NEWNAN, Ga. (AP) — Police say a pit bull was repeatedly stabbed during a pet adoption event inside a PetSmart...

Good God, people in this country are coming unhinged....

[Kozak]

I’m guessing the adoption was cancelled?

[MrB]

I’m no expert, but I’d say they were doing it wrong.

[GladesGuru]

Let me guess - it was a white pit bull?

[MeshugeMikey]

was the attacker a Caucasian? Black Dog?

I wonder if the animal lovers are going to come out and demand that the man be arrested, then executed.

But it was a Pit Bull, thus a quandary for some will exist.

Not a lot of information on this one based on this article. Probably best to see what further info becomes available.

I’d say no the pit was “tugging” on the ear of a westy and the westies owner went off on the pit.

You didn’t read the article, did you?

Dog was adopted by the worms, IIRC.

Owner of the dog the pit bull grabbed by the ear probably thought his dog was in danger, and in an instant the situation could well have “gone to teh dogs in a hurry”.

So, he protected his property.

Sad, but seems justifiable.

(not saying the pit bull stabber was black. I don't think so.)

You didn’t read the article, did you?

I did, but should've read more into the meaning of "tugging at the ear" of the Westie. My bad.

Pit Bull attacks, no charges.

Not long ago, I watched a program by the Dog Whisperer, Cesar Millan, about the Pit bull and about its American heritage and place in our homes and in our history.

Then, it's like everything changed and the pit bull's image and status were transformed and inverted into the opposite. It struck me that so much is like that for US now.

This sort of change is a common thread in our nation, national identity and culture, our ideals, symbols, you name it, all under a similar sort of dilution or polar opposite transformation.

After watching Cesar's program, I see the pit bull as both an example that Reagan's warning was correct and that he was an optimist. Never a generation away, best case.

[who knows what evil?]

I’m no fan of pit bulls, but this crazy son of a b*tch needs to be taken off the streets yesterday...

Pit bull advocates be darned! Just had a potty go after one of my dog walkers dog. Her toy poodle needed 14 stitches at the throat! Many of these pits turned in for adoption have undisclosed history. Like Chows they can be very hard to read.

Proudly posting without reading the article since 2000.

I love Pit Bulls....if properly managed

But if it attacked his purse dog then on the surface it looks like legit kill

My daughter has a big white pit bull....and a teacup yorkie

Axle is very protective of the yorkie

He was raised from birth with her

And. He is extremely dog aggressive with other big males

I can’t have he and my Rott together

.... gotta keep em separated.....

A police report states that a man stabbed the pit bull, Clara, after it slipped out of its collar and began tugging on the ear of his dog, a Westie Terrier.
