A Pit Bull attacked a neighbor's Beagle. I hit the Pit Bull with three rounds from my .357 .
That got the dog's attention, he dropped the Beagle. I imagine he was was in shock. He started to trot away.
Another neighbor put seven rounds from his 9mm into him. . At that point , the dog had some serious sucking wounds, he collapsed and died.
I believe it. They actually bit through and flattened the steel belted radials on a police car. The cops shot them multiple times before the dogs died. The dog owner sued too. Scary animals.
