Four dogs attacked Mike so which one do you want to put down?

He forgot the "S" - typo!

I have a novel idea... if dogs chomp up anyone, put down the dogs and their owner.

 

 If that doesn't eliminate the problem, nothing will.

Now we need a "vicious Pitbull returns wallet found in taxi" story from the pitbulls are the "best " posters.

All of them, and if possible the owner as well. 

 

If the owner cannot be put down, then bankrupt him and give all the proceeds to the victim.

Congratulations of the most stupid response so far.

Have they just used a random photo here? Because this dog doesn't even remotely resemble a PitBull. Looks like your average manky Thai soi dog.

 

 

Here's my Pitbull (a Red Nose American PitBull Terrier) for comparison. And yes, he's great with people. ????

 

Ha ha. It's about time you learned the lesson of countless others that pit bulls are unpredictable; every pit bull owner reckons their dog is friendly.

 

A bit like Thai women - but mine is different!

get rid of pit bulls & soi dogs .....  they are both pests and dangerous ....  what silly society in this day and age that doesn't mind a few soi dog attacks on kids and the elderly ... and doesn't mind owners of pit bulls leaving gates open so they can attack grannies and kids.  

 

Their illogical thinking is absolutely pathetic to say the least ....    why the hell don't they do something to prevent these dog attacks ???

All four. Clean up the streets. Protect humans.

I know this wouldn’t happen... but this idea places into perspective the true realities of owning a dog. 

 

Dog owners put up to 1 million baht in some form of Escrow.

 

IF the dog attacks someone, that escrow money goes straight to the victim.

 

How many people would be confident to put 1m aside when owning a Pitbull ???

 

 

 

 

Great point. Likely 99.8% of the defenders of this questionably suitable breed for a home, would switch to other less vicious dogs. Very, very few would gamble that kind of money on how "truly lovely" their dog is.

That's what these parents thought too.

 

"The family dogs who mauled two Tennessee toddlers to death Wednesday and left their mother with severe injuries had never been aggressive, a friend told Fox News Digital."

"Kirstie Jane Bennard, 30, was seriously wounded when she tried to pull the family's two pit bulls off 5-month-old Hollace Dean and 2-year-old Lilly Jane at their home in rural Shelby County outside Memphis."

 

"I can promise you those children were her world, and if there was any inkling of danger, she would have never had those dogs near her kids," the shattered mom's best friend, Kelsey Canfield, told Fox News Digital. "Those children were everything to them, and they just have a really long journey ahead."

 

"The family had the pets, Cheech and Mia, for more than eight years without a violent incident, Canfield said."

It's a bad idea to put such young children near ANY dog. Toddlers will poke the dog's eyes, pull the dog's ears or balls, scream, shriek, cry etc. all of which are extremely irritating for ANY dog. 

 

Here's a labrador doing the same thing.

Agreed... young children should be supervised at all times anyway... Whether a dog is present or not. And off course, extra caution should be taken whenever near an animal... even a cat could scratch an infants eyes...  

 

BUT.. in your argument you have made the fundamental flaw of providing a singular story to argue against aggregate stats.

There are attacks on infants and adults by plenty of other breeds, yet attacks by PitBull type breeds by far exceeds them all. 

In the US PitBull breeds are responsible for a staggering 65% of all deaths from dog attacks. 

The statistics alone are purely damning - this cannot be diminished by using alternative examples.

True..... but then there is the fact that PitBull type breeds attack more and kill more people than any other breed by a long shot... 

 

The main article article is somewhat inflammatory... other articles quote ‘PitBull mixes’... which suggests they were not pure-bred Bull Terrier breads. 

 

The implication is still ‘PitBull’ breed, mix or otherwise, its yet another attack damning for the reputation of the breed.... 

Its like mass gun shootings in the USA...  everyone on the ‘outside’ just thinks... 'Oh, no, again... its madness that this is allowed to continue’....   and the pro-gun folk blame anything but the fact so many people have guns !!...  then there is a shooting in the UK and the pro-gun people try and argue that because it happens elsewhere banning guns won’t reduce the degree of mass shootings in the US...  utter madness...

 

And here... we have the arguement... they may not have been 100% PitBull bred and we don’t know what the story is or how they were treated.....  The reality is, this wasn’t a Collie, Labrador or Poodle that attacked... it was yet another PitBull exacting a savage facial attack on an old lady who’s only mistake was walking down the road past a partially open gate....  

 

Nope... There is no polishing this.... perhaps the news is bias against PitBulls - Why is that ?... perhaps we who comment negatively are all Bias against PitBulls, but why is that ?...   The simple answer is that its because PitBull type breeds attack and kill more than any other domesticated animal to such a degree to suggest that such an animal may never truly be domesticated....  for the same reason pets such as Serval Cats should never be kept as pets...

Have read your link above which states that this is the 5th attack by these same dogs . Just as incredible was the local police chief who said that the owners must move the dogs far away from the village . So other people will have the problem ? 

Pit Bull dogs or mixes are not alone at attacking people . Most soi dogs can be menacing when in a pack . Even a small bite from a small dog means you should have treatment for rabies . That is not cheap .  It is beyond comprehension , why Thailand does not have control on both dog ownership and stray dogs .

I don't believe the stats. As in this story, many attacks are ascribed to "PitBulls" (which isn't even a breed) when the dog isn't actually proven to be a "PitBull" at all. The dog in this story looks like a soi dog. A mutt. A mongrel. Yet look at all the vitriol the story has induced against "PitBulls". 

 

Lies, damn lies, and statistics.

 

I'm guessing all these dogs below would be called "PitBulls". At least they resemble one, unlike the cur in the OP.
