as much as I love animals I would've shot those dogs (and maybe the owner)

[The Noof]

I REALLY can't watch this kinda stuff.I just boil over.The dogs WOULD be dead.Owner ?Whatever it takes.I would be off to jail & handing over all me restricted weapons & it would be worth every second of the trouble.Good thing cats are one of the toughest thing on the planet.

Yup, I'd of picked them both off

I got a lovely .380 Browning for just that purpose.

[pennywise]

Yes sir, pick a day, could be my 380 or the 45. The AR is to hard to conceal :thumbsup:

Some would & will say that .380 isn't enough for that job.I also have .357,9mm,& .44 mag.I would use the Browning 1911-380 before any of those in that circumstance.I reload my own ammo & I have developed a load that rivals the Buffalo bore .380 which exceeds normal pressure .38 special.Plenty of gun for that job.I keep it VERY close in my home.The big boys are put away.
For the record, that load is a 95gr campro jhp over 4.0 gr Tite Group.Pretty zippy in a .380.

It's not the dogs fault - blame the owner for lack of training and control.

unfortunately once a dog gets a taste of blood the only solution is to put them down

Totally disagree.

PS - My dogs taste blood at every meal.

did they fetch it themselves?

This can be attributed to a common phenomena amongst predators called henhouse syndrome, or surplus killing. This happens when a predator kills more animals than it can immediately eat. Some times the predator will kill numerous animals without eating any at all.
As a result of henhouse killing, even well fed domesticated dogs need to seize the opportunity to hunt whenever they can, especially when traveling in packs

The dogs actions are not unusual and are part of an animals predatory instinct.

My Husky, who was being fed Eukanuba, Blue Buffalo etc ,, escaped to the neighbors coop, where she killed 14 chickens,
didn't eat any ,, just killed them --- who knows what triggered it,, maybe she was PMS'ing

Of course not but they might if I didn't keep them under control. Dogs (and cats) are instinctively predatory hypercarnivores.

Different breeds have different prey drives, Huskies have a high prey drive. She was just being a dog doing what a dog instinctively does. As a human it is our job to train the dog to minimize prey drive and to protect our livestock from predation.

my buddy had a 160lb rottie(the father of mine)
he was at an outdoor stag when he was attacked
his dog almost ripped the face off the attacker
not a week later dog attacked an old woman getting into her car
about 2 weeks after that he attacked the neighbour for shaking his hand
dog was put down that day
this dog was never aggressive(played with my kids when they were little)once it tasted blood it never stopped
my neighbour until a few years ago had 3 mastiffs and 2 of them swarmed my son walking his dog(vet bill was 2k)
a month later they got loose again and attacked some kids playing with a ball
I personally almost beat one of the dogs to death with a bat
they were put down next day and these dogs were used to kids as well seeing as their were 6 of them in same house
once they become aggressive it's nearly impossible to get them to stop
I have 8 dogs but most are Chihuahua and I keep them away from little kids cause little kids approach too quick because they just see a little dog
from experience I would rather be bit by a big dog...lol

my buddy had a golden lab and when it was a puppy it got beaten over the head by a goose
following year it got into the pen and killed them all
I just figured it was revenge..lol

The examples you give are exactly what I am saying. The problem is the owners who don't understand their dogs, especially your buddy with the rottie who seems to have no control at all and repeats his failures. The working breeds tend to be very good at protecting their people from what they perceive as a threat. An awful lot of people have dogs that they shouldn't have.

(I don't claim to be an expert but I have been involved with large breed dogs all my life, I'm a registered breeder showing, competing and training dogs. I have studied canine behaviour, anatomy, genetics, etc.)

[dishuser]

what threat is an 80 year old lady projecting?
my point is dog was never aggressive until first bite(protecting his master)
after that it went downhill

Since we're on the dog subject
I have a question regarding those small breeds

Have you noticed how yappy they get when strangers come knocking

My sister has a Bichon Maltese ,,, the fluff coming out my dryer filter screen is bigger than him ,, yet when I go ringing the door he comes charging, barking and snarling at me , I am 5'11 and 220lbs ,, what on earth is he chasing ?

I mean in comparison,, I would be it chasing a sequoia tree

Is it it's eyes ?? They don't see size , and I look it's size or smaller?

Or are they just , galacticly stupid ?

got a male chihuahua and if smells a bitch in heat his eyes go red(on edge..lol)
if the bitch is in our house I won't even pet her cause he's nuts

[dogdayz]

Dogs come in all sizes from chihuahua to tibetan mastiff. They all have the brain of a dog and I don't think they know how big or small they are. :tehe:

LOL .... Agreed .. That's what I thought

Got a pure English bully, she'll let you know who's around, but the minute you put out your hand she'll lick it. Her big'ol jaws scare people, but she steers clear of other dogs entirely unless she's been around them. The local mascot is the Bully and she's loved everywhere she goes around town. We have wild turkeys, deer, tons of rabbits and neighbors chickens out daily through the yard, either she's extremely lazy or just doesn't care. I wish she'd at least keep them out of the garden. She just lets them wander through.

Our pug is same way.Funny she is a bundle of trouble or a bundle of joy.

I have 2 pitbulls chainsaw male hacksaw female they were raised from puppies with 2 lambs
when their now with the sheep they act like lambs around me too anyone else gets near them
and is alone they go crazy if they see a cat or another small animal and im with them they will be like lambs
im not there they will hunt that animal down as a team and kill it ripping it in half.

i never have these dogs in public and they should not be allowed in public areas because if an owner
of a pitbull did this he would be an irresponsible owner like the woman in the gif these dogs are printed to the owner from pups anyone else is fair game if it decides to attack,might even attack his owner if he is irresponsible in raising the dog.

awhile back i put a neighbors dog down that kept killing my birds just another irresponsible owner
whom didnt even care about his dog i had to bury the poor thing on my land.

Pitties are an unpredictable breed

Here is a story out of Canada where a Pitt killed his own owner and hurt a toddler


"A Canadian Woman Was Killed By Her Pitbull-Boxer Dog Yesterday And This Is What Will Likely Happen To The Animal - Narcity" https://www.narcity.com/calgary/a-canadian-woman-was-killed-by-her-pitbull-boxer-dog-yesterday-and-this-is-what-will-likely-happen-to-the-animal

You hear stories like these all the time -- the following is an exert from the report --

Additionally, if the family decides to ensure that the dog will not be a threat to the community, they could potentially keep the animal. Family and friends have stated that the dog had never shown any aggression or attacked anyone before the deadly incident on Saturday evening.

My neighbor,, a young woman, has a Pitt ,, it scares the sheet out of me every time it comes over to sniff around

She tells me what a wonderful beautiful gentile dog he is .....

Until he rips her apart and eats her insides --- then he'll be ,, a bad boy -- you a bad boy --- bad bad boy !!

good read that young woman may find out the hard way
funny how ppl think that pits and other animals dont have emotions
like ppl do ever get in a bad mood pissed off at a crazy driver felt like pullin
your pistol you may be able to control your temp but the doggy cant.

[Gates07]

in this state you will get more jail time for killing an animal than a person

[zayden]

Some breeds are essentially wild animals. Yes a person who is good at it can train them to behave but for how long and at what risk to others ? Look at those fools in Las Vegas with their Tiger stage show...

When my beagle "snaps" he goes and has a nap.
