So sorry about your dog

Keep us updated on her condition

There have been numerous posts about not letting your roam and I have to agree because
there are many dangers now days
for dogs allowed to roam and not under the watchful eye of "mom/dad"

Even though I have a huge fenced in yard,I walk my girl every day,
off leach in large parks or down country dirt roads

However, because there are bad dogs with bad owners, I ALWAYS carry Pepper Spray and I test in frequently and would use in in a heart beat to protect my girl

She got it into her head that it was OK to go up the street. I've spent the weekend finishing off a fence to my yard. But, I dunno. Since the pits have jumped their own fence and gone into other people's houses and yards, what's to say I'm not just making a meal out of my dog, where she would have no means of escape.

I'm just heartsick about the whole thing.

Don't let her swim in the pond...she might get back "on leach".

My neighbor has 2 dogs a poodle and a chow/pittbull type mix. Both dogs are untrained and are allowed to run around off leash. The poodle is particularly aggressive and will snap an bite at other dogs. I would be in favor of a local ordinance requiring training for all prospective dog owners.
