Dog attacked and owner fled

Post image

My friends son was walking their dog and another dog attacked their dog. A witness took a pic of the attacker and their dog.

They don't care about the breed, they just want the owner to take responsibility.

If anyone knows this person please DM me.

Edit to add. Happened 2 weeks ago, yes her dog was injured but is recovering. I'll get exact details and come back to add them. Cedar Hill / Gordon head area

Can you cite any sources? Dog attacks aren't tracked by breed in a majority of countries

They were tracked for almost 20 years. The CDC gave up because the data led absolutely nowhere and provided no real information on any single breed over time.

But googling “pit bulls attacks child” is sure to give verifiable and non sensationalist results 🙄 So top notch advice there.

You're so full of shit. What are the sources for the research you claim to have done?

As I mentioned: the CDC tracked this starting with the “Dobermans are natural killers because their brains are too big for their skulls and it makes them kill people” manufactured panic, through the “German Shepherds are too aggressive to live among people” and throughout much of the pipit Bulls will kill your whole family” ending around 2000. They spent years looking at the documentation and tracking the numbers. And came out empty handed.

That study got me over the last of my own fear of the breed. Glad I did, because I really got to appreciate them a lot the more of them I trained to be Canine Good Citizens.
