My daughter was over there visiting with a friend in their driveway when the dog got loose from inside and attacked her in their driveway. That family witnessed it, but I don’t trust them to do the right thing in the end. If it happened on their premises you have a better chance of a homeowners policy paying out the claim. 1 hour ago, Constant said: Yeah. Did that stuff the day of. Unfortunately, I’m a little too familiar with the process due to my work. And I’ve found representation, so that part is also done. Fuckin' A man!

The other two posts above piss me off. 1- the pit defender's statement of you always need to watch YOUR FAMILY DOG... Um, I had dogs to protect my kids. 2- The Go Fund Me. I won't say more. I thought parents were supposed to protect their children from wild animals. It seems here they harbored the wild animal with the child.

September 15, 20241 yr Quote Hey y’all, Earlier this week my wife and dog were attacked by 3 pit bulls while out walking our neighborhood. Both got beat up pretty good but luckily nothing life altering thanks to some neighbors hearing the screams and coming outside to help. The police came, they corralled the dogs, and found the owner. I have a case number form APD, but they told us this is most likely going to be a civil issue. This incident is going to cost us a good amount between the dogs emergency vet visit, the ambulance for my wife, and getting her phone fixed which broke in the scuffle. I want to press charges and have all of these things paid for by the dog’s owners, if possible. If so, should I be contacting a lawyer? How do I find a decent lawyer? Googling it returns a lot of results and I’ve no clue how to discern a good one from a bad one. Does anyone have any experience here and advice on next steps here? Thank you all so much!

October 9, 20241 yr If we can't manage to ban them altogether, there should at least be a one-bite, and you're done policy with pits. Fuck pit defenders. Everyone loves their dog. That's not a justification. I respect the restraint of the father above whose daughter was attacked. I don't think that dog would still be breathing if I were in his shoes, and I'd be in jail and paying some hefty fines. Where I grew up, if a loose dog killed anyone's livestock or family pet, that dog was dead. If it bit a person unprovoked? Dead. No questions asked, and rarely much pushback from the dog owner either. It was just the understood way of things.

It’s amazing we as a society permit mentally ill people unfettered access to guns, and terrible, uneducated moronic people unfettered access to pit breeds. They should all die. We can't even keep shitty drivers out of cars.

October 9, 20241 yr Are “two-bite” laws (two police reports of a dog biting and the dog is taken away to be euthanized) ubiquitous? I think all serious dog bites (not counting the tiny dog snap that doesn’t break the skin) should be reported to the police.

I think all serious dog bites (not counting the tiny dog snap that doesn’t break the skin) should be reported to the police. That's protocol in Texas. Few years ago I was in Alamo Heights (nice area of SA) and a cold front came through the night before. Some wind and thunder, but not a particularly strong storm. I'm a sucker for cool morning air, so I drove to nearby neighborhood and went for a jog when a loose and well-groomed 30lb fella snuck up behind and grazed my leg with his teeth. No aggression, no fuss. I went to an urgent care just to get maybe some antibiotics. They told me it was mandatory for them to call the cops and it was a whole thing. Very common process, the cop said. Pretty quick, but I was still annoyed. I learned never to run in strange neighborhoods the morning after a thunderstorm. Thank god it wasn't a pit bull.

The social media brigade is out for blood on this one Link I've spent a lot of time working in and around Sendera Ranch, what an awful place to liveI’m confused. Why the outrage? It seems clear there was a loose shitbull, that was on camera barking and then leaping at a man who was armed. What is the expectation in this instance? You just supposed to allow yourself to get attacked? Gtfo
October 11, 20241 yr If he had killed a minority in that same neighborhood they would throw him a parade
October 11, 20241 yr I cannot believe this dude is on admin leave. How can this possibly be an issue with his employer?Because some companies have allowed faux social media outrage to dictate their policies.
October 11, 20241 yr Okay when cops do it, but not when school district employees do it (unless they're school cops of course)
October 11, 20241 yr I'm guessing this "puppy" was 60-70 lbs already. The guy wouldn't have shot it if it was 8 weeks.
October 12, 20241 yr Buddy started dating a woman. Getting serious enough for him to spend weekends at her place. Twice in 4 months dog (pit) has cornered him. If they sit on the couch together, pittie gets between them and stares at him. If buddy gets up, pit growls. She thinks it is cute and pits are just misunderstood. "Oh, he is just like that and interested in new people." She locks the pit up in his kennel from 7-7 when buddy stays over. What about the 12 hours he is out and awake? She works from home, 45ish year old nurse, never married, longest relationship is 11.5 months. He does not see the red flags. Cray dog owned by cray woman means he getting chomped some time. I ask him every week if he still has his penis.
