My Dog Did Nothing

The plaintiff was walking her dog when the defendant’s dog followed her and bit her pup, so she’s suing for vet bills and missed work. The defendant claims there was no attack, and the plaintiff is making it all up for some cash.

The defendant should never be allowed to own dogs. Not only was the plaintiff's dog almost killed, but the DEFENDANT'S dog was subject to all manner of beating and kicking. All because the defendant is grossly irresponsible. And now that poor dog is at the animal shelter, probably marked as a dangerous animal, it will probably never be adopted, and will likely be put down. "There is a difference, because there are no more court dates now." This is a man who doesn't give one flying fuck about any animal.

[@Ailenna]

I never seen a case in the local news where human error, negligence, didn't play a role. Freak accidents is always less than .01 %. No less common than slip and fall on a banana peel, or a shark bite. Responsible pet ownership always plays a role. From the way your dogs behave, around who, keeping kids safe, and doors, fences, closed, damage repair. I have 10 dogs, and 5 cats, in a 3 acre property. I rescue, any time an animal shows aggression, injury tendencies, I adopt them out. Just because like them to roam free, and enjoy themselves. The area is too large impossible to control what if. In the other hand, a tenant hid a violent ram from us, that he adopted from days old. He loved this animal, but couldn't handle it any longer. Broke a fence, attacked me. He was evicted voluntarily because he put everyone in danger, and is completely unacceptable.

[@mickm6309]

A few recent dog attacks in Australia where a person has been mauled have occurred in the family home, by the family pit bull that everyone swears were the sweetest dogs. I don't know the complete backgrounds of the dogs or owners, but inbred instincts do come out in some dogs and pit bulls were originally bred and taught to fight and kill other dogs. I am sure you are a responsible pit bull owner, but there is one reason I believe why pit bulls should be banned or owned by only responsible people and is that so many are owned by delusional people like the defendant. By the same token, that guy shouldn't be allowed to own anything bigger than a goldfish.

[@user-rm1br3sw7x]

Pit bull owners will go to great lengths to defend their dogs, but the facts speak for themselves. The propensity for violence has been bred into the dog. I don't care how lovingly they were raised. Any dog can bite for whatever reason. It's their ferocity and the bite strength that does maximum damage to it's victims. They have a bad rep for a reason. That's why many communities ban them and most homeowner's insurance companies will drop you or refuse to insure you if you have a pit bull.

[@Xterraforce]

I had a pit bull that was by far the least aggressive dog I've ever owned. My nephew had one that was always nice then one day out of the blue it attacked me as I was getting out of my truck. Even with mine being so easy going I was always vigilant because I know what the breed is capable of. The problem is exactly what you pointed out. All dogs may bite at some point and even if a pit bull isn't more likely to bite, it's jaw strength and the way they bite will make it much worse if it does. So many pit bull owners treat them like any other dog simply based on the fact they haven't shown aggression in the past. That's unacceptable and a big part of their bad reputation. I would have no problem owning another one but like every pit bull owner should, I would control it at all times as if it were a deadly aggressive dog ready to attack at any time. It can be a sweet family pet inside the home but it should never be handled in a manner in which it can attack outside of the home. They need a good strong leash, collar and muzzle in public and the person handling them must have the physical and mental ability to keep them under control and never get distracted. Personally I find chihuahuas and other small breeds to be far more aggressive on average but fortunately they lack the size and strength to be very dangerous.

[@user-rm1br3sw7x]

@@Xterraforce Your last statement is very true. Some smaller dogs seem more aggressive, but are infinitely less likely to do significant damage. Pit bulls, Rottweilers, Dobermans and other breeds are capable of inflicting extreme damage or even death. Most owners want to treat them like Golden Retrievers. Judge Judy always kept news articles on her bench with stories about families with pit bulls that were never aggressive, until one day they just went off and mauled and/or killed children who were just playing and not even interacting with the dog.

[@wvrjl]

I knew a Pitbull that was very friendly. I wouldn't have even known she was a pitbull because her ears and tail weren't docked. So it absolutely DOES matter how they're treated. Too many people who are neglectful or abusive get pitbulls. However, their bite capacity is extremely strong so you have to be careful. I don't back banning any dog, but because of what they can become, you need to be careful and, especially if the dog had already been aggressive, there needs to be set rules specifically for known aggressive dogs where the owners punishment is more severe.

[@BobBlumenfeld]

My thoughts exactly. And I'll add that some pit bull (and some other breeds as well) owners choose the pit, consciously or unconsciously, for that reputation, out of fear of and/or the desire to intimidate other humans. Also reflected in the names they give their dogs.

I have a girl pitbull that I’ve had since she was eight weeks old. She is the most loyal and loving dog. TO ME.

I love animals but if I ever got a Pitt, I would make DAMN sure it was under my control and walk it with a leash and muzzle at all times

@@mcicalese58 They actually do kill larger animals. And people, although they do usually kill smaller animals and babies. Tens of thousands every year. Over 90% of fatal dog attacks are by Pits. The US is now literally overflowing with Pits and Pit mixes (check any shelter)...and now the XL Pit (bigger and stronger) is gaining popularity. Pits are banned in many countries for good reason. The Pit bull propaganda has been wildly successful. A lot of it is here on youtube. Everyone denies science and blames the owner, especially when it's the owner and their children who are mauled to death. Pits were genetically manipulated to fight to the death, even under tremendous pain. Not to herd sheep, retrieve dead ducks, and especially not to be "nanny dogs" as the propaganda insists (a blatant lie). IMO victim-blaming is despicable. Science is REAL. Genetics are REAL.

In 1991, Singapore passed a law about Pit Bulls that requires sterilization, microchipping, insurance in the amount of not less than $100 000, and in public places a dog must be kept on a short leash and in a muzzle. I don't know when the attack on your dog occurred, but I hope your mom reported the attack and the owner was punished. The list of countries that have banned or restricted Pits is long.

Defendant is not taking accountability

I have experience w pitbulls and they are the sweetest when they know you, but if they don't, watch out! They naturally go into attack mode w small dogs. When my Yorkiepoo was a puppy, he was so small he could get out of the gate (fit btwn the bars). The pitbull boxer mix across the street tried to kill him everytime. He would literally jump the fence to try to get Bobby. We put up chicken wire to keep him in and the pitbull out. The same pitbull used to attack me everyday walking home from school. When he snapped at my leg and put a hole in my jeans, my Dad put the fear of God into the dog and owner 😂

He's still not taking responsibility 😒

Defendants wife’s dress is so cute!!!!

[@amandamatheny3675]

I agree with the judge that the guy is fully responsible, but there are things that she could've done to avoid this situation. She claims that she saw four pit bulls in a yard with a 4 foot chain-link fence and she was afraid they could get out. If that's the case she should've gone around a different way. Then, even if she had continued on as she did, once the pitbull got out and was following her, she could have carried her little shitzu with her across the street to the other fenced yard and bolted inside of it to protect herself and her dog. She could have even put the shitzu down in that yard without it getting out but if she was really afraid she should've continue holding it and then she could have hollered for someone to come help get the loose pitbull back into its own yard until she and her little dog could move past.

Bird dogs have an inbred interest in birds. Fighting dogs have a proclivity for fighting. I have nothing against Pit Bulls, but reality is reality.

The defendant just made me mad 😡

[@tuxedonix2884]

Its always the owner, not the pitbull. But how many getman shephard, husky, doberman cases are out yhere compared to pittbull. The fact is, they are unpredictable, aggressive , and much more dangerous than most dogs.
