My family is used to own chihuahua, that small dog but he passed away after attacked with coyote because they let them to free roam around outside but not pass on other neighborhood until coyote is running and chase them off.

You don't care about humans? I supposed that included children as well. You have no idea how much that even devastated me.

I'll show you some of those kids that went through.

S.F. boy, 12, killed by his family's pit bulls

Does any of those children deserved this?

Yup, I rather to taking care of children over pets.

It does happened then pitbull and other breed are got away from owners after attacked with children,that who is injuried or die. After I looking at picture, I feel bad for them to got attacked by pitbull and few other breeds.

 

[Foxrac]

Why you hate human?? it does seem you dont care of human of like your family or umm if you have boyfriend or friends which they are human that you dont care?

Oh well, he's so...

Just let lay him off and complain about humans but he don't have rights to against toward on me or other ADers, such if I get hurt from attack by pitbull then he wouldn't care, same as if you got hurt then he don't care too. It's not worth to chat with him since he have no care on relationship or family. :roll:

You saved me from typing that up....Thank you!

 

[Angel]

I grew up with animals and grew up to hate humans.. that why.. i get to used it..

 

[beetarehoh]

Exactly.

Read this from Cheri's url:  

"Animal behavior experts have theorized that the attack could have been linked to different stresses on the dogs, including the family's imminent move to Oregon and the possibility that the female dog was in heat, triggering increased aggression in the male."

Good owners will do there best for their dogs to be friendly, however, there is a natural instinct in dogs that we human cannot control. Pitt Bull may be the friendliest dog around because never attacked but one day out of the BLUE pittbull will attack. Dogs behavior is unpredictable and we have the right to be fear against pittbull and any other dogs. We need to respect other people properties and put ALL your dogs on leash. Dont let them wonder off to another peoples terrioritory!! Thats all I have to say.

i dont care about my family.. i never have relationship with any of my bf before.. I do have friends but they are not really as a friends to me.. mostly like i use them

I m gonna go off this creators subject,

Animal Lover You know, I think it is YOUR choice of how you treat people. If you want to use them go ahead, but one day they will get back at you. You either treat them with respect and they will repect you.

I feel that you are feeling oppressed by your hearing family and peers. This is what makes you mad, then you turn around and dont care about them. Well, you know, everybody is not not caring. A lot of people care and you should unite with people who cares.

You welcomed me to AD, does that mean you using me? I sure hope not, but you not really my friend anyways.

beetarehoh.

I do put my dogs on leash when I bring them out for a walk. Though they aren't pit bulls.

I don't put leash on my dogs when they are in the backyard since it's fenced.

Good to see that,

I meant in my quote that in general, people need to leash their dogs at all times.

I have a Golden Retriever, she growls at people with hoods and other dogs. Makes me wonder if she will attack anybody(Most GR does not anyways).

 

[Angel]

I agree that ALL dogs should be on leash....

I just want discuss about dangerous dogs, such as pitbull, rottweiler and few others, also what you are doing if they walk on your property or make threat? Do you support them or not like them?

Please respect member's opinion when they don't like it, also no bashing or attack.

Animal Lover, You better to respect to members that don't like pitbulls, also respect their feeling about being dangerous dogs or whatever. I know that pitbull is more responsible for bite, attack or whatever but that fact. I have approve that pitbull isn't good dog but can be more aggressive than you think that they are innocent.

I totally disagree. It is not the breed that is dangerous, it is the owners who are uneducated how to handle these breeds. It is what make them dangerous to have these dogs. I have a rare breed from Italy called cane corso and it looks like a gaint pitbull who is on steriod. My dog is not dangerous and he has CGC, TDI, TT, and SchH I. Do you know what these titiles are? Don't your dog has one? I have met labs, golden, and other breeds who did not pass these titles.

When I hear people tell someone that pibtulls, dobermans, and rottweilers are dangerous, they are simple ignorant and uneducated. Don't make yourself look like a fool like them.

Why do you think that some states have laws on vicious dogs? There's a reason behind it all, I already stated that in this thread. I think they rather to be safe than sorry, it doesn't sound ignorant to me, What's more ignorant is when pet owners let their dogs roaming loose on properties, not thinking about the safely of others.

I rather to be a fool than having my own life being taken away.

These stats are not reliable anymore because CDC realized that many people have failed to identify a true breed. How can you believe in someone when it said it was a rottweiler who attacked my child.Later someone who knows alot about dogs saw the dog. He said it wasn't a rottweiler but a shepherd mix. This has proven many times. Where is the recent statistic for a breed who is responsible for biting? Where is the 2007 biting reports?

When someone wrote down a bite statistic, many time they have failed to identify a true breed. Now you tell me which one is a pitbull.

Pet Pitbull - Find the Pit Bull

How accurate is this when you come to identify a true pitbull?

Vicious dogs law exists because all dogs can bite. It does not target dogs who are rottweiliers, german shepherds, or pitbulls. It targets all dogs whatsoever. If a neighbor has a small dog who bite me, does it makes sense to call that small dog a pitbull? I highly doubt that pitbulls, gsd, rottweiliers, and other dominant breeds are responsible for every attack.

When a person said that they are dangerous, that person is ignorant for saying that because I know that is not true.

It reminds me of people who are baised about color and tell everyone that a black man raped all white women. Do you believe that every black person you meet is a killer, a rapist, and a theif? Does it make sense to say ok to tell everyone that black people are bad people because they are overflowed in the prison? Just like Mexicans.

Vicious dogs law exists because all dogs can bite. It does not target dogs who are rottweiliers, german shepherds, or pitbulls.

Yes it does, in my state of Ohio, Pit bulls, Rottweilers, German Shepherds, Akitas, Dobermans, and Chow Chows are required to be on leash at all times, and a pen with a top or in a fenced yard or by chaining, control the dog with a leash and a muzzle when in public, and purchase $100,000 liability insurance. If the pit bull, Rottweiler, German Shepherds, Akitas, Dobermans and Chow Chows killed or injury anyone, the dog will be killed and the owner is subject to felony charges.

 

[Cane Corso]

I don't think it's the breed that makes a dog, any dog, dangerous. It's the attitude of the dog owner towards the dog.

Yep. Totally agree.

 

[Cane Corso]

I got problem with pitbull in mid-90's and my mom did popped the ball then hit on their body but I understand about she want keep me to be safe. I did almost got in attack with pitbull when I was innocent, how is pathetic? I started dislike pitbull but I don't hate rottweiler, though.

Ok, take a pop quiz i posted in there. Let's see if you are picking out the right pitbull. Come back with an honest answer. Maybe a good chance that it was not a pitbull.

No, it does not. All dogs are required to be on leash. It does not matter what breed it is. Not them.. You are completely lost. I know that in a county in ohio has passed a BSL, but I know that rest of the state does not pass the BSL law.

Where does it say that pitbull, rottweilier, and gsd are the only ones that need to be on leash, have an insurance, etc>?

Where does it say a rottweilier, pitbull, or gsd?

DOG BITE LAW - Ohio

It DOES not name a breed just a dog. It means ANY DOGS, there is no indication that it is a pitbull or GSD.


In Beuttner v. Beasley (Ohio App. Eight Dist., Cuyahoga, 04-15-2004) Number 83271, 2004-Ohio-1909, 2004 WL 813515, the Eight Appellate District for Cuyahoga County held that a woman whose boyfriend’s dog bit her face would not be entitled to recover against the boyfriend for the dog’s action where the woman lived with the boyfriend, and cared for the dog on a daily basis.

A basset hound did attack her face

A friend of the family who went for a walk with a family member and, on that walk, was asked to hold the dog's leash while the family member went to the restroom was held to be a "keeper" of the dog and therefore was barred from recovery under the statute. Marin v. Frick, 2004 -Ohio- 5642 (Ohio App. Dist.11 10/22/2004).


A choclate lab did this

Personally, I believe muzzling a dog is likely to worsen the aggressiveness.

I don't muzzle my dogs when I bring them out. I do put them on leashes because it's common sense to keep them close by. But to muzzle them?

No. If your dog bites, you shouldn't bring it out for a walk at all. Muzzling it will just heighten the aggressiveness. Chaining them to a pole in the backyard has a similar effect on the dogs.

Dogs feel restricted when they are muzzled which is never a good thing.

Politicians obviously don't know jackshit when it come to dogs. They just pass the anti-dog laws to please the bloody screamers.

 

[Cheri]

No, it does not. All dogs are required to be on leash. It does not matter what breed it is. Not them.. You are completely lost.

Oh really, like you live in my state?

Dog Owner's Guide: Dogs and the law

In Ohio, the only state with breed-specific restrictions in its legal code, any dog that looks like a ‘pit bull’ is considered vicious regardless of its behavior. There is no description of ‘pit bull’ in the law, but the attorney general once said that it was any dog of the bull terrier type. Dog wardens have the authority to identify dogs as pit bulls; if a dog warden says it’s a pit bull, it’s a pit bull unless the owner has strong evidence to the contrary.

Ohio’s vicious dog law requires that owners of pit bulls confine their dogs in a pen with a top or in a fenced yard or by chaining, control the dog with a chain link leash or a muzzle when in public, and purchase $100,000 liability insurance. If the pit bull has been debarked, it is confiscated and killed and the owner is subject to felony charges.

OHIO
Ohio's Dangerous & Vicious Dog Law - New Bill HB 189 Introduced
HB 189 was introduced in April, 2005 and makes many changes to Ohio's dangerous and vicious dog law. Sponsors of the bill are Representative Kathy Walcher and Representative Shawn Webster, DVM.

Dog owners are strongly encouraged to read this bill and make up their own minds as to the benefits or drawbacks of the bill. Ohio residents are urged to immediately contact their State Representatives and the sponsors of the bill to discuss it in more detail. The most promising aspect of the bill is that it removes any mention of specific breeds. Ohio is the only state to define 'pit bull' types as vicious. HB 189 defines a vicious dog as one that:

* Cause serious physical harm to a person, without provocation
* Has killed another dog, without provocation
* Has been possessed, trained or used for purposes of dog fighting

Other sections of the bill:
The bill has an expanded definition of 'serious physical harm'. Many more controls are placed on owners of dangerous or vicious dogs.

* Muzzling when off premises is mandatory, unless the dog is confined in an enclosure.
* You can only have one vicious dog.
* No one under the age of 14 may control a dangerous or vicious dog off premises.
* Owners of vicious dogs must present 'proof of insurance' when asked by any agent who can enforce the dangerous/ vicious dog law (Police, Animal Control, etc).
* Persons convicted of a violation of the dangerous/ vicious dog law or other felonies are banned from having a vicious dog.
