow method, grab both their hind legs and lift at the same time moving backwards. Don't hurt their legs just be firm. kicking hitting and putting yourself in between them gets you possibly bit. I would recommend doing it to both dogs if possible to keep them from reengaging. However in this fight doing just the ABD ended the issue. I would also add, choking the aggressor out with their collar or a leash is the next step.

Bulldog

[@edl653]

It is an "American Bulldog" which is different a different bread from Bulldog. Pitbulls are not really an official breed. American Bulldog and Staffordshire Bull Terrie are referred to a Pitbull because they are very alike in appearance and often mixed. The Stafford was developed with and Terries as they are very aggressive fighters in temperament but also slightly smaller than American Bulldog. Also a lot of mixing of the two has happened to get larger Stafford especially for the purpose of dog fighting. A few decadess later and the common Pitbull has come into being thought not an official breed. - The dog in the video is appears to be an American Bulldog and not mixed.

[@Jen.K]

I won't be taking my dog to a dog park again after what happened this morning. I have mixed feelings about it anyway and usually don't go in there, unless it's empty, or there are only small dogs in there. I had just entered the park with my 5 year old Frenchie, we were going to the water fountain to get a drink before going home. A couple entered the other end with 3 medium size dogs, all different breeds and immediately let them all off their leads. They ran around with each other for a few seconds, then as soon as they saw us, they all bolted as a pack and started trying to attack my dog. I tried to pick him up, but he's heavy and I'm small and I was dragged down to the ground by the dogs. I tried to fight them off, one of them had my dog's back in his jaws and wouldn't let go, I was hitting it in the head and screaming at it until the owners made it across the park and managed to pull them off. It was obvious that they had no training and were completely out of control. Miraculously my dog only lost a few chunks of hair, and got a couple of minor scratches and didn't seem too traumatized by it. I wasn't bitten, but messed my knees up on the gravel. I learned through the brief conversation with the man that the woman, the owner of the dogs knew they were aggressive because he said that usually she is careful about letting them out around other dogs, he said she probably didn't see you. My dog is a solid boy, even though he's small, if that had been a tiny dog or a puppy, it would have been killed. I don't understand why people with aggressive dogs take them out in public and risk the safety of people and other dogs, let alone let them loose in a public place. I was badly traumatized by the incident, it's ruined my ability to go out for a relaxing walk with my dog now, I will always be on the look out for dangerous dogs now, that's when I venture out again. I didn't watch the video, just the first part.

I have two Dachshund minis and personally, I’ve only taken them into the dog park when there aren’t any dogs around. My dogs are sweet and aren’t reactive. One loves to meet the big dogs and the other is very shy around any sized dog. Although I want them to enjoy themselves, I’d rather not take the risk of them being attacked. Also, I feel like you get a feel of your dog’s reaction when you take them on walks. If you know your dog reacts to certain things like other dogs…then don’t take them to a dog park. If you are trying to get them adjusted to being around other dogs then have them trained properly/safely.

y i want to add: dont bring balls, games and other stuff like that... the park is ment to socialize (owners and dogs). not to throw the ball to your dog surrounded but dozens of other dogs. you are not bringing your kid to soccer school.

Never ever ever do you try to pull two dogs apart when one has attached itself to the other. All you're doing is putting more tension on the bite and increase the potential for injury if the dog starts to thrash. What you focus on is opening the jaws while keeping both dogs as immobilized as possible. Always keep a bottle of water on you. Pour it down the aggressors throat, he will let go when he feels like he's drowning. Harmless, quick and effective.

(but who could have forseen this you ask? well dogs having a quarrel is nothing new and with a bull type the consequences are bigger. we all know that. so yes, you could have forseen this) (you have a bull type and don't know what a breaking stick is nor how to use it? shame on you. use google/youtube) what i like about this specific dogpark: - it's relatively big - there's trees in the middle that provide some shades - high fences what i don't like: - the 2-feeters are mostly standing still. standig still (freezing) is what a dog does before an attack on either prey or a dog it doesn't like. so when your standing still your sending out a bad signal - the 2-feeters are often staring the dogs right in the face (agression behaviour in dog language (oh, you did not know that? brush up on your dog knowledge!)) - there are benches which 2-feeters have a tendancy to sit (still) on and that in itself increases resource protection behaviour in many dogs in the modern world there is no need for bull type dogs, when....

except in comments section if u read the "pitbull" (not really a pit by looks of it) was fine and not causing an issue with the other dogs until that dog came into the park. The other dog maybe pushed boundaries too much and wasn't socialised enough to understand when it was told to behave. But of course that wouldn't conform to your bias so why believe that.

Lol. It’s a Bulldog. Short muzzle, flipped tongue, just to name a couple very subtle differences. Also, I’m sure you know a Pitbull is mixed with a Bulldog?! English or British Bulldog. But, Old English Bulldog is where it started. Just some FYI. You’re part of the reason Pitbulls are so mislabeled… Also, Bully’s are not Pitbulls ether.

[@miamacfarlane2854]

I don't really feel safe taking my dog to dog parks anymore. If I want to let her have fun with dogs, I do it with a friend's dog and just have a playdate. It's a safe and controlled environment when it's just two dogs that already know each other. I know it's great exercise for them, but you never know what will happen at the dog park. Crazy owners that don't know how to train can show up.

[@tjmiller5060]

I love the size of this dog park. We live rural with Great Pyrenees dogs, chickens and goats. Our Pyrs are house ponies! We have to move them off of our king sized bed to the cool wood floors to go to bed…lol. Cats also go running to check out any fighting among other cats. I have quite a few and it’s enlightening to watch the social structure within a clowder of cats. Same with our dogs. The pack may have disagreements but the great majority are just not looking to fight. They always go back to the same pecking order. Thank you for sharing your video.

Instead of focus on if they see a pit somewhere. Learn behavior and dog body language instead to foresee and or prevent a dog fight. Before my comment the title was *PIT BULL* sooo yeah it added to the statistic list instead of anyone learning why it happened in the first place.

[@guinealumps8736]

Pitbulls for ya, they rank the highest out of ALL the dog breeds for bites, attacks, and deaths. They're literally bred to be aggressive, stubborn, and to fight!! Such an unpredictable and high risk breed to own and be around, they're not worth putting others, their pets, and your own safety and lives at risk of being harmed, attacked, and or killed! There's been so many cases where they turned on their owners, others people's pets, and even children! Pitbulls should honestly be band and against the law to own! Blame the breed and also blame the owner for not doing research behind what Pitbulls are actually bred for originally, their unpredictable temperament, what they're well known for (bites, attacks, and killing people's pets and even people/children), and blame them for not properly training such a high risk breed!

[@dodieschmidt8039]

Your very mis informed..and I will tell you I have NEVER incounter any aggressive behavior from mine or my Friends dogs..IT IS NOT THE BREED IT IS THE OWNERS, and how they are raised or treated and taught..If they should bann these then so many other breeds should be because how many other breeds have been in bite ATTACKS..I also have a Malinious who is gentle and like my Staffys great loving pets .

[@guinealumps8736]

@@dodieschmidt8039 Statistics show that the highest dog attacks by breed are from Pit Bulls. Their natural aggression, unpredictability, and high provocation rate cause Pit Bulls to have the highest attack and fatality rate in the United States when compared to other dog breeds! Some data even suggests that pit bulls make up only 6% of the population of dogs in the United States, but are responsible for 68% of dog bite attacks. Another report from the CDC on dog-bite fatalities concluded that pit bull bites are responsible for more fatalities than any other dog breed. They're on the top 10 most dangerous dog breeds and probably the most notorious breed on this list, the pit bull has a reputation for unpredictability and aggression, even against its owner or his family!!! Pitbull's are responsible for the vast majority of fatalities associated with dog bites. From 2010 to June 2021, there were 430 bites, with 185 of those being fatal coming from Pitbulls, and another 41 that were Pitull mixes. Pitbulls are 2.5x more likely to bite in multiple anatomical locations than any other breed. Pitbulls are responsible for 60% of all injuries and 63% of ocular injuries. Pitbull terriers are 31% more likely to attack an unknown individual than any other breed. Pitbull terriers are 48% more likely to attack without provocation than any other breed. Pitbull attacks have higher morbidity rates, higher hospital charges, and a higher risk of death than attacks by any other breed. During 2005-2017, pit bulls killed one citizen every 16.7 days, totaling up to 284 Americans. From 2005 to 2017, Pitbull mixed breeds and Pitbull attacks contributed to 76% of dog bite deaths. When comparing 2005-2010 to 2011-2017, Pitbull attack deaths have increased from 58% to a whopping 71%!!!

@@dzonevideo5785 Yeah, I love mine, but they are stubborn. And both are a little timid, and so that fear can sometimes come out as aggression if they feel some other dog is in their space.

Not fair to the pit bulls, blamed just for being territorial sometimes--again and again and again. "They are good dogs," but not at the dog park. No, they're not that good. They're too timid and fearful to be that good. They are good dogs, though, just not "good" like the many other breeds in the video.

The issue is when they do get Into a scrap, they tend to do more damage than other dogs. They can also take a lot more damage than most breeds and still stay in the fight. My Chihuahuas got into way more fights and altercations over the years. But they are small dogs, so there isn't much damage that they can do. Toss a 70lbs dog into the mix that's built like a tank and has a steel trap for jaws, and that same little scrap that the Chihuahuas get into, takes on a whole other level.

I’m 70 years old. Despite the fact that this dog park seems to be more orderly than some I THINK DOG PARKS ARE THE DUMBEST IDEA IVE EVER HEARD OF. They forget that dogs are hierarchal pack animals and letting them run leash less only increases the tendency to fight for placement in the pack. I’ve had 9 HUGE breeds in my 70 years and never been to a dog park where aggression isn’t escalated by putting them together in mass with a boundary around them. It increases pack and placement mentality and the chances of fighting. Worse yet is the Starbucks drinking, Kumbaya owner, who’d rather socialize than watch their dog. This fight was avoidable. And listen to the dialogue between the owners making nice to each other after a possible tragic incident. Y’all ought to be ashamed of yourselves. My dogs were huge and just their size would precipitate a challenge by some little pos dog with an ex hippie owner. Sorry to be critical but if you care about your dog, play fetch with it somewhere. Also the “ no leash” rules only makes it harder to gain fast control of your dog in the event of aggression. Look many of the owners are SITTING ON A BENCH AND MANY DONT EVEN KNOW WHERE YOUR DOGS ARE. NUTS. MY OLD ENGLISH BULLDOG ALMOST KILLED AN AMERICAN BULLDOG AFTER BEING BULLIED. THAT WAS THE LAST TIME FOR A DOG PARK FOR ME.

[@kerrybayton2954]

The bulldog was 25% of that problem, the bulldogs owners were 75% of the problem.. Too much dog & owners with little or no knowledge of how to control it.. The best & only really effective way of separating a dog with a grip on another dog is to restrict its air supply by pulling up on it's collar.. Or if it's a pit ( break sticks) you do not pet, pat, or stroke your dog whilst its fighting another dog that in many, many cases encourages the aggression.. & owners & trainers of protection dogs stroke & pet the dogs whilst biting a sleeve or suit to encourage the dogs behaviour..

[@leegrass6954]

This is so freaking dangerous. People get real. Dog trainers who have any sense about them never recommend anybody go to dog parks. Veterinarian bills are thousands of dollars every day to patch up dogs chewed up by especially the bully breeds. If you know your dog has attacked another dog before stay out of the dog park.

The dog is not to blame. The owner for not having proper recall and control over her dog is. First of all, petting your dog while they're actively attacking another dog is sending mixed signals. This can be confused for praise actually and only make the situation worse. Second of all, if your dog is mouthy or mouthier than it should be with dogs muzzle it or stay the hell out of the dog park. This is why I do NOT take my dogs to the dog parks any more. too many negligent owners who literally have no control over their dog(s)

Dog parks are well intentioned but are a failure in design and acceptance. They are vastly open with mostly untrained and unsupervised dogs. They are much faster then humans and can be challenging to get a dog in control especially when it or another one loses it. Most owners can be delirious to a dog's body language and are sometimes unaware of their lack of supervision and inexperience with strong guard dog breeds waiting to unleash its dominance on a unsuspecting, submissive or passive dog. Its probably best to go to a park with less traffic, mature and well trained dogs or where you can be practically alone and not worry about being in a prison yard for dogs.
