I would bet this two year old tormented the crap out of this dog. Two year olds are notorious for naughty behavior. They typically don't understand how to be "nice" to a pet. They'll pull their tail, ears and worse. You have to teach them to respect animals and be loving towards them. I don't believe that a "pet" would act out to this EXTREME unless EXTREMELY PROVOKED. Look at all this dog was through, STABBING, TASER GUN etc.. This made the dog more nuts.

This is NOT a vicious breed.

There is something wrong in THAT household.

#21 - I agree with you!

They are sweet dogs when raised with love. There was NO NEED for THIS to happen. Those parents shouldn't be allowed to have pets.

I have two akita lab mixes - brothers. When they were pups, they had some dominance issues they had to work out. The dog fights were frightening.

We emptied pepper spray into their faces and broke chairs over their heads. They didn't even notice.

We stopped one fight by breaking a door on them.

They understood that humans are dominant, so we have never had that problem. But each dog thought he should be over the other. We ended up deciding on the top dog ourselves, and enforced it. The fights stopped as soon as we did.

They haven't fought in years now - just big sweet puppydogs.

He had the child by the head so that probably ruled out a head shot. I would imagine they were shooting him in places that wouldn't hit the baby.

Fixed it for you.

Of course the government should'nt decide for them. But if they can't raise a dog they're not going to be able to raise a child.

Hopefully the child will go nuts on THEM not somebody else.

I agree - BOTH should be off limits to these "parents".

What happened here is EXTREME. This is NOT vicious breed.

If I were this animal and provoked by a kid, stabbed, tasered etc. I'd be tough to put down too. This just mad him more crazy and defensive. Anyone would lash out to the degree they are endangered - it's normal for a dog too. As I said before - something is VERY wrong in that household.

Kinda reminds me of the old joke...

Q. What's the difference between the Dept. of Children and Families and a Pit Bull?

A. You can get your child back from the Pit Bull.

I will garondamntee you that I could have turned that dog off, in less than a second, with a .22 short!
There is no way in hell that you can take a city boy, or a city girl, who has never fired a shot, before they became a cop, and make them understand killing, when it has to be done right, the first time, right away.
I have never liked killing, but, I've had to do a lot of it, and other things that I never liked, as well. You just have to do the unpleasant, but neccessary, stuff, with the same dedication you apply to the things you enjoy.
"Sign a statement"? Hey, after I clean my gun!

Re your post #6, it does get tiresome, doesn't it? It almost makes you want to draw up a definition of the two and send it to every newspaper in America. Somehow I don't think even that would work, though. Determined ignorance trumps all.

"The officers used 17 shots because the dog stayed alive that long."

Whatever officer was doing the shooting should be fired.  This should have taken one bullet....two max.

Frankly, I have trouble believing this story.

a 9 mm will put any dog down if shot between the eyes from the front or base of the skull from the back.

I'm not a big fan of the 9 mm myself but you are right, with proper shot placement it's a pretty deadly round. Good enough for Mitch Rapp.

The dog could have easily killed the child...wonder why he didn't...

Moral restraint?

There is such a thing as exotic ammo [completely against Geneva conventions, but law enforcement is not covered by these]. These are expensive, and take training, but some bullets can deliver mechanical, explosive, thermal and chemical osmotic shocks from the same bullet. The stopping power of such a projectile is obviously enhanced. The wound for a while would spit caustic flames, and one could light a cigarette from it.
