pit bulls, love children Options

[Divergent Realit...]

XOXO

This two-year-old pit bull shows no signs of aggression, but it did on Sunday when it apparently sodomized a Lockport toddler.

Residents who live in the neighborhood where it happened are still talking about it.

One neighbor said, "You hear about dogs attacking children in horror films, but as far as in this community, it's never happened."

Police say the boy was sexually assaulted in his Washburn Street home by his family's two-year-old pit bull, who had been with them since it was a puppy.

Lockport Police Detective Captain Larry Eggert said, "A little boy was home with his family, and the family pit bull actually sodomized the boy."

Eggert told us the boy's family members and neighbors had to beat the dog to get it off the child.

Schultz: How serious are the child's injuries?

Eggert: He's had some surgeries to repair some pretty significant damage.

Animal advocates agree that this case is an unusual one. While pit bulls are notorious for being aggressive, they say it's not always true.

Al Chille is executive director of the SPCA in Niagara County.

Chille said, "I, personally, am against this idea of outlawing any specific breed of animal."

Schultz: What would trigger a family pet dog to attack like this?

Chille: One doesn't know, really. ... There could be some quirk in the brain of the dog. ... It could be the smell of the diaper or something. I don't know.

Police are bringing in a behavioral expert to help determine what triggered the sexual assault.

The boy's family wants the dog destroyed, but nothing will be done until the investigation is completed.

Chille said, "The intent, apparently, wasn't to hurt the child. ... My understanding is the child had no bites on him at all. ... I guess the message is be respectful of a dog, until you absolutely know the animal."

well, the family concerned seems intent on removing the doggie.

thats a very strange situation.

sorry but she sounds like a redneck

yes animal cruelty. like the people who are charged with it for abusing their pitbulls. how is shooting a dog without provocation not fitting into that?

in the article the head of the SPCA said he didnt support putting down pitbulls for the sake of them being pitbulls

um you wouldnt get in trouble for putting an antifreeze covered steak on a lawn? thats totally riduclous. pitbulls are the only animals that enjoy steaks and may get out of their yard or leash? any dog or animal could eat that or a child could get into contact with it and die. but shes concerned about her kids?
doesnt make any sense to me and yeah indiscriminately trying to kill animals is illegal.

adn other breeds of dogs have been known to attack and hurt kids, even collies. other breeds of dogs are known for being bitey and aggressive especially to kids. dalmations for example
whats your opinion on german shepards?

so you want to kill off dogs that some have been known to hurt people but you support wide use gunownership. and thats fine if you know how to use it and trained to use a gun? exactly like dog ownership. they are dangerous if they arent trained correctly

where are you living where there are just roaming free pitbulls? i guess its the same situation with pedophiles? paranoia. you live smack dab in a dallas neighborhood not like out in the boondocks. you never see any other type of dog that got out running around? you can be sure as hell if some yuppie family got their lab killed because of your plan theyd be pretty pissed and youd look like a psycopath
