Owners in a Bitter Dispute Over Dog Attacks
By LESLIE KAUFMAN

Correction Appended

The first victim was Murphy, a statuesque standard poodle, who suffered a life-threatening puncture to her throat. This was in January 2003.

Then came Bentley, a 130-pound sheepdog, two months later. He needed surgery and an 18-inch drainage tube for his wounds.

Two more attacks occurred in next year, but none hinted at the approaching horror for Frank, an 8-pound, 14-year-old Chihuahua. Frank never stood a chance. On Aug. 20, his head was severed.

In each case, the culprits were said to be a pair of pit bulls who live in Manhattan's Turtle Bay neighborhood. They belong to Rita Buium, a clothing boutique owner, whose female pit bull, Blush, gave birth to the two males a few years ago. Since then, those in the quiet neighborhood of brownstones and expensive apartment buildings say, Blush's offspring - Tiger and Bimby - have terrorized their dogs.

The story of the residents' failure to have the dogs taken off the streets, or at least muzzled, reads like a classic New York City tale of people trying to do what they believe is right, and discovering that gray areas in the law give them little recourse.

They have gone to court and won. They have contacted the city and the A.S.P.C.A. and learned that because the incidents involved only dog-on-dog violence, there is little officials can do. They have packed, roughly 60 strong, into a Starbucks after Frank's untimely end - he struggled in one of the pit bull's jaws for nearly seven minutes, and only pried free as his tiny head was severed from his spine - to plan strategy. Yet they have gotten nowhere. Tiger and Bimby remain on the streets. Ms. Buium proclaims their innocence; she said Frank brought it on himself.

"I was shocked to learn what little can be done to prevent and report dog-on-dog attacks in New York City," said Amy Apfelbaum, Murphy's owner. "I even sued the owner of the dogs in small-claims court and won, but this is not about money. Our neighborhood remains unsafe; and Frank's death could have been prevented."

Now they have attracted the attention of at least one local politician, Councilwoman Eva S. Moskowitz. "There is a giant loophole in the law," said Ms. Moskowitz. "If dogs attacks humans there is a lot the police can do, but it is not expressly stated what the police can do when a dog attacks another dog."

Ms. Moskowitz said she planned to introduce legislation this fall to make it a crime when a dog hurts another dog and it is not a case of self-defense. It all began at dawn nearly two years ago when Ms. Apfelbaum took Murphy to the dog run at Peter Detmold Park, a shaded enclave along the East River. Unprovoked, Ms. Apfelbaum says, Tiger and Bimby approached Murphy and went for the jugular. As Ms. Apfelbaum screamed and tried to rescue him, she said, Ms. Buium stood by impassively and did nothing. The veterinary bills topped $700. Ms. Buium refused to pay.

In an interview yesterday, Ms. Buium called Ms Apfelbaum "my first enemy." She said the dogs were playing gently when Ms. Apfelbaum suddenly grabbed her dog's collar to separate them. The jerk, Ms. Buium speculated, had inadvertently driven the buckle on the collar into Murphy's throat. But in April 2003 a small-claims court found Ms. Apfelbaum's version of events more credible and made Ms. Buium reimburse her for the bills.

Six dog owners who have organized to try to get the pit bulls off their streets said that what they called Ms. Buium's odd indifference to the violence as it occurred and afterward was especially troubling. They said she was violating an unspoken code of honor among canine owners that makes it possible to live with an animal in the crowded city.

Mike Marino, the owner of Bentley the sheepdog, recalls that as he was punching Tiger and Bimby to get them to stop, Ms. Buium did not command her dogs to stop. "Anyone else would have done something," he said. Ms. Buium did pay Bentley's $900 dollar veterinary bills without protest, but yesterday she said that she had been overcharged. "It was really just one little tooth bite," she said.

what a sick fucking bitch. it amazes me the things some people can draw pleasure from. hope those dogs on turn on her someday and rip her throat out.

Fucking bitch.

Sounds to me like some woman needs a spiked casserole..........

werd!

What a stupid fucking bitch !!

Always it's pit bulls. And people wonder why whole towns and entire communities are banning them.

I liken pit bulls to Trans Ams and Camaros...only Drug Dealers and White Trash own them.

she needs to be commited to a psychiatric hospital

Look at her

That's probably the only joy she will have.

The city can't do anything? I don't know if I believe that. Dogs with a history like that could be considered a weapon I would think. What if the next dog they attack is by a little kid?

In the old days if something like this happened those dogs would already be dead. Somebody would have destroyed them. What's sad is if something like that happened today she could sue and win.

When I was younger we had a dog, part chow. He bit my neighbor one day so we gave him away to a farm. Had he been full chow he would have been destroyed, by law.

fucking bitch

pitbulls have a rep, but they aren't even close to being the most dangerous dogs out there.

I knew a dude in Brooklyn who was breeding Fila Brasileoros. Now THAT fucker is a scary dog. Shit, maybe Chris will read that story and take one of his pups out for a walk in this woman's neighborhood.

this is a fucked up world we live in

damn man thats horrible

she needs to see a shrink..

When I first moved into my house 14+ years ago, there was this big chow living down the lane who would come over and rifle through my garbage cans tipping them over and making a mess, then he'd hunker down and take a big shit on my driveway.... every week he'd pull this same act.

Until one day I'd had enough. I was in my bathroom and saw him out the window. He had already made a mess with the garbage and was about to take his big shit. I was ready for him.

I took out my gas-powered pellet pistol (a 44 mag 'dirty harry' replica), opened the window and shot him right in the ass with two quick shots. He yowled in pain and took off, and never came back to fuck with my yard or my garbage. Ever.


True story.

They are good dogs...too bad they let assholes own them.

fucking stupid bitch

yup

Didn't these people hear about the coach (lacrosse?) killed in San Francisco a couple years ago by those two lawyer's dogs? The story started out just like this. Dozens of complaints by other residents of their building and other dog owners in the area of violent attacks by the dog and the city did nothing. Then the dogs attacked this woman at the door of her own apartment and killed her and everyone was surprised.

Those dogs need to be taken from the owner. Then the owner needs to be euthanized!

She looks a bit too satisfied in that pic.

i hope some dog eats her...

I remember that case. The couple also had an 'adopted son' serving time in prsion (life?) who happened to be a prominant leader of a white supremecist gang.

Plain and simple that Bitch needs her natural white ass kicked to the highest of an ass kicking can go.....

after attacking me or my pets I would go out of my way to kill those two mutts, hell when I was placed in jail, I would plead not guilty and let a jury decide for me. Knowing the back history on this woman would mosy likely get me off the hook, maybe a fine ok, but fuck it Telling a jury that this woman is a constant problem and that there is a grey area in the laws that keeps her out of jail. I think 99% of a jury pool would find you not guilty.

Pit Bulls when raised right are awesome dogs, I have been around quite a few of them and they are loving dogs. When raised right they are even recommended family dogs.. it's fuckheads that train their dogs to kill that should be banned and thrown in jail.

What he said. Someone in the neighborhood should toss them a cyanide steak. Problem solved.

Her neighbors should hire a doggy hit man and blow them fuckin pit bulls up
