Golden retriever kills Thai owner
Jun 12, 2011
Bangkok - A golden retriever mauled its Thai master to death after allegedly enduring years of abuse, media reports said Sunday.
Mana Tesrit, 51, died in hospital Saturday after being savaged by his 3-year-old dog at his home in Sattahip district of Chonburi province, 120 kilometres east of Bangkok, The Nation newspaper reported.
Mana’s wife Sompong Rodkhlam told police that the dog, named Peter, may have attacked her husband because he had kicked and abused it since it was a puppy.
Sompong was out of the house at the time of the attack, which was witnessed by neighbours.
Dead dog...

Cherries everywhere.

His master was buried in Luxembourg.
They are very prone to hypothyroidism, the primary symptom of which is “sudden aggression”.
Tick borne diseases can also do it.
People let their children hug the family dog around the neck and ride on their backs.
The stupidity is incredible.

[although I did once, in ignorance, get one of my girl snakes awfully giggly by stroking her back]
o.O
You know my dogs and my heart and this is for you. :)
Never heard anymore about it or what happened with the Pom.
You know, because it wasn’t a Pit, so it didn’t matter.
Bull Terrier!
If I was not devoted to Dobermanns, I would have Bullies!
:)
One atypical case only means there are exceptions. Pits are a small portion of the dogs out there, and account for a hugely disproportionate number of serious dog maulings.
Meh back at ya.
You will no doubt appreciate this article on Dobermanns.

Shirley, you jest.
There are a crap load of Pits in America.
In my area, not really a “Pit zone”, I see 4 times as many Pits as other breeds.

So Meh³
>> A lot of freepers just get hysterical from being ignurnt
Seriously?
I’ll happily put a tire iron through the skull of pit bull that looks at me the wrong way.
The american pit bull has turned out to be shit breed.
As a practical matter, how do you tell the difference between a Bull Terrier and a Pit Bull?
Give me one of the children of one of these pit bull haters during the child’s formative years, and I’ll turn him into a stone-cold murdering savage. Well, I wouldn’t, but I could. So maybe we should put down all that guy’s children? That’s their argument.
They look nothing alike, for starters.
:D
Bull Terriers are a Dolichocephalic breed, having a long head, which is described as either ovoid or ‘egg shaped’.
“Pit Bulls” [no such official “breed”, really] are Brachycephalic and their skull is relatively broad and short.
(typically with the breadth at least 80% of the length)
The only vague similarity is the short, stocky body.
“Pit Bulls” were really created mixtures of Staffordshire Terriers [American or English] combined with other breeds.
People who put sweaters on dogs deserve what they get.
