Zaldana was just steps from the floral shop she's worked at for 25 years when she was attacked.

A 70 year old lady walking outside of where she trimmed flowers for 25 years should not be expected to be armed. She shouldn't expect to have her scalp ripped off either. Let the pit lovers skew somehow this as usual.

“Let the pit lovers skew somehow this as usual.”

Nothing to skew. It’s there in the article. Human error - as usual. Why was the gate open?? Where were the owners and why leave two dogs who had a tendency to be this aggressive in a situation where this would happen?? Powerful dogs HAVE to be trained and handled properly. That applies to ANY large breed - but esp. to one which has been so exploited by cruelty and harsh treatment. If people aren’t prepared to take on the responsibility of a powerful dog, they shouldn’t take the plunge. It’s not the dog.

Who told you that and why did you believe them?

If you are too old to run and too weak to fight you should be armed 24/7. In the shower, at the dinner table, definitely when out in public.

That's why Granny always wore a frilly apron. The front pocket was large and generous enough for a snubbie, which was ready at hand whenever she needed it.

Best regards,
