A TERRITORY girl is lucky to be alive after she was mauled by a savage dog.
Seven-year-old Meg Croton and her brother Connor, 9, had been feeding their family's dog - an eight-year-old mastiff cross - in their Humpty Doo back yard when the girl was attacked by the vicious hound.
"I tripped on a rock and fell, and I think I kicked his leg," Meg recalled the attack. "And then it hurt very badly and he was on top of me and ripped on my head. "But my brother saved my life."

Not having seen this ridiculous post before I posted the one above it makes it all the more poignant.
Note, you are also a proponent of killing adult dogs.
Kiss my ass PETA boy!
I could still run it on XP but Vista choked on it and even running it in the “older software” mode didn’t work.
*I heard one idiot woman talk to her dog after it growled at child as in "Did that nasty little boy frighten my precious wecious darling warling puppie wuppikins." You can't make this stuff up.
every time you post you make my point.
Maybe the nasty little child should have been taught how to deal with dogs.
Poor little kid!!! He didn’t have a chance with that dog.
The news report refers to the dog as “timid”. I prefer the more descriptive term “Fear Biter”. Herding dogs are prone to hyper-fearfulness and such dogs bite before thinking. Their “fight or flight” instinct makes them very dangerous if they are cornered.
So many people, when choosing a pup from a litter, will gravitate to the one cringing in the corner. That pup, nine times out of ten will grow up to be a fearful adult and will be far more likely to hurt someone than would its more outgoing littermates within its lifetime.
Uh... okay, great! See you then!
Still no pics of mothers who murdered their kids?
Can’t Google that huh, PETA boy?
More than 200 women in the United States kill their children every year according to aaanet.org
New stories about parents who kill their children continue to mesmerize, shock and terrify the community each time they are reported. Although filicide (child murder) is uncommon, its a leading cause of child death in developed countries. Compared to other developed nations, the United States has the highest rate of child homicide. When a child is murdered, the perpetrators are most likely one of the childs parents. In fact, children under the age of 5 in the United States are more likely to be killed by their parents than anyone else, according to FBI crime statistics: 57%. Family friends/acquaintances accounted for 30% and other family members for 8%. Stranger homicides account for the other 5%The children who are at the greatest risk are younger than 6 months old.
There have been many studies on maternal filicide, but few for paternal killers. However, there are striking differences on the motives and methods of killing between the genders. In the United States, women commit two crimes as frequently as men. The first is shoplifting. The second is the murder of their children. Women, who commit 13% of all violent crimes, kill their children at the same rate as men. Annually, more than 200 women will take the life of their child or children.
Child Molester Statistics
“The serial killer has the same personality characteristics as the sex offender against children”
-Dr. Mace Knapp, Nevada State Prison Psychologist.
“There are 400,000 registered sex offenders in the United States, and an estimated 80 to 100,000 of them are missing. They’re supposed to be registered, but we don’t know where they are and we don’t know where they’re living.
- Ernie Allen, President of the National Center for Missing and Exploited Childrento co-anchor Hannah Storm on The Early Show
The most serious and chronic offenders often show signs of antisocial behavior as early as the preschool years.

Frankly, had ~I~ been given the choice, I’d have picked physical disfigurement to the psychological scars of sexual abuse.
But, nobody gave me any options.
The world is in a fallen state.
It will not be “right” again until Jesus returns to rule it.
Sadly, for the sins of mankind, animals too were accursed and perverted from their intended purpose.
All the arguing in the world will not change any of that.
Only Christ will.
Until then, we live on a “such brutal planet...such a living hell”.
/Alice Cooper lyrics
Boring!!
LOL
Are you purposefully looking for that 90% stuff now? HAHAHAHAHA
j/k
Yeah, I totally agree. Chains Exacerbate, not necessarily cause dysfunction.
But here we come back to full circle. WHY did these people GET an adult dog when they HAD very young children. I mean besides the obvious that they are STUPID.
“Until then, we live on a such brutal planet...such a living hell”
Tony Iomi & Lita ford playing around with a blues riff:

Yeah, I know.. irrelevant.
BEST Iron Maiden album.
No. Disagree.
Caught Somewhere in Time and Seventh Son are the TWO best. I couldn't suffer much of the stuff after Adrian Smith left either. Glad he is back now.
So understand
Don't waste your time
Always searching for those wasted years
Face up...make your stand
And realize you're living in the golden years
> “If a dog bites a koran, muzzies will riot and burn American flags.”

And Al Qaida will turn against US troops all over the world...
Is it just me... or does it really seem WAY off the sanity meeter, to have someone on an animal thread, defending animal attacks, call you, defending God’s children... PETA boy.
That would be like some fags calling ME a Homo...
It isn’t even pot meet kettle.... it’s like Pot calling the... “snow” black.
I don’t know if I should just LAUGH at it absurdity... or be very fearful of a mind which could think in such a non linear fashion.
OMG !!!!!!
OMG !!!!!!!!!!!!!!
That is horrific.
This child will NEVER be normal. Every date, every job interview, LIFE is altered and the eternal destiny as well.
How about some pics of kids that drown in the family’s pool?
I am sure a gruesome Peta dude like you has plenty of them too.
Not all dogs bite or even close, but all pools are a source of drowning so where is your outrage? Do those people need a pool?
I know what dog bite injuries look like from personal experience having been injured three separate times myself. Despite my experience with dogs, gosh darn it, I still like them (except the yappie kind like pit yorkies).
Here's a cute puppy for your enjoyment:
Here's a cute puppy for your enjoyment.
Infinite.
It is a stretch beyond the bounds of the garment we call the heavens.
It is an immeasurable gulf.
The great divide.
A child is the image of God. An animal is an animal and there is no comparison whatsoever. None.
God himself became a MAN. A Child. He did not become a dog or a cow or a rat.
I called him PETA boy.
You weak sister are too much of a coward to ping me when talking about me. Bad form but expected from a chicken $hit like you.
You have really shone on this thread little girl. This thread has defined you as a know nothing who posts her feelings like they are facts and cannot back up a single thing.
You are proof that even a retard like Obama can pass law school.
If you pass.
