Pitbull dog attack victims call for muzzle safeguard

The victims of a pitbull dog attack are demanding a change in the law to have all potentially dangerous breeds muzzled in public. Oh boy... here we go !! We should also neuter all potential rapist too! (I wish they could).

Meg Donovan was walking her nine-month-old Cavalier King Charles puppy, Chucky, at Fitzroy's Peringa Park yesterday afternoon when she was attacked by an unleashed pitbull dog.
The horrifying experience left Mrs Donovan needing hospital treatment to cuts and bite marks on her arm, while her puppy was last night under a vet's care with serious injuries.

"The dog just went at me and tore Chucky from my hands," she said. "It tore right through my leather coat and I couldn't hold on to Chucky any longer. I had big heavy gumboots on and I kept kicking it in the guts, but it just wouldn't stop. I've never seen anything like it in my life."

You know... I totally sympathyse with this story. I think that it's awful that this has happened. It's revolting...

But now let's look at the solution that they have asked for... all POTENTIALLY dangerous dogs be muzzled in public. Excuse me? All dogs, for that matter, are potentially dangerous. It's the socialisation.

It's actually the ALLOWING for socialisation to even take place.

Now we have to go to PUPPY SCHOOL.

Sheese... I remember when a dog was allowed to sniff another dog and let them have their fun. Now it's like kids: we tell them when to exercise, we drive them to their friends, we organise their daily life... and then we wonder WHY they do drugs, write graffitti, and be a nuisance to society. Does this sound familiar.. helloo!!!
