Did the pit bull that was attacked with escrima sticks die from his injuries? The injuries inflicted by the sticks?

I’m that guy who’s got a PhD in having his leg pulled and another in having his ass kicked on a playground, but I completed both before I was 10.

I'm impressed if you killed a grown pit bull with a stick. I'm not that brave so I am packing always.

Had one of my hounds attacked by a pit bull 2 weeks ago, dog went through the screen door while walking my dog with one thing in his mind, my dog. He came out and bit onto my dogs back hams and wouldnt let go untill I drop kicked the SOB in the throat, then he staggered off turned around and I fogged him down with a 10 second burst of bear mace, that ended it, next would have been the sig 220, anti pitbull suppressor. Owner ended up paying the $241 vet bill for my dog. Biggest problem now is that dog attack once and more likely again, might be a kid next time

So you know. Time is not our friend. We do what we have to do.

Glad you survived.

Another pit discouraged with bear spray, with the three I did with it makes four. Only problem with mine is, since they never actually made contact, how intent they REALLY were remains unknown. They sure LOOKED serious tho. But in ten years walking/running my dogs through bad neighborhoods they never got bit, 'cept briefly by that one rot that snuck up from behind.

I will say this, I not infrequently ran into loose pit bulls, and even most of these were turned back with me shouting and posturing.

Bear spray ain't a substitute for deadly force, but I'm glad this tool was available tho.

I like pit bulls and have had a number of them through the years. My last one was Ruby, and I had to put her down a few months ago at 14 years old. She saved my wife's life when my last Catahoula turned on her for some unknown reason. We've had 3 Catahoula Leopard dogs that I put down because they got to aggressive and we couldn't control them, I won't give that breed any more chances. No more big dogs for us were planning on traveling and been thinking about a Jack Russell or some other kind of ankle biter.

Already talked to my buddy that's a state police and he said unless I was attacked I would be in trouble shooting the dog, bear mace works great to pitbull changes there mind fast, plus it turns them orange

JRTs are good dogs. 3 at the same time is too much.

I now have a very friendly Schnoodle. No aggression at all.
