Two 8-month-old pit bulls that were loose in Nanaimo attacked several children, severely injuring at least one. Other people that came to aid the children were also injured.

The children were playing in a yard at the house of one of their friends. The dogs were from somewhere else in the neighborhood and had been cited for being at large previously.

One of the owners of the dogs came and got the dogs but did not stick around. The news interviewed the other owner, a Dangerhair that looked to be in her late 40s or early 50s. While she was devastated at what her dogs had done, she said to the reporter, "People are saying, look at this from the prospective of a parent, well, these dogs are my kids, too," and then she broke down crying.

It was later reported both dogs were euthanized, as there have been other incidents prior to this one, and due to the severity of the injuries the one particular child sustained.

To the dangerhair dog owner I would have to say, "If these dogs were your KIDS, you did a lousy job of raising them. Thank heavens you didn't spawn any of your own."

I think one of the many issues is that pit bulls aren’t exactly a breed you can just get from the pet store and treat like any other dog. They’re terriers and like most terriers, they have high energy and high prey drive. Maybe not as much as a husky, but pits from what I know need a lot of exercise and playtime and keeping them locked up in the house or tied to a lead all day is only gonna lead to them becoming these anxious hyper messes. They also can have dog aggression which can pose itself as an issue
Another issue is that they’re just so damn strong. My moms friend has a pit bull that’s the sweetest thing in the world but one whack from his tail or a knock from his head can lead to some serious bruises. Some pits just want to play but end up hurting someone real bad in the process.

It doesn’t help that a lot of people who get pits do literally no research on the breed and/or just get them to look badass. There needs to be more awareness of taking care of pits as well as other high energy/maintenance breeds like huskies, collies. I think any dog can be a good dog, you just need to know their needs.

Pit bull reports aren’t always accurate though either. A lot of it is based on eye witness accounts and the Staffie, Amstaff and American Pit can easily be mistaken for boxers, bulldogs and bull Arabs and are all the time

If it's in the owner's backyard then, yes. Their property, don't trespass.

It should still be put down though for biting an officer. It's one thing for it to maul an intruder, it's another thing for it to bite somebody doing their job.

How the hell is a dog supposed to know the cop isn’t an intruder?

The owner was home at the time. I expect him to have control of his dogs.

He did. They were chewing up an intruder as they should have been doing. Unfortunately for the dogs, cops intervened for also obvious reasons.

I fail to see anything unfortunate about this. An unsightly drain on society has been removed and a criminal trespasser is dead. Win-win as they say.

Nah, doggo did nothing wrong. Getting bit by a dog is a risk cops take, a dog doesn’t know what a cop is.

At least the cop didn’t light him up like some cops do.

You're thinking of the ATF. They would be the LEOs best suited to liquidating the shitbull breed.

I wish he did.

I never even understood the appeal of pitbulls. If you want a badass scary dog get a rottweiler not some doglet shitbull.

If you want a badass scary dog get a vasectomy. Then get a Caucasian Ovcharka or a Tibetan Mastiff, you nancy faggot.

How small is your dick? Are you going to let the mastiff fuck your gf?

As if a mastiff owner would have a gf.

And a cop is mauled. And a dog is (probably going to be) dead. That's less than optimal.

I didn't say it was the best outcome, I just said it was win-win.

Child shouldn't have been roaming the neighborhood anyway, everyone knows that people walking around agitates dogs. She deserved it, buy my pitbull mommy shirts on Etchy.

The dad should be given a very fine gun and three clear shots at that neighbor while the police look the other way.

Not trying to be confrontational or trollish, I really have an honest question: What's the point of owning a breed of dog so powerful and instinctively predatory in any modern, urban context? If as you mention the mere act of playing with an animal like this will cause bruises then when it goes out of control it means severe mutilation or death for people around it. What is the purpose of allowing anyone to even purchase such a high maintenance, discipline demanding dogs without making sure the buyer is the right type of owner for such a breed? This breed as a whole is a liability and while I don't advocate for these to be culled, I do think the breed itself needs to be "phased-out" via selective breeding to dilute the aggressiveness and turn it into a more manageable, gentler breed.

Pit bulls don't really have breeders like a purebred dog does, they only have backyard breeders, who charge very little for pit bull puppies and don't give a fuck what happens to them after that. Backyard breeders are uniformly stupid and unethical. It is a way to make a quick buck if you're broke and live somewhere horrible. They sell them mostly to people who want to protect their property (either because they live in a high crime area or because they are criminals and have drugs/whatever to keep secure).

A ton of the dogs end up at shelters because the breeder couldn't get rid of them and can't care for all the grown dogs, or the people who owned them couldn't take care of them, plus the things break out and run away a lot more than normal dogs. Then stupid women in the suburbs "rescue" the dogs from being euthanized at the shelter, and think they're heros for having a dog they can't physically control, and take them everywhere to be smug about how gentle their dogs are.

This breed as a whole is a liability and while I don't advocate for these to be culled, I do think the breed itself needs to be "phased-out" via selective breeding to dilute the aggressiveness and turn it into a more manageable, gentler breed.

If you select against the aggressiveness you're gonna end up with a different dog breed entirely. It's like saying you want to dilute the running proclivity of a greyhound or something, it is the defining trait of the breed. I think it should be madatory spay/neuter for dog breeds that only exist because of animal cruelty (like dog fighting).

I think it's ultimately a form of cruelty to animals to breed them with traits that are actively harmful to them, either by making them deformed and have horrible health problems like pugs and the other deformed dogs with hideously malformed skulls, or by making them have horrible behavioral problems that make them not only likely to kill humans but also likely to end up being put down because they just can't behave.
