BALTIMORE, Md. --
Police said a Maryland woman is dead after she was mauled to death by a pit bull she adopted just two weeks earlier.

The woman has been identified as 64-year-old Robin Conway.

On Monday, authorities were dispatched to Conway's home on Tamar Drive after reports of the attack.

The incident happened when Conway took the dog out for their evening walk. According to WMAR, when she didn't return, her family got worried.

Conway's husband looked outside and found her lying in the backyard with the dog standing over her.

The family quickly tied the dog to a fence post and called 911.

After officers arrived, Conway was pronounced dead at the scene.

After attempts to subdue the dog failed, he was euthanized.

It was a tragedy for the family, especially because Conway's sister, Susan LeClair, said she loved animals.

"She was in love with that dog," LeClair told WMAR. "And she is in love with animals -- Robin ... loved animals, all kinds of animals. I was the one that wimped out. She was the one who said, 'Oh I'll take the fish off the hook."

Extremely dangerous breed. Should be outlawed.

Earl do you think the pitbull shouldn't have been euthanized, that it could be rehabilitated?

Should a person have a background check prior to purchasing a pitbull, like they do with guns?

dog was a lost cause at that point so yeah it should be euthanized, but it all starts with the shit head that originally owned the dog

yes there should be background checks but that won't ever happen

Pitbulls have been bred for generations to be killers.

It's in their DNA to be killers.

They are time bombs.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pit_bull

"Pit bulls were created by breeding bulldogs and terriers together to produce a dog that combined the gameness and agility of the terrier with the strength of the bulldog.[3] In the United Kingdom, these dogs were used in blood sports such as bull-baiting and bear-baiting. These blood sports were officially eliminated in 1835 as Britain began to introduce animal welfare laws. Since dogfights were cheaper to organize and far easier to conceal from the law than bull or bear baits, blood sport proponents turned to pitting their dogs against each other instead. Dog fighting was used as both a blood sport (often involving gambling) and a way to continue to test the quality of their stock. For decades afterwards, dog fighting clandestinely took place in small areas of Britain and America. In the early 20th century pit bulls were used as catch dogs in America for semi-wild cattle and hogs, to hunt, and drive livestock, and as family companions.[3] Some have been selectively bred for their fighting prowess.[5][6]"

Strength? Cat's don't operate on strength. They are sinister genius' who plot the best way to destroy you and get away with it. Screw getting euthanized when Dad Hubby comes home and finds wife torn to shreds with blood in the cats fur. No, they put eye drops in your drinks when you are distracted. They knock the hairdryer into the bathtub on "accident". That brute strength stuff is for the dogs.
