Pit Bull Kills Baby in Detroit
« on: October 08, 2012, 10:17:42 AM »
rancid dogs usually owned by utter scum. i can just imagine the owner of this mutt believing the ridiculously sad fantasy that these beast from hell are perfect family pets that'd never hurt a fly. sadly for them it's took the life of their baby to make them realise their pathetic delusions. poor kid  :'(

i also read another story of a ny couple whose little lass got badly mauled on the face by another one of these filthy dogs... poor little mite !
 




By Denise A Justin, Mon, October 08, 2012

A 3-week-old baby girl was killed by a Pit Bull in west Detroit on Thursday, October 4. Her 24-year-old mother said she had just fed the infant and placed her in a car seat on the dining room floor at a friend’s home, according to the Detroit Free Press.

The sad incident occurred in the 700 block of Stahelin Avenue, near Tireman Street. The baby was reportedly taken to Sinai-Grace Hospital by an emergency vehicle with a police escort blocking traffic, in the hope she could be saved.

Detroit police seized the 2-year-old male Pit Bull, named King, from the home shortly after 5:45 p.m. Thursday, according to reports.

Detroit police said the dog was not vicious toward the officers as it was being taken away. The family also claimed the dog was not vicious and that there are other children in the house.

The dog owners believe the Pit Bull smelled the baby formula on the infant's clothes, according to reports. The dog mauled the infant's face.

The owners stated that the dog, who was just fed scraps out the back door, somehow got into the house and attacked the baby while her mother had her back turned, according to the report.

Officials at Detroit's animal control unit asked the Humane Society to euthanize the Pit Bull on Friday morning because “they did not have a vet available,” spokesman Kevin Hatman said. After the dog was euthanized, the body was returned to the city's animal control center to be checked for rabies.

Rose Hill, a neighbor said the dog is well-known in the neighborhood. "They have a pole in their hand to get in the backyard. If the dog is that vicious...you shouldn't even have the dog, period," said Hill.

"We see pit bulls everywhere now," she added. "You shouldn't have to be scared to come out of your house and see any kind of dog sitting up there. That's not right, at all."

No arrests have been made as yet. Detroit Police sent the case to the Wayne County Prosecutor's Office to determine if any charges will be filed, according to the Detroit Free Press.

Merritt Clifton, editor of Animal People, maintains a data base that tracks dog attacks by breed. According to his latest report on statistics compiled nationwide, 46 per cent of all fatal dog attacks reported to the media between 1982 and 2011 involved pit bulls or 'close-pit' mixes.

IS IT TIME TO TAKE A NEW LOOK AT PIT BULL ADVOCACY?

Is this tragic death of a newborn a signal for Pit Bull advocates and humane organizations which claim that all Pit Bulls are just misunderstood “Nanny dogs” and ALL attacks by Pit Bulls are the fault of the owner, to start reconsidering what they are doing? By unilaterally rejecting all efforts to develop laws that would provide reasonable, humane restrictions on anyone who keeps a Pit Bull, how can we improve the odds that these dogs will have "good" owners?

No other-breed of dog is so disproportionately abused or neglected by the person responsible for its care and no other breed suffers so silently. Where are the voices which claim to speak for them as they die in fighting pits or starve to death chained in yards?  The only time there is major outcry (except in the Michael Vick celebrity case which promised major donor support for "saving" his dogs) is when an errant Pit Bull is facing euthanasia because it has mauled or killed! .

Many of the reports of Pit Bulls suddenly attacking appear to be in homes where the dog is a beloved, trusted, indoor family member. But, this particular report of the 19-day-old baby’s death in Detroit is particularly disturbing for a number of reasons. Was the pole mentioned by the neighbors as “always carried into the yard” by the owners actually used to fend off an aggressive dog? Was it just a threat to keep the dog from jumping up? Or, was it used to harm the dog?

If a dog is only being fed scraps thrown out the back door, was the animal hungry and so desperate that it killed the baby trying to get food out of its mouth? Or was this a young, unaltered aggressive male dog merely expressing total dominance over his environment?

Will those who claim to love the breed demand an investigation of the treatment of the dog and work to tighten the requirements to assure more responsible Pit Bull ownership, or will they merely comb the news sites from the anonymity of their computers and automatically proclaim in rote that the attack had to be the owner’s fault, not the dog?

Funny, we never hear about Welsh Terriers and Cocker Spaniels murdering infants and others. Any particular reason you feel the need to to rationalize this particular breed's behavioral issues?

I can name many but what would be the point, you wouldnt know them. I lived in the ghetto and there were quite a few.  They all wanted to be thugs which always struck me as a person of average intelligence wanting to have Down syndrome.

I see what you did there...

Seriously though, that is a tragic story.  The dog was not socialized correctly, and this poor child paid the ultimate price. :-\

Cocker Spaniels aka Schizo dogs aka bi-polar dogs, have a very, very high bite record. And are prone to "going crazy". I've been around several that acted very aggressive, almost like they were rabid.
I've been bit by a chocolate lab, never a pit bull, yet labs and retrievers are "safe dogs", "Marylanders dogs".

Although, every thug wannabe has a pit bull, or if they deal drugs (regardless of race ) a pit comes with the territory, like a handgun...

Don't get me started! this shit happens all the time, over 22 Americans alone have been killed by Pitbulls this year, and the year isn't even over.  Just a few weeks ago a Animal Rescue angel (yes that's what these Pit Nutters call themselves) was killed by her throng of mutant dogs, including 7 Pitbulls.  Also this year Rebecca Carey another animal rescue worker was also killed by her pack of dogs that included two Pitbull and two Presa Canarios.  Last year a pregnant Darla Napora, a dedicated member of the group BADRAP - an advocacy group that lobbies on behalf of Pitbulls to remove their stigma and prove they aren't dangerous dogs was killed savagely by her own Pitbull in her own home.  The husband was such a Pitbull Nutter he buried the murdering Pitbull with his wife's body.  I could go on all day about this, but I better not, I have been down this path with getbiggers before, and as someone who has survived an attack by two Pitbulls and advocated for BSL ever since, I have come to learn what an emotive issue it is, if I go on too much about it, it really affects me. 

So I will say this and remove myself from this thread.  Pitbulls are not suitable dogs for a civilised society and should be sterilised and grandfathered out of existence.  This is my sincere belief, it has nothing to do with revenge, it is simply become too great a health and safety issue for communities worldwide.  Pitbulls were bred for the sole purpose of being the ultimate fighting breed of dog, they can attack and remain attacking for a very long time, in other words, they don't stop, their jaws and skull are bred in such a way that they can remain breathing after clamping on to you with their jaws, they then tear and shake, using their extremely powerful jaws to inflict injuries that surgeons have compared to lion and shark attacks.  If you don't believe, don't make me post pics here, as someone with a website and Facebook page dedicated to reporting these stories and promoting BSL I have seen it all.  The injuries inflicted by these dogs are not pretty and will remain with you a very long time.

I have said my piece, and I will now exit the thread before all the Nutters turn up excusing the breed and telling everyone how gentle and loving the NANNY DOG is.

My friend had a pit bull, had him for over 6 years and was a nice obedient dog. Then he had a son, within 2 days of the baby being home, he got rid of the dog cause he said the dog was extremely jealous of the new born. Very dangerous to have a new born around a family dog.

That's why you bring a puppy in and let them grow up together.



the two couples i knew purchased puppies vs full grown dogs.

So, they just got done feeding a 3 WEEK old infant, placed it in a car seat on the DINING ROOM FLOOR at a friends house with their dog roaming around?

I don't care what breed somebody owns(looks more like an American Bull Dog not an APBT anyway). You DO NOT place a newborn in a car seat on the dining room floor.

Sad situation for everyone.

My parents had to do that with their lab when I was born, it was either me or the dog..
The dog would bark and was extremely jealous...


Also, with puppies, it's been said to play with their mouths and feet, because they are uncomfortable with hands in those areas, so that helps when you have babies around.

LOL...the bullshit that comes out of your mouth.

Pitbullls are responsible for over half of all attacks, vs every other breed combined. but you keep making excuses for everything about black culture that there is.

I see you threw in your usual "white people things are bad too" reference, by saying you got bit by a lab.

I have to agree with this, every dog attack I have read about seems to always be about pitbulls

I never make excuses....never have I. And I deal with far more than you've ever seen.

Cocker Spaniels have one of the highest bite rates. And they are known as schizo dogs.
Pit bulls only gained popularity due to hip hop culture, and as I said every thug wannabe has to have one, doesn't matter what race they are. Deal with it. And the dudes who deal drugs, heroin, crack, or weed, what dog do they have? A pit, that's what, just like they have a handgun. Nobody who deals drugs doesn't have a gun in their possession.

Excuses, please. People like you always look for an excuse to say sons bullshit.
I see logic and reasoning, bad behaviors have causes...nobody does stupid ish or criminal behavior for no reason. But, people like you live in a simplistic world where 1+3=4, but never ask where "1" and "3" came from. Never question why people act the way they do, "oh it must be because of their skin color", bullshit.

Once you see white folk acting the same, without interaction of black people, and Latinos and Asians, then maybe you'll learn something...

And by the way, it was rednecks that were breeding pits before it was fashionable in the 'hood.

Does anyone know how many different breeds are clumped into "pit bulls" and also, the mutts that walk the streets that "look" pitbull also get thrown into those numbers.

Why is it completely socially acceptable to villianize a breed of dog but not a race of people?
Liar!!!!Filt!!!!
