Pit bull disfigures a greyhound at Sea Point Promenade

[nulkoel]

The big story in this is that these dogs are dangerous and they shouldn’t be in public places, or be muzzled.

but

Rosie went closer to the pit bull to greet. The pit bull was on the lead, my dog went to it to say hello.

That is on you, Harriet.

this is not the pornstar suicide thread

Yep it's the greyhound suicide thread. If she wasn't coming maybe he wouldn't have tried to kill himself...

Any mention of white people in the article?

If the pitt bull was on a lead and the owner had full control, then this woman was being stupid. You are an idiot if you let your dog close to these creatures and their delusional masters.

Evidently, the owner did not have full control over the pibble.

 

[RedViking]

In this case, it's the greyhound owners fault. You do not take another dog to go "greet" a pitbull. That's just asking for trouble. I had 2 pitbulls and believe me, they regard themselves as "protectors", and will attack at any time it feels that something is a threat to you or itself.

Agree. Pitt owners have no control over their creatures. She was an idiot for letting her dog close to those things. 100% her fault.

I am referring to, the owner didn't let go of the lead and the dog didn't drag the owner away. Once close to the creatures is a different story. I agree.

No comment on her surname? I'm disappointed...

Harriet Came again and again and again.

Yeah a fully grown and healthy pitbull can chew through a bus's tryres and metal, give it a day.

I heard there's actually a danger they don't kak out the valve covers and it causes constipation. Any truth to this?

Its owners 99% of the time, you never took the time to properly train them from birth to not attack other dogs..So many people want dogs but they are not "dog people" leaving the dog to its own devices after it grows up, especially with a pitbull is asking for trouble.

Ban greyhounds!

 

[UB40]

Could the @SPCA please ban pit bulls? Not existing ones but ban them from breeding, in 15 years time there will be no more pit bulls.

I have to agree.
Madness to let one's dog run loose in a busy area like that
I would guess that Rosie came within the length of the leash and the pit simply grabbed her; unreasonable to say the owner had no control.

“It was upsetting, so I putmy dog in the car and we went to an animal hospital in Kenilworth,”she said.

By all accounts, Kenilworth costs megabucks just to cross the threshold.
