A pit bull bit a girl in town, and the girl went to the hospital. Apparently, there’s a statute in this state now (CO). The owner was charged with unlawful ownership of a dangerous animal or something like that. The pit bull was taken from the residence. Word has it that the neighbors in that community were already fed-up with pit bulls before the incident occurred.
Hey,we mite have a law here soon to help with this problem :

“Dog-attack measure passes full Senate

Owners of dogs that attack people could be subject to negligent homicide charges under legislation that passed the full Senate Tuesday.
House Bill 155 would allow prosecutors to pursue the charge, which means dog owners could be sentenced to up to five years in prison and fined up to $5,000.”

It should be 10 and 10 to match the anti dog fighting law!
Prayers Up for that little one...
