Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Hunter's Campfire Pitbull Attacked a Good Friend Last Night

He just got out of the hospital and called me, they worked on his legs all night.

6 major bite wounds, says he's never had such pain.

He'd headed to see a girlfriend south of Tampa, took her out to dinner at a high-end restaurant.

Matradee was leading them to their table when the attack occurred. The Pit belonged to another customer, he came out from under a table and attacked him in the middle of the dining room.

Totally unprovoked, never saw it coming.

The restaurant had permitted the customer to bring his mutt in.

Paramedics hauled him to the emergency room from the restaurant.

Schits gonna go down, that restaurant and the dog owner are gonna be feeling some pain next......in their pockets.

Wow , crazy deal attacked inside a restaurant , hopefully this will lead to ''NO DOGS ALLOWED"...

Hope he heals up OK and sues the living schit out of them. The dog owner needs to be criminally charged and the dog needs to be put down.

A restaurant with a maitre de allows ghetto trash to bring their pits into the dining room? We’re ties required and hats banned?

He sent me a snapshot of the dog owners drivers license.

He lives in a in a nice waterfront home off Sanibel Island.
He'll be cash fat with good lawyers, so will the restaurant.

Lawyer up.......

Owner may be worthless, but the business likely has some insurance.

Sad that such can happen. Even ankle biters can snap, but rarely pack much of a punch.

Did they kill the dog yet? Did your buddy knife it at least?

I hope the dog is at the pound on death row. And so it goes, another pit bull story.

A guy here in town has a couple big dogs in his shop. A customer mentioned how friendly they were. The dog owner said he kept 2 million in liability insurance on them just incase they one day decide not to be so nice. The insurance came about from a venue that he takes his dogs to that was not welcoming to dogs.

Sorry about your friend. Hope he recovers quickly.

Says the dog had him on the floor immediately.
Major shock factor going on for anyone to react very quickly.

It was so out of place it took a bit for people to figure out what was happening.

Damn, sorry to hear that, hope he gets better, and richer, very soon.

All it takes is a flimsily piece of paper to say "support dog" or something of that nature and businesses must accommodate the owner and dog. No breed restrictions, no mandatory training, nothing. Not saying that's what happened here, just a way people get around "Dogs Not Allowed" signs.

That’s insane to think you’d have to worry about a dog attack in a nice restaurant. I hope he bankrupts all parties involved.

Make damn sure he stays away from the cameras... If the defense catches a video of him water skiing his case will suffer biggly.

Mental and physical trauma...

Find a Shrink that does well in Court.

Good luck to him...

I read all time conflicting info on what businesses can allow and disallow in re service and pretend service dogs. I wonder if a business made them sign a waiver saying the dog owner was responsible for any and all damages incurred would be allowed by law? Lots of barristers on here. Curious as to your input.

That’s nuts. Came out from under the table?

That will be a hefty settlement.

Gee I wish a dog would attack me in a fancy restaurant! That guy is set for life. I guess my lack of fear of dogs is based in my earlier years training dogs to attack. I learned a lot about how not to get hurt. I do have a few dog created scars but hell I never got hundreds of thousands of dollars for them. How lucky can you get!

Like a steakhouse or 'Latin Cuisine' high end restaurant?! Who the hell lets a pit hide under a table?????

I hate pits
