Another Pit Bull Attack

Woman, 91, loses arms after pit bull attack
Amputation follows mauling by great-grandson's dog

The Associated Press Updated: 10:10 a.m. ET Feb. 16, 2004
ORANGE, Calif - A 91-year-old woman mauled by her great-grandson?s pit bull was in critical condition Monday, with both arms amputated at the elbow, officials said.

Ruby Sharum and her granddaughter were putting away groceries Friday night when the dog growled and then lunged at Sharum.

Next-door neighbor Shelbi Moore said Sharum?s granddaughter pounded on her door, screaming that her grandmother was being attacked. Moore said she walked into her neighbor?s kitchen after calling 911 and saw the pit bull hovering over the elderly woman with blood stains on the floor.

?I was terrified,? Moore said. ?I had always thought that dog might hurt somebody.?

Moore said she had called Animal Care Services at least 10 times in the past year because she and her two young daughters feared the dog.

The dog was euthanized on Saturday by county animal officials.

They just need to stop breeding pitbulls,

Its a shame how people fucked up a good breed

[flashfire]

ouch...I love dogs but I dont think a pitbull is a good pet

[Intelligence]

poor dog

[axelcat]

That sucks I think they should lock pit bulls up

[Doctor Dre]

The father of my GF is training dogs . He has a pitbull thats really craaaaaazy. If you toutched him he would bite you the fuck up

I think it's not really ok to judge the dog without knowing what the woman have done before the dog attacked her. You don't know it and i don't know it.

Most times the human is doing something wrong but everytime the pitbull or whatever is the bad one.

The only people that speak out in support of pitbulls are the white trash ghetto dwellers that own them. Period.

If you own a pitbull you are a piece of shit. I'm not going to debate this as it is known fact.

Damned right. I'm sure that 91 year old woman was pretty threatening and deserved to have her arms chewed off. People who breed/own dogs should be held responsible for whatever their dog does.

[beemk]

you cant stereotype all pitbulls. most of them are that way because of the owners. most people dont know how to properly raise dogs.

i agree. the dog clearly had problems. her grandson didnt do shit about it. the grandon should pay the price and animal care should take some heat to for not doing anything.

[lock]

oh the poor thing she has to spend her last days probably in great pain and most likely the wounds wont heal in her lifetime.

It is always the owners fault i have known people with pit bulls that didnt train them up to be rough dogs and they act like staffies. Although the potential for the dog is hazzardress and there really is no need to continue the breed as it is not indiginous to any country like a wolf or dingo. I always look at the owner when dogs attack. A dog is supposed to be mans best friend not his worst nightmare.

more like most people don't know how to choose a less aggressive dog.

there are exceptions to the rule in every case but with pit bulls only an idiot would decide to have this type of dog. so we've got a ton of idiots raising naturally aggresive dogs. great.

rictor ... stfu man. You think that i am a bitch because i am defending dogs? It's a fact that most people acting wrong in front of a dog. Every dog ... if big or small realize it when you're fearful. If this point is reached and the dog realized it allready it's enough to do something hectical or whatever and you're supposed to be bitten. And it's not only the pitbull that's acting that way. It's nearly every dog you can get.

Now tell me ... do you know what happened before the woman was attacked and what the reason for the attack could be!? No, you can't!

And no, i do not own a pitbull. I own a belgian shepherd.

[stevecore]

when's the last time you heard about a poodle mauling someone and their artms needed to be amputated?

[SubSonic]

Wow! That's the greatest compareison i have ever seen stevecore. Congrats man!

I haven't said, that a poodle can mauling you that way, that your arm have to be amputated. But a poodle can bite like every other dog.

[Evil1]

oh for fucks sakes, pitbulls don't run around attacking people any more then any other breed, pitbulls were bred to fight each other, in the fight pit there was a handler, a fucking human, who in midfight would have to jump in the pit and pull the dogs apart.

Pitbulls make shit guard dogs becuase they usually WONT attack.

The media blows it way the fuck out of proportion because when a pitbull does attack it does massive damage. And if that dog is attacking a human it was trained BY a human to do so because they we're bred to NOT attack humans.

No... they need to stop breeding the idiots who own these dogs..

I know plenty of yellow labs that are just as aggressive as pitt bulls..

Its getting to the point where ANYONE who wants to own ANY breed should have to go thru a riggerous screening process to see if they are fit to care for the dog.. Much as I feel some parents of children should go thru..

Before you say I don't know what the fuck Im talking about, My wife has been in the emergency veterinary field for over 5 years now.. She's seen far more cases of things than most of you ever have...

[chodadog]

Pitbulls are like any other dog. How vicious and aggressive they are going to be is entirely in the hands of the owner.

Rictor: stfu.

[mardigras]

Wow at 91 do you really need arms?

If I'm 91 feed me pudding

i agree. i adopted a pit mix and they had me fill out a application with over 50 questions and did a house check and everything. they call to check up on me and the dog too. i've been bit by 3 or 4 different kinds of dogs before, none of them being pitbulls.

Not true . Pitbulls are way worst than other dogs ... more agressive. They backstab.

Awsome.. Adopted dog =) More people like you are needed.. so there are not thousands of dogs put to sleep as tens of thousands are born to be put to sleep down the road...

While I am not totally for the end of dog breeding, I think there needs to be LESS breeding, and more controlled.. Backyard breeding should not be allowed..

I am all for people adopting, spaying and neutering their dogs...

Thats one step in responsability.. Helps your dog live a longer life too..

Any dog is a good pet if raised right. When you take a dog and train it to gaurd... any dog can be a killer.

I had two chows... both great dogs... neither one had the typical "Chow" stereotype... mean and one owner dogs... I know, i rescued them from the pound.

I also had a pure wolf... not the stupid wolf dog hybrid... a real wolf... 1/2 alaskan white and half minnesota timber... Raised from a pup and she was the best fucking dog I ever owned.

Its all the way they are raised.

Big dogs are a weapon, like a hand gun. They should only be in the hands of trained professionals. You should need a training course and a license to own one.

I have personally sent two pit bulls to their death recently and successfully sued their owners for attacking me and my own dog (harmless little dog I USED to walk through the neighborhood on a leash). If MY dog ever bit some one, there's no fucking way his teeth would even get through their clothing. And since he's under 2 feet tall on his hind legs and weighs about 6 pounds, he would probably have trouble hurting even a child if he wanted to.

Of course, he would never get the chance since he's too small to jump the backyard fence and he never goes out the front door without a leash.

[JDog]

Everytime this subject comes up we all get in a debate! Me myself, I think that pitbulls aren't bad pets if they're trained right and aren't breed from a fighting dog!

Just my I've gone through enough of these threads!

Your not very familiar with bites..

A rats jaw can clamp down at aproximately 24,000 lbs per sq inch.

A dogs bite can be up to 3000 lbs per sq inch..

A dog can also easily bite up to 5 times in one second..

A dog can easily puncture another dogs skin even as a small dog..

I have seen a chihuaha attack on a larger dog at my wifes work..
it was not pretty..

Also.. Dogs teeth do not have to even penetrate clothing to cause a rupture of the vessels under the skin..

You never know when a dog will turn aggressive, it does not matter if your dog is a chihuaha,lab, pitt, collie, or a fucking pug.. Your dog can go from calm to aggressive if it feels its space is being broken, or if it feels you are in danger, or if you have someone in the house that startles the dog while its sleeping..

These are facts.. and they apply to all dogs..

[mardigras]

I inherited a male weinie dog and his half jack russel daughter. Between the 2 of them they think they can kick some ass behind their gate but it's funny taking them outside the yard where they shivver at every new thing they encounter

Not only dogs... but all animals too... any animal you back into a corner and they feel threatened will attack... ANY ANIMAL... even the human kind.

[weaselbrains]

I've heard the same shit in the past from a dozen morons:

"Pit Bulls aren't bad - I have 20 of them at my place and they are like cuddly little teddy bears."

You are so fucking blind and stupid.

If I could breed a dog with shotguns for legs and a flamethrower instead of a tail you dickwads would probably want one.

And you'd still be talking the same shit - "If you raise it properly its not dangerous". "other dogs bite people too"

Go fuck yourselves.

On another matter:

Breeding animals and buying from breeders is FUCKED. There are thousands of beautiful unwanted dogs and cats being killed all the time and people just let them die because they want a designer burmese cat or sharpei that matches their furniture.

When i was younger, my family owned a staffy cross pitbull terrier. The dog was hardly placid, but it never so much as barked at us. Someone coming into our yard without permission though.. well that's another story. Gotta love that lock jaw when it's teeth are wrapped around some bastard's arm.
