Good job. Nothing like a 45 to stop the show.
I’ve got a jackass neighbor with one of these dogs constantly getting loose and terrorizing the neighborhood. It may meet a similar fate someday.
Good shootin'. Unarmed there would have likely been more victims.
Of course this could have all been prevented if the neighbors had just stayed in their homes. I mean the pit bull was gentle as can be, so I'm sure the neighbors were teasing it. /s
Yep. Sad they didn’t know their neighbor, but they did outstanding. Charging dog head shot, good job.
YIKES! My old neighborhood!
If I knew there were so many good neighbors, I might not have moved.
My friend in Atlanta just sent this site to me today!

The neighbor’s right to own guns saved his neighbor.
Beats me why folks own those kinds of dogs anyway.
The dog then turned to attack another neighbor who was approaching with a .45-caliber pistol. He killed the dog with one shot to the head, McGee said.
THIIISss.....
Is the correct response for all uncaged and undisciplined/unrestrained animals...
Raging pit bulls...
and... all raggy-head jihadi's....
Live like an animal...
Act like an animal....
Treat others like animals...
AND...
Kill like an animal....
THEN....
Expect to die like an animal...
Shot dead in the street ---
Have a nice weekend!
Apparently the aliens are not the only deadly thing in Roswell.
To get my dog to release a ball or stick, I'd press down on his tongue, and he'd open right up. 'Wonder if this would work if attacked by a pit bull? Somebody let me know if this works! :)
A Roswell woman on her daily walk Friday morning was attacked by a neighbor's pit bull, which tore into her face, head and arm, police said.
Lan Khanh Trinh, 69, was saved by neighbors who responded to her screams. She underwent surgery at North Fulton Regional Hospital for severe but non-life threatening injuries, said Roswell Police Lt. James McGee.
Twelve-year-old Payton Newell was walking the dog when Trinh came up and tried to pet it, Payton said.
"He started growling and I said, 'Don't pet him,' and she said something and she reached down to pet him," Payton said. "He backed away, then he muscled his way out of the collar and attacked her."
Neighbor Robert Bailey, a 37-year-old computer technician, heard Trinh's screams outside his window at 7:45 a.m. and raced out of his house in boxer shorts and a robe.
"He was attacking her face, biting and grabbing," Bailey said.
Bailey yanked the 60-pound male, named Achilles, off of Trinh, then positioned himself between the dog and the victim. Then he came to his senses.
"It was one of those instinctive kinds of things — you just rush in," Bailey said. "Then it's, OK, I've got the dog off of her — now what do I do?" You hope for reinforcements, which is what he got.
Neighbors tried to stop the attack by beating the dog with sticks and shovels, but "they didn't faze him," said Charles Tedford, president of the homeowners association in the Lake Forest subdivision, where the attack occurred.
The dog also attacked Spencer Alexander, a neighbor who had been hitting the dog with a stick. Alexander was bitten in the left arm.
The dog then turned to attack neighbor Marc Del Santro, who was approaching with a .45-caliber pistol. Del Santro killed the dog with one shot to the head, McGee said.
Tedford said Trinh speaks almost no English, but says "good morning" with a smile to everyone she meets during her daily walks in the neighborhood off of Old Alabama Road.
"We know her as the little smiling lady," Tedford said. "She's everybody's friend."
The pit bull's owner, Glenda Newell, said her "heart goes out to this person — she's a very, very nice lady," but she should have backed off when Achilles started growling.
"My dog is very friendly, but he doesn't like to be touched by other people," Newell said. "He's not a monster. He was a very loving dog. Maybe she just scared him."

If we're going to have keyword abuse, could the spelling at least be correct?
Ping!
A citizen with a .45 saves the day.
Good. I'll bet he'd never hurt a flea, either. Dog of peace
"I knew I should'na called that porcupine, "porky."
I read the article. As usual, the owner comments on how the monster was a very loving animal and then tries to blame the victim. Pit Bulls and any pit bull mix should be outlawed and destroyed. And before pit Bull owners start the usual nonsense about how the bad ones are not purebreds, yadda-yadda-yadda, everyone can recognize them, the head features are very easy to spot. And if there is any doubt, err on the side of caution and kill it anyway.
