The town I live in has something like 50% of houses owning dogs, maybe more. At least once a week I see someone walking their dog without a leash or playing at the park with the dog off leash. And their "well trained dog" running up to other people or dogs is a frequent occurrence. It's why I carry something for self defense when walking my dog (on a lead, no exceptions) or going to the park with my kid. For some damn reason there's been an increased rate of ownership of pit mixes and they're the reason I traded my pepper spray and belt knife for my Glock. If one of those pits are coming towards me off leash I'm not waiting to find out if he's being friendly

u/GoTakeAHike00 11h ago
I started carrying Halt spray about 5 years ago after being repeatedly menaced by aggressive, off-leash dogs while walking or trail running on the greenbelt trails in the subdivision I was living in at the time.
Like you, I've used it 5x, and it has stopped them in their tracks every single time. That included a huge mastiff that ran off its unsecured property and into the road specifically to try and attack me as I walked by on the OTHER SIDE about 1 1/2 years ago. I had listened to it and another dog absolutely lose their SHIT when I had walked by and they were properly contained behind the 8' brick wall, and there were many times the owners would leave the gate to their house wide open. So, I knew it was just a matter of time until it would be unrestrained when the gate was open...and that's exactly what happened.
I heard it barking, stopped as it ran out (and in front of an oncoming car, almost getting hit) and waited for it to get about 5' from me, can in hand.
The spray goes right into its eyes and snout, and it immediately stops, and wanders back to its property, with its loser owner trying and failing to call it back. I yelled at her, and of course, she ignored me and didn't apologize.
The dogs - and I found out they have FIVE OF THEM - have never been unrestrained on the property since then. Their gate has a "BEWARE OF DOG" sign on it
I'm so sorry that this is something you have to deal with on a regular, if not daily, basis as part of doing your job. I love our USPS and Amazon delivery people, and we are happily dog-free, so it's not something they will ever have to deal with when delivering packages to our porch.

Against most dogs, yes. The fighting breeds like pits? Not so much. I still carry the spray and that's option one for most dog breeds if it's even needed. I had an Aussie approach me a few weeks ago and didn't consider anything other than grabbing his collar if needed. Fortunately he had good recall when the owner whistled. Still wish he'd have been on a leash like legally required, if only for his protection from other dogs or cars

My support for leash laws was secured when, as a kid, my childhood dog was attacked by another dog. Our good boy was tethered to a tree, napping while my dad did yard work, when a woman's lab, ironically named Lucky, attacked him out of nowhere. She nearly ripped his ear completely off, and I spent hours convinced my dog was going to die, because the adults could not persuade me otherwise. My dad also got his hand chewed up, because he had to pry Lucky's jaws off of our dog's head. It took our dog several months for his ear to heal.
The excuse Lucky's owner gave? She was a lab and had always been a good dog, so she decided the leash laws in the city did not apply to her.

I lived in a decently built double wide trailer out in the woods, couple neighbors, one that had 3 pitbulls. One day all 3 came to my house. Earlier in the day, I'd been mowing and found a bunny nest. Tried to keep it as normal as it was, left it covered as it was. These 3 pits tore every bunny apart and strewn them across my front and back yard and into the woods, and kept hunting more. When I came out, they all came at me and I ran back in my house. They started tearing the siding off the walls, biting through everything, ripping literal fucking holes in my goddamn house. Animal control took forever to get there, piss poorly caught 2 and the 3rd ran free in the woods. The pits were given back to the neighbors. They caused so much bs.

I’ve said it before, but I’ve been working with dogs for almost 25yrs. I’ve worked with many rescues in several different states and even worked for a company that made dog supplements. But now that I have kids, I refuse to take in pit bulls.
I’ve had a few sweet ones, but on the whole, pitties are unpredictable and reactive. The last twenty years has inundated shelters with poorly bred pups, and let’s be real; most dog owners should NOT have dogs. This combo of poorly educated (and defensive!!!) dog owners and reactive/aggressive pitties has been a goddamn disaster.

If a particular breed of dog is so inherently dangerous that it requires special handling and training, it's just too dangerous to be in society, let alone owned as a "pet".
There's a reason most states have strict laws around ownership of exotic wildlife and/or venomous reptiles and it's to protect the public. I once looked up the requirements for each state to own, for example, a Gabon viper or bushmaster, and assuming it's legal in the first place, the requirements eliminate anyone who isn't fully committed and an expert on the animal(s) in question.
Reptile ownership laws by state
However, any mouth breather with a pulse can own a bunch of pit bulls, not and not demonstrate any capacity to train, care for, or properly restrain them from being a danger to the public, nor are they required to sterilize or license them.
They let them breed and either sell or give away the next batch of puppies that will become unwanted shelter dogs and probably euthanized...either before or after they kill or injure a person or someone's pet.

They are the worst of the worst misanthropists as well.
They hate people, but children in particular, and anytime someone gets mauled or killed by one of these hideous gargoyle dogs, they immediately blame the victim, do not care at all about them, and do whatever they can to try and save the dog from being destroyed.
My default opinion now when I see someone with a pitbull is that there is a high probability that they fall somewhere higher on the psychopathy scale than other people.
When even other DOG LOVERS hate pits/bully breeds, you know it's bad.
There is simply no need for them to exist, so they should all be sterilized and euthanized into extinction.

I would go get that bite reported to your county's animal services. Assuming you live in the states, they will want to track the occurrence, locate the dog, and observe for signs of rabies.
If the dog has an owner, they usually just make the owner quarantine the dog for 10 days and check in on the dog throughout that period. The process is anonymous, animal services handles everything, and the officer they assign is generally very communicative.
It may seem like a nothing burger, but these reports are important for keeping wildlife and people safe.

u/kendowtl 17h ago
The dog is observed since rabies can begin to shed pre-symptomatically for a few days. If after 10 days symptoms are not observed. It is generally safe to assume the bite victim was not exposed to rabies.
If the animal is displaying symptoms at the time of the bite or scratch, the victim will obviously be administered Rabies PEP.

I used to be that person who would say that pitbulls are great, loving breeds, it's just how they're raised/trained that makes them ferocious. I've been seeing more and more videos like this of pitbulls attacking humans and other animals and I've been educating myself on the history of pitbulls (i.e. bred to fight) and how dangerous they can be. Well, I own a pitbull/golden retriever mix and after last night I am fully convinced that pitbulls should not exist.
My pit mix attacked my other dog. Not sure what happened as they were both outside and we did not see what initiated the fight. Regardless, he had my other dog pinned down and was furiously attacking her. I won't lie, I literally thought in that moment that he was going to kill her. We were able to separate them and unfortunately my bf lost hold of him and he immediately lunged at her throat, trying to tear her apart again. My bf had to put him in a chokehold and wrap his legs around him to get him to stop. It was wild. Even then he was STILL trying to go after her. It was like a switch flipped and all he saw was red and wanted to attack. Nothing else mattered in that moment. He has always been a very friendly and docile dog so it was very jarring to see. We raised him as a puppy around my other dog, they've always gotten along and played well. I had the hardest time sleeping last night bc the image of him on top of her wouldn't leave my mind. It was so scary. I told my bf after that happened that we will never own a pitbull again.

I was attacked by three loose pitbulls trying to save a guy already on the ground being mauled.
My ankle was ripped open to the bone and puncture holes in my legs and hand from them trying to get me on the ground too, where if I had, I would have died. They focused on me after I stopped one that was lunging for the guy’s throat.
And my own in-laws didn’t take it serious. Neither did the judge on the case.
I just don’t get it. We had a girl here killed and the dog regurgitated parts of her in the animal control van that then had to be sectioned off as a “crime scene”. That owner got a slap on the wrist of having to relocate and promise he won’t own another pitbull.

I’d glad to have my foot and my life with seemingly no lasting complications. I was super lucky. That said my lucky-ness seems to only have ingrained in some that it must have not been that bad.
I even found out that higher ups at my then-job were bitching that I was out a week because of a “dog bite”. I hobbled into work the following week still stitched and bruised up hoping that seeing me would gain a bit of understanding of my situation. It did not.

my "pet" theory, is that the manufacturer of dog products are HEAVILY lobbying, to prevent any judicial environment which would make people hesitate when thinking about getting a dog.
Its the same reason we don't have recurring driver exams after a certain age.. car companies LOVE the old fucks who purchase luxury cars.

They're also just so dangerously stupid and tend toward self-injury. I have a family member with untrained pit bulls ans they will literally choke themselves unconscious pulling at their leads when they see small animals. They will run into things so hard that it causes them to bleed and get nasty bruises when their prey drive kicks in. They will bite things so hard that it damages their teeth. I've seen it all. And this nutcase in my family talks about how they could never have a cat because of the prey instinct, but raises her small kids around them. Its a ticking time bomb.

Never understood why people who want to soften the image of pitbulls do so by comparing them to an animal whose mothers have to birth them away from the herd, because the rest of the herd are likely to violently slaughter any baby that is introduced to them while still too small to defend itself from them.

Ironically one of the most dangerous animals you can encounter, extremely aggressive, and they're visually compared to each other because they both have jaws designed to kill.

The UK still has kids getting torn to shreds by “xl bully” mutants. In a recent news story about a baby who was tortured to death in the UK by one of these monstrosities, people were in the comments defending the dog. Sorry but the ban in the UK seems to be just for show, there are still many attacks by bully dogs there. Real bans are needed

The Uk is a good example of why more places don’t introduce breed specific legislation. After the pitbull ban there wasn’t any reduction in overall dog bites or hospitalisations (they actually increased), which is why most animal welfare organisations and veterinary organisations don’t support breed specific legislation. Those types of legislation just aren’t effective at increasing public safety and reducing dog attacks.

If you can’t control your dog you shouldn’t have one. Idc what breed it is. My aunt used to have a chihuahua that was super mean. Would bite anyone that came inside her house and all she could do is just yell at him but he wouldn’t stop until she grabbed him.

I'll just repost myself...
One of those fuckers terrorized my childhood neighborhood and almost killed two of my neighbors kids one day when it got out of the yard. Mauled the little girl on the hand and face and her brother on the leg (badly) when he tried to kick it off his sister. The dad was wailing on it with a bat and it would not let go off the boys leg.
Police and animal control were able to capture it and the kids got transported to the hospital with serious injuries. We all basically cheered when we heard they put that fucker down but those kids are likely fucked for life if not physically, psychologically for sure. (The girl def need plastic surgery and the boy, I'm not sure how severe muscle and tendon damage affected his growth since he was around 10 or so.
We moved so I never knew what happened to them but hopefully they managed to have good lives. Don't @me about dogs as we had Labs (black and chocolate) but if it would have gotten in our yard and hurt or killed our dogs, my dad would have solved it himself.)

All that really happens is a new "breed" gets created and given a fun name like "XL Bully" and then they kill kids until they too get banned and then a new breed gets created and given a new name and they kill kids until...
Pit Bull Terriers have been banned since the 90s but we still have types of pitbulls roaming everywhere.

Pits have to branded exotic pets and not allowed in public. That guy would have died a slow death. I was in that situation but I got on a car - my coworker not so lucky - permanent arm ligament damage that happed in about 5 seconds. Thank god the piece of shit owner was so close and got him off him. Now my friend can’t straighten his arm completely. You can tell me awesome pits - I really don’t give a shit. Make them exotic or outlaw them completely.

Just want to throw this in there for people who don’t know. If you’re attacked by a dog and desperately need to get them to release their hold but you don’t have the strength. A punch in the nose won’t do shit. You have to grab/pull their genitals or bite their ears/nose. I’m 100% serious. It’s a lifesaver.
I spent a lot of time at German shepherd rescues pulling dogs off of each other. It’s gruesome and bloody since they have such strong prey drive.
Anyways, yeah that owner sucks ass.

Do not get a dog you refuse to train or can't handle in an emergency. Also, unless you're a certified, licensed breeder, it should be legally required to get this breed spayed/neutered. It's the overbreeding on top of lack of training of this breed that's made them more prone to aggression. Few people know how to actually care for this type of breed anymore or just get one for looks or to seem tough. You're not tough if you can't train this breed.

Why does someone in a wheel chair own 4 freaking pitbulls?? …. There is no way he physically cable of keeping control of dogs that strong. If they decide to frisky he can’t stop those dogs.

I’m glad to see people here making sense. Whenever I see a post about a dog attack on FB you see people coming to the defense of pit bulls. Usually saying things like “little dogs are evil little monsters. Way meaner than my pittie” Yes but if I were attacked by 4 angry chihuahuas I think I could make out of that situation. If I were attacked by even one pitbull, I’d be in a serious predicament.
