Yes. But they are terrible for movies.

How long would Cujo be if the family was armed?

"I was on the ground and my friend was screaming 'help' and then a man came down the street and shot a gun and then the dogs start running down the street."

I hope he has a CCW.............

“I’m thankful to the guy that shot the gun or it would have been a bigger tragedy than what it is and today would be a sad day.............................................. Yeah, and he’ll probably get a 2 yr sentence for discharging a gun inside the town limits.

I have been told, repeatedly, that attacks like this are rare.

1) Large and or aggressive breed of dog? Check.
2) Running loose, often >1 running loose? Check.
3) Previous reports of animals aggression and/or running loose? No data.
4) Owner with unrealistic expectation of gentleness and docility from dogs (often despite #3 above)? Check.

I wish the law were stronger towards going after people who allow this sort of thing to happen. The owner of the dogs should be arrested, tried, imprisoned; and then sued into oblivion.

Whoever the man was that came to help (with a gun) is a hero in my book. He probably saved those kids lives. You read about so many people not “wanting to get involved” and will just stand there and watch. Sort of refreshing to read about someone who didn’t just stand there (IMHO). Just a thought.

Wow, you mean pit bulls didn’t stop attacking people just because Chet99 got banned? I’m shocked.

I got the crap bit out of me by a greyhound when I was a kid.

My dad killed it with my bat.

The locals worked things out between my dad and the dog owner without a lawsuit.
