send in the dog whispering guy

A Sand Springs woman is badly bitten by her neighbor's two pit bulls Thursday night, while she was in her living room.
She thinks the dogs were after her two daschunds when they came crashing through the screen door and as News on 6 reporter Steve Berg explains, she got caught in the middle.
Teresa Willis is covered with bruises and bites after a terrifying encounter with her next-door neighbors' two pit bulls. "To put it mildly, it was extremely terrifying."
It all happened as she was sitting in her living room. It was a mild evening so she slid the glass up on her storm door. “I was sitting here reading and my dogs were sitting over here." She says her neighbor’s 3-year-old boy had let the dogs out and the lead dog came over and charged partway through the screen.
Skin the dog owner for it.
Ban the breed. Some dogs were not meant to live among us.
Who let the dogs out?
Who, who, who ,who
Who let the dogs out!
...
Agreed, and in the meantime shoot those two dogs and put
the owners in jail.
My patience with this breed and their typical class of owner is wearing dangerously thin.
Did you read that it was a 3 year old boy that let the dogs out? Sounds like the neighbor did have them contained.
If he only came "partway", how did she get bit?
Could have been an even worse situation...child was obviously unsupervised. So many times you hear of an unsupervised child slipping away and getting in with these dogs with disastrous results. I feel bad for the lady, but it's a good thing those dogs were focused on her dachshunds and not that 3 year old.
The three old was part of the family that owned the dogs. Obviously, that family consciously decided to live with the risk. The lady needing surgery was merely sitting in her living room, only guilty of owning two Pit-snacks.
A screen door is not going to stop pitbulls. It's in the mid 90's in Sand Springs. I'm guessing this situation occurred in the poorer section of town.
Problem with pitbulls are the owners: Usually they are thugs or wannabe thugs that are in their teens. They have no more concern for the dog's whereabouts as they would have for a fulfilling career in accounting.

Out here in LaLa land, the so called homeless, borderline homeless and the permanent "clients" of the mental illness and welfare industry own these 4 legged terrorists.
They love to tie up these brutes by a door of a store or in the back of their white trash old pickups to scare people.
"The lady needing surgery was merely sitting in her living room, only guilty of owning two Pit-snacks."
See - then she's partially at fault for owning tasty pit-snacks and teasing the pit bulls with them. It was only a matter of time before the pits wanted dinner...
For whatever it's worth, I'm still not sure why people own these dogs...
Off topic I did not want to start a new thread on this subject but wanted people to know that I killed a probable rabid coon this morning in harris county(houston) Texas. The interesting thing is animal control was the least bit concerned about it.Told me just to put it in the garbage pick up.
Containment that can be foiled by a 3 year old is not containment.
If rabies is common down there they probably see no reason to test. Rabies would be a rare event up here in WA.
