not really
i was out building a little fence when i saw their pit run off on them at least 3 or 4 times. they have to do magic to corral the dog back every time. they need to just put the fucking dog inside. it should never be out front. he does this at least once a week
a few minutes later, i hear shrieking. at first i assume it's just kids yelling, but the shrieks grow more and more hysterical. so i go out to examine.
fucking pit has a yorkie by the neck, full clench. i know it won't do anything but i smashed the pit with my drill. the whole time i'm thinking i should have doubled back for the bucket of water, so i did.
so i drench the fucking pit and he releases, the owners have him tackled, and this poor lady who was just walking her yorkie down the street is in absolute shock. dog was limp and bleeding. pit probably snapped its neck. blood loss wasn't too major so i'm yelling at this lady to put pressure on the wound just in case the dog still has a chance.
a neighbor happened to be driving up and offered to bring the lady and her dog to the emergency vet which is luckily only a half mile up the road.
my wife was out there sobbing because she imagined what could have happened if the dog grabbed our daughter the same way. told the neighbors she was gonna call the cops if they didn't. an old lady threw a leash in the direction of my wife, i nearly punched that old lady out. they kept swearing their dog was a nice and gentle dog. my other neighbor just shut them the fuck up and said their gentle dog just murdered another dog.
animal control got there 10 minutes later. the poor yorkie was dead. the pit is gonna have to be put down. the neighbors are gonna probably face some pretty nasty criminal charges as well as getting the fuck sued out of them.
i'll be happy to go to court for either a criminal case or a civil one and throw those pit owners right the fuck under the bus. it may be a nice dog and probably is but the owners were negligent and now that poor lady has a dead dog and will be traumatized for life. fuck them
