All tTerriers, by the nature of their breeding, are fearless warriors...but before we start blaming all pitbulls lets remember that they are terriers too and have also paid the supreme sacrifice time and again for their human companions.

The owner(s) of the rabid pitbulls should be killed.

Understood. It’s just the thought of a tiny dog (David) taking on two bigger dogs (Goliath) to protect and save his friends, the five children that is so touching. BTW, sadly, Frasier’s dog Eddie (another Jack Russell) died - this is a good description of my (and most likely many dogs). Hero hasn't run off and he has not killed a neighbors cat, yet. He loves chasing bunnies of which there are many in my neighborhood.

“His trainer, Mathilde Halberg, told America’s People magazine: “He was 16-and-a-half years old, and he just had an incredible charisma and was such a free spirit. I saved him from the dog pound. His owners called me as a last resort. He was extremely mischievous, always escaping, chewing up things and running off. Once he killed a neighbour’s cat and chased some horses, that was him.”

The main problem with pit bulls is pit bull owners, not the pit bulls.

There were about 200+ stories about this incident worldwide. I picked this version because of the following paragraph:

“Local officials say it’s also a story about the people who trained the pit bulls to kill and who may have fed the animals methamphetamines to make them even more deadly.”

I’m pretty sure we are all thinking the same thing about “the people” if true.
