I got the nerve up to tell my husband that the new female was flying in from TX on the 20th of this month. Today I bought a little male olde for her to play with. We already have a 3 y/o pitt bull and since the post above was so scary I wanted to post this on e on a lighter note!
PIT BULL INVOLVED IN INCIDENT WITH CHILD AT AKC EVENT!!!
AP NEWS: BERRYVILLE , VA APRIL 5 2007
>From the World Wide Web
Stanly Police were called today to the Clarke County Fairgrounds to
investigate an incident involving a Pit Bull Terrier dog and a 9 year old child.
According to witnesses, the child was walking near the show rings unsupervised when she suddenly came face to face with the 70 lb Pit Bull Terrier dog.
The child threw her arms around the dog's neck, reports
say, when the unthinkable happened. The dog began enthusiastically licking the
girl's face as his tail wagged briskly.
"It was awful", said one bystander, "there was nothing we could do. That dog
was just giving that child every ounce of love he had and no one did a thing
to stop it".
Another witness, who took video of the event, said "This happens all the
time, I don't know how it hasn't made the news before now". One spectator,
who declined to be named in this interview, told reporters, "The sounds were
just heartwrenching, all that laughing and giggling. It made me smile so
hard my face hurts. I plan to sue for pain and suffering". The handler of
the dog admits this is not the first time such an incident has occurred, and
that the owners were "well aware of the stable, loving and patient
temperament of this dog". The owners were unavailable for comment.
Police state that the handler, who was noticeably unrepentant, was cited for
Reckless Entertainment. The dog was given roasted chicken treats and was not
taken into custody.
Please forgive this, its in two places before I saw this post.
