The woman was walking the dog when it attacked her.

The boyfriend could not get it to stop, and had to run inside to get the girlfreind's gun to shoot the dog and stop the attack.

At least now the dog won’t have the opportunity to kill the baby.

she told officers that she had never had any issues with the dog being aggressive before and she couldn’t understand why the attack had happened

It's a Dog of Peace.

Good shooting.

Don’t know why the police have to *investigate* it.

Girlfriend has bite marks and wounds enough to go to the hospital, no doubt the dog has blood on it, the dog is now dead.

Good outcome except for the woman getting hurt.

Pitbulls can be the Antifah of the canine world, with their powerful jaws. But still, some pitbulls wouldn’t harm a flea.

I received a puncture wound from a pitbull recently myself (unprovoked, protecting my own dog during a dog walk).

Let me take a SWAG......................Pit Bull....................Am I right?...............

There is no difference between a pitbull and a lab except for culture. To suggest otherwise is skin color hatred. All Dogs Matter.

My neighbor and her dog were attacked by a pitbull that had gotten loose.

She always carries some type of anti- bear spray with her attached to her leash for easy access - and suggested I do the same.

My little dog was attacked once while he was on-leash by a pitbull that had been rescued - that was also on-leash. If I hadn’t been able to grab my small dog and place him up on a retaining wall I think the pitbull would have killed him.

Now, I always carry some type of pepper spray on my leash when I go out.

I hope the boyfriend is not a felon.

It seems all the pit bulls were laying back during the riots. They missed the attention.

FTA: ...he had shot and killed the dog after we witnessed it attack his girlfriend....

The great care that goes into writing “news” these days is so impressive.

From the article:

Police visited the woman in the hospital and she told officers that she had never had any issues with the dog being aggressive before and she couldn’t understand why the attack had happened, police said.

And that is why I'll never own a dog with pit bull DNA.

I have plenty to worry about without having to worry about a dog with a hair trigger.

"she told officers that she had never had any issues with the dog being aggressive before and she couldn’t understand why the attack had happened"

Could have been something as simple as a new perfume.

Pit bull... The canine version of muslims...
Will smile at you and then slaughter you in an instant...

She is another example of Darwin's theory...
