Can't even walk
I live in the far NE Phila, PA. It use to be a safe place to live. It was the last area of the city where You could walk down the street without being afraid.
Today I took my dog for a walk and stopped dead in my tracks when I looked up and saw a Pit Bull about 50 feet in front of me. He was hunched down like he was going to attack. I almost sh(& my pants. I slowly truned and picked up my 30 lb American Husky and prayed.
I walked as fast as I could without running until I was around the corner. Then I ran.
When I got home I was shaking so bad I almost fainted. I am almost 56 years old and am lucky I didn't have a F^&N heartattack.
I am so sick that I can't even walk my dog or my grandbabies for fear they are going to get mauled by a dog. This is not the first time this has happened. I have to pick a different route each time I walk because there are so many vicious dogs. No more.
Anyone who lives in a big city knows there is nothing you can do. If I call the police they laugh and if I call animal control they never show up.
I wish I was younger and could afford to move out of this Godforsaken place.
Just wanted to vent. I really feel like crying.

Before I comment, am I to assume the pitbull was just roaming free?0

I have mixed feelings on this topic. I'm not sure if you were scared simply because it was a pitbull and wouldn't be if it were say, a golden retriever but, I'm pro pitbull. Granted, no dog should be roaming around off leash as many people are scared of dogs in general. I feel the whole pitbull ban (which we have in Canada, not sure if you have that as well where you are) is extremely ridiculous. It's not the dogs that should be put down, but the idiotic d*uche bag owners that train them to be vicious on command.
My advice for you as this seems to be a common occurrence, is invest in some pepper spray, just a little bottle. My aunt carries one with her whenever she takes her dogs (a yorkie-poo, and a chihuahua) on walks as there are coyotes in her neighbourhood.0 -
So you assumed the animal was vicious because he was a pitbull? I know pleanty that are off leash that would never hurt another soul... now unless this dog has attacked you or you know for a fact its vicious then thats antoher thing... hating an animal because of their breed isnt fair...0

I am very pro-pitbull, but I also am totally aware that they have been bred for generations to fight other dogs. I walk my three dogs and if I were to come across a PB, I would just about have a heart attack, too. Any offleash dog makes me very nervous, but pits are powerful dogs who can do a lot of damage if they do attack my dogs. Plus two of my dogs are marshmallows and the one who is protective is 11 years old, so they'd never stand a chance if they were attacked.
Having said all that, my next door neighbor's DIL has a pit who is a wonderful dog. I love her to death. She's very sweet. But I would not have my dogs out in the yard with her. It's just common sense and any long term pit owner will tell you that you have to be cautious about DA in pits. Normally if it's going to develop, it will happen between 18 and 24 months of age.0 -

In 34 death cases in 1989 to 1990, 10 cases were caused by Nordic breeds like the Husky, Samoyed or Malamute, 10 further cases were caused by Pit Bull type (mix) dogs uncertain of positive identification. Seven deaths were caused by German Shepherds, 3 by Dobermans, 1 by a Rottweiler, and 4 by other breeds.
Just figured I would throw it out there since you have a husky...0 -

Thank you very much for this. I have been trying to get people to understand this for a while. Actually, in the 1800s Pitbulls were used as nanny dogs. They were left to watch over the children if the parents had to step out for a bit as they were very trusted, well mannered, and loving dogs.
It's the stupid owners that need to be killed. Any dog as the potential to be aggressive, it's all in the training.0 -
I don't think the breed of dog matters as much as the fact that it was unattended. Dogs out and about unleashed can be scary. I have encountered a few on my runs over the years, but the only one that actually bit me (he didn't break the skin - just got his little nasty teeth on me) was a tiny, yappy scrap of a dog about as big as my shoe.
If you meet a dog out that is unleashed, face it and use your deepest, scariest voice to yell at it. Many dogs understand the word NO when screamed.
Aside from little Mr. Yippy that got me, all of the others dogs that I have encountered on my runs turned and headed the other direction when I did this.0 -

Exactly, and it sucks when people want to be racist towards dogs and run home crying when technically their dog is just as "vicious" I mean come on I could be like those blue eyed huskies scare the carp out of me and they are mean and vicious but no I dont care, a dog is a dog and depnding on the owner is how they will act...
I hate to bash but the original poster didnt know if the dog was vicious, she assumed it. Thats like when I walk my bf's dogs and people cross the street its like really, you're afraid of her she'll lick you to death if anything...
They are the most loving and loyal dogs, and if you have never owned one, know one, or have met one please dont judge by what you hear in the news - I was bit by a golden retriver but you dont see me running around bashing them...0 -
I've got a Rottweiler, he's only 9.5 weeks old right now. But we were at the mall one day and one man with his black lab said to his son, "Those dogs, those like limbs." It took everything I had not to ream him out in front of the kid because of his complete ignorance. As well, we've met a beautiful and kind Pitbull while at Petsmart that just sat there while my dog was being his hyper puppy self. Ignorance is the root of all evil.0

I am a dog lover. I have always had a dog, many different breeds.
I know what these dogs are capable of. Last summer right outback of my house a woman my age was walking her dog when a pitbull who lives in a house out back from me, pushed open the gate and grabbed the womans dog by the neck and would not let go.
Everyone was screaming and yelling but no one would go near the thing for fear it would attack them too. The poor woman was terrified. I tried to get her come into my yard but she would not let go of her beloved dog. It was a large dog, collie and lab mix. One of the neighbors ran to the owners house and one of her kids came out and called the dog like it was nothing. Finally the dog let go and walked away. The poor woman was traumatized. The dog got over 50 stiches. The pitbulls owner never came out to see if either of them were ok.
I seen with my own eyes what these dogs can do. Just because it doesn't hurt anyone in your family, doesn't mean they are a safe breed. You will never convince me and I will always be affraid of them.0 -
I noticed that you weren't attacking pit bulls, you just simply stated that that particular time it was a pit and followed up with being afraid of someone getting mauled by a DOG and not just a pit bull. The best thing you can do is get a CPL (concealed pistol license), if that dog comes at you aggressively you put a bullet in it's head, I know, I've had to do it. Also, by having a CPL and using it for your own protection, you cannot get fined for shooting within city limits, again, I know from personal experience. I've had to shoot 3 dogs, and Akita, a German Shepherd, and a Pit Bull. I firmly believe that the actions of a dog are either the owners fault or sometimes your own. I'm not trigger happy by any means, but I believe that everyone has the right to defend themselves. Especially in your case. I wish you the best of luck.0

Just because it's a Pitbull doesn't mean it's vicious. You can train your Husky to do the exact same thing.0 -

Actually no, they wouldn't. When I was bitten by all three dogs that gave them a permanent death sentence not only with my gun but with the State of Michigan.0 -
I'm with you.........I couldn't run to keep myself or my dog safe. I understand your feelings!0

I agree with most of the posts in this thread. It's not the breed, it's the un-attended dog. I have two dogs and they are mean as hell to other dogs, therefore, they are NEVER u- attended or off leash ( I learned this the hard way). You have to educate yourself on the breed, it a very small amount of these dogs that the media makes out to be monsters. Just like a retriever that you cannot reverse a bred instinct (retrieving) or a herding dog (try and get a sheep dog not to "herd" its human brothers and sisters) I was told that with my bully I can't take out the "fighting/bull baiting" Instinct, I have to understand it, and I have the tools to use to control him.
As for the dog that scared you, carry pepper spray or water. Anything that will protect you. Drive by in your car several times and see if it is still loose, get an address, report it. If it's a dog protecting its territory it’s a bite waiting to happen the owner (if there is one) needs to be cited. Just my .02cents.0 -

Because you trained her that way. You could have just as easily trained her to be an attack dog. As with any breed.0 -

I know I'm kinda jumping in this conversation, but there's no reason to be feisty. I am an ANIMAL lover, not just dogs. We don't know the scenario that she faced when she had to shoot the dogs. Should she have let the Akita gnaw the hell out of her face? Let's say she did carry pepper spray, but the dog then attacked someone else in the same time period. If you have advice, keep it friendly and not nit pick on other people's lifestyle choices.0 -

Carrying a concealed weapon is not something that should be taken lightly. It requires constant training, a real purpose and the ability to use it in ANY situation. You have to ask yourself if your up to the task. I would consider a less permanent means. I' all for the right to bear arms, but there are other ways of dealing with a dog. Just saying.0 -

Chelley, I'm not saying she wasn't in a terrible or life threatening scenario, it's the way in which she's saying it. It's almost as if she's saying, "Hey, screw any other form of protection, let's just shoot the dogs."0 -

Then what? Let it attack another person, or god forbid a child? Or do you think the aggressive dog would have a change of heart and decide not to try and attack a person ever again? Think about it a little bit. The reason I got bit by all three is because I tried to talk them down, if I would of had my pistol drawn like I should have I wouldn't have been bitten by any of them. The first scar should have been a reminder when I tried to talk down the German Shepherd, but no, I thought I could help it. Just like I saved my Dingo who I was able to rehabilitate that was used in dog fights.0 -
I am sorry about not being able to walk but I also hate that the story has to include a pit bull. They are the most loving wondeful dogs in the world. It is the owners that make them mean not the dog. My daughter has a pit bull and she is the sweetest dog. Her heart is so big and she just can't make you happy enough. She lives with 2 cats and at least 2 ferrets and loves those other animals.
I know your topic wasn't exactly pit bulls but they get a bad wrap and I wanted to put in a few words on their behalf. Any dog can be vicious if it is raised that way. Even small dog bites hurt and can do damage. It is ashame that pit bulls get the bad publicity all the itme.0
