Relative savagely attacked by Pit Bull - owner wasn't in time to lock him up

[webfact]

Daily News caption: He's just protecting the house!

 

Rescue services were called to a house in Muang district of Samut Prakan after a 35 year old woman was savaged by a Pit Bull terrier.

 

The injured woman was visiting her brother and his wife at their house. 

 

She entered the property and was sitting at a table in the garden when the Pit Bull attacked her.

 

The owner hadn't yet had time to put the family pet in a cage.

 

The wife of the house owner said that the Pit Bull was a quiet dog but would attack anyone who entered the property.

 

Picture: Daily News

 

He was "protective" of the house and would attack if the owners weren't around.

 

The relative had arrived and her husband had not yet secured "Titan".

 

She said it was fortunate that they heard her sister-in-law's anguished screams and rescued her in time and called off the family pet.  

 

Even so she had multiple injuries to right leg, arm and face and was taken to hospital in a serious condition after a rescue foundation gave first aid at the scene. 

 

Titan is just over a year old, reported Daily News.

I would rather euthanize Titan's owners.

Waiting for all Thai apologists to come share their experience in moo ban where all soi dogs exchange wais with them when they pass them.

The dog behaved as most dogs would in Thailand. They're just burglar alarms and if anything the 'relative' would have known about this dog. So why did she enter the property knowing the dog was there? ????

She hadn’t entered the house, she was sat in the garden waiting. 
 

The owner hadn’t restrained their dangerous dog…. 
…. Could have been a kid retrieving a ball.

 

Why did the sister go into her brothers garden ??? She probably had before only this time a psycho dog was there.

A family pet, but it needs to be locked away in a cage ???  
…. That’s no pet, it’s a uncontrollable weapon. 

[Jeffr2]

The owner should be jailed just like he did the attack himself.  Too many want dogs like this to show how strong they are.  Sadly, very few know how to properly handle them.  Very few.

Wait until she wants compensation, then the owners say it  not their dog,  it belongs to Budda

Perhaps she'd believed the "it's OK he doesn't bite" line...............????

Not the mutt's fault.  Purely the owners.

Yeah I came across that once in a NE restaurant, owners dog walking around, I asked if it bite....No No No, mai gut. I patted the <deleted>n thing and it snapped at me. I said to the people....I thought you just said the <deleted>n thing didn't bite. They replied the dog doesn't like people patting his head. Oh well, silly me, I should have realized it was a Thai Buddhist dog.

Here's my Pit Bull. Great 'ratter'.

A lovely looking dog... 

 

But.. would he ‘chew a child's face off’ if he managed to slip though the fence into the street ??

If a kid jumped into your garden to retrieve a ball etc... 

 

Answers: He can’t get out, he’s lovely with kids etc etc.. are all BS... These dogs are bread to attack, maim and kill things...   its instinct above anything else.

 

While these beautiful creatures are lovely, loyal pets most of the time...  there’s ’that time’... and if as a dog owner your animal has never bitten you or anyone else, thats quite incredible.

This.....    IF society accepts that these dogs are acceptable, then owners must be trained, licensed and ultimately held accountable for ‘anything’ the dog does. I know this is more difficult in Thailand, however, there are so many many dog attacks here...  all due to careless owners or stupid people who feed and attract strays.

I had a friend who owned a pit bull.  Huge dog.  Called him just a baby all the time.  Until he wasn't.  He attacked his wife, luckily she wasn't hurt badly, but from then, the poor thing was locked up in a cage 24x7.  What a terrible way to treat an animal like that.

But we still have victim blamers who will blame the injured party for entering her brothers garden when she knew that there is a dog present....  or did she know ?

 

Its all irrelevant whether the sister knew that a dog was present, this could have been a postman, delivery guy, a kid getting a ball etc etc....  A dog who can attack so readily is dangerous to everyone in the neighbourhood. 

 

The owners should be penalised of course, its is their fault that the dog was either poorly trained, or trained to attack....  but sadly, that dog will attack again if it's not dealt with.

Her family, and perhaps the dog is usually locked up.....

 

If folk want to own these dogs, then they must be held responsible for the way they have been trained and deal with any repercussions from their actions...

 

I have a big dog that people fear at my gate, but that's as far as it goes, great dogs them Golden Retrievers....????

No. I have 3 children. The girl on the left isn't mine. But over the years they've had their friends around and never have I or my wife had concerns for their safety. Just cuz it's a Pit Bull doesn't mean it's aggressive.

The first person ever to receive a  'face transplant' was a French woman. and the dog that caused the injury was her own, yes you guessed it, Golden Labrador.

 

Quote

Isabelle Dinoire became the first-ever person to have a face transplant. In a rare interview, she describes how she copes with the stares, and her yearning to meet the family of the woman whose face became her own.

 

[Mac Mickmanus]

They have a dog that is known to be protective an attack any one who enters the property who doesn't live there .

  A person who doesn't live there entered the property . 

Didn't any of them think of the consequences ?
