Two pit bull dogs ripped off a man's left hand and badly mauled his right arm before other people were able to beat the dogs away.

Owner should go to jail. If you properly handle Pit Bulls they can be , and usually are, well behaved. If you train them to be violent watch dogs you need to suffer the consequences when tragic things happen.

Always, always have a pistol handy. OK, I guess I shouldn't have said "handy", maybe "nearby".

Go back and find the original pair of Pit bulls and euthanize them. OK, that was tongue in cheek, but any breed that consistently mauls people should not be tolerated, and make no mistake, these dogs are bred to be killers.

"Charles Lawson, who co-owns the business, said the dogs were guarding the shop and belong to his partner. He said he didn't know how the dogs got out, but declined to comment further."

Someone is about to get sued, big time.

Considering he lost his left arm. I saw him on the local news tonight. He looks like he's been through hell. He was extremely lucky two people stopped and got those animals off of him. Those dogs need to be killed. They've tasted blood and that makes them even more dangerous. It makes you want to take a hammer on a walk. If you have one, aim for the head and keep swinging until the dog doesn't move. Then finish it off.
