This afternoon my DIL was walking her lab. A loose mastiff and a pit attacked her leashed dog. The funny thing is, both my boys live fairly close to each other in Parker. Wade, my younger boy, heard screaming right across the street from his house. He was working from home and seen that the dogs had a dog and a lady on the ground. He rushed out to help, and was able to pull the mastiff off of Dash's throat. Other folks grabbed the pit off Jamie. It wasn't until they had the dogs controlled that he realized it was his SIL and her pup. They held the dogs until the dogcatcher got there. Luckily, Jamie only has scratches, abrasions and soreness, no punctures as the pit only had her by the clothes. Dash, the lab has punctures to neck, throat and shoulders and a damaged leg, but is basically ok. Once everything was controlled, 911, cops, animal control and my oldest boy Will was called. Jamie has a CCP, but wasn't....Lesson learned. Wade rushed out unarmed, another lesson learned.... A couple pics they texted me, and Wades doorbell cam caught his barefoot charge out the door, and you can hear Jamie's screams in it.....
Sounds like a mastiff/pit bull attack and the mastiff did the most damage ? Lucky they were able to get them apart before any serious damage was done. My Rottweiler damn near killed my neighbors German Shepherd one time and would have if I hadn't been right there.
I’ve handled a few mastiffs in my time. Thank God they do not tend to be aggressive, they are huge, strong dogs and could do tremendous damage . If they don’t want to cooperate, a solitary man can’t make them.
Thankful your DIL was mostly unharmed. Sounds like her dog will recover.

a rottie owner? shocked
I'm sure you're best suited to miniature poodles. LOL. Jackass.
Hard to listen to the young lady in trouble, glad she was ok for the most part, good thing you're son was there.
Brings back the memory of my Moms little dog getting torn apart by a Pitbull, then the dog turning on my Mom, almost chewing her thumb off. I was pizzed and something was going to die, the cops had the dog put down right away, smart.

Where were the dogs from?
Wife had a Caucasian come in her work today, smaller female 115 lbs she said. Sweetheart till they tried to take her temp or premed her. Took 3 techs to hold her for the vet to sedate her. I love those big dogs but boy they can be a handful. Even when they are good.
We've got a few neighbors that let their pits run wild at times. I keep telling my wife to take the lcr 38 or 351 pd 22mag at least when she walks the dogs.
We've had issues with aggressive dogs and put bulls running free in our neighborhood. The one old lady the had 2 pits that ran free a lot moved but a relative moved into her house and they have a pit and another big mutt they let run free a lot too.
I told my wife I wanted her to come with me to the range until she's comfortable with carrying a handgun. I hope she will because we have a lot of people around us that like and own dangerous breeds like pits, American bull terriers and others and walking our bird dog gives them a chance to act out. My wife doesn't ever want to take a gun with and she's already had one of our dogs taken down by the throat by a neighbors 85 pound American bull terror while she was walking our dog with our small kids. I've got to get her confidence up with a gun so she's agreed to more range time this summer.
Where I live a pit bull is a more likely scenario for needing a gun than a criminal. Especially while out walking your own dog. It seems to attract all the aggressive dogs around when you walk a bird dog. Although the pits never seem to attack or even come near when I'm walking the dog whether I'm armed or not. I think they smell fear.

I can't find the original news report video, but the knife she used looked like a typical kitchen or steak knife
Sounds like most of those “bully breeds” have had most of the the fight to the death terrier blood breed out of them. Glad that it worked out ok without any serious injuries.
I hope they don't get those dogs back. I wouldn't walk my dog or just take a walk myself without my CC guns. My wife shoots better than I do so there is that. Be Well, RZ.

Where the hell do you get that comment from?
Rather than fantasizing that they lucked out and ran into the Barney Fife of Pit bulls, more likely they recognized the son as the alpha male and they did what mostl canines do, yield to the dominant pack member.

I got called out one night to a bar on the outskirts of Calgary. The cops had arrested a man for a reason I cannot remember. Turned out he had two full grown mastiffs in his van. I had to impound them for safekeeping.
Thank goodness the two cops helped. Both dogs would not cooperate, they just went limp. It took all three of us to move each 180-200lb dogs. At the kennel, thankfully they move on their own accord.
My sister used to live in the Parker, Franktown area. That was back in the late 80’s early 90’s. Beautiful country, and I am sure it’s changed dramatically.
You have to be a real dumbazz to not be armed. Just over 1lb loaded with holster and 7 rounds of Hornady 380 critical defense. Take control of your life and safety instead of hoping someone else will.
Pit owners don't typically have any assets, but your DIL needs to sue the ever loving schidt out of the owners. If she wants to be kind, she can offer that in order to avoid the suit they can pay the vet bills and put the dogs down.

If you hit a mastiff on your bike, would it total the bike? LMAO
Not defending loose dogs or bad breeds like Pits at all. I don’t like em. I happen to like small breeds best. I’ve been around a ton of dogs, but only ever 2 Mastiffs that I can think of. Both were enormous bitches. They looked terrifying. They were 2 of the most harmless dogs I ever met. I have no idea if that’s typical for the breed or not, it just struck me as funny. I wouldn’t want to hit one with anything less than a full sized truck. Yes, I think they’d total a bicycle in a collision.

You're kidding, right? Those allowing dangerous dogs to run free are criminals. 'd definitely kill any pit or similar not on a leash and would be tempted to do the same to their owners.
Dog on dog aggression is certainly not isolated to the bully breeds. I have seen retrievers mix it up pretty good at the boat landings when duck hunting. The Pit Bull attacking the lady is a whole nother deal and should be dealt with accordingly.
I just saw on the news a guy in Vancouver was torn apart by his own dog as he was walking it, a Rottweiler, the cops came and the dog was still beating this guy up, the cops said...."flesh was flying everywhere". The dog ran back in the house and the cops had to tranquilize this fugging thing. https://gown-dog/lobalnews.ca/news/7889924/vancouver-man-attacked-by-

I'm sure you're best suited to miniature poodles. LOL. Jackass.
trailer trash idiots who own dangerous dogs they don't understand and won't control then brag when they try and kill other dogs on homeowner's property.
I carry the scars from a doberman who thought my head would make a nice chew toy. 110 total, bottom jaw on the right cheek and top jaw on the top and back of my grape. I will shoot your off leash dog if it comes near me and my family. Nuff said.

what a clown
The shepherd was on my property you fuuckin idiot. My dog was tied to my back porch. The other dog made the mistake of trying to assert dominance in his territory. Much like your dumb fuuckin ass is doing right here. You really should just shut the fuuck up when you don't know what you're talking about, which is pretty much all the goddam time. Moron.

Lol moron with an aggressive violent Rotty he can’t control who lives in a run down trailer . Tying up a violent big powerful dog to the porch and leaving it unattended? Too lazy to build a kennel or dog run? Don’t even bother giving your dog basic obedience training so of course it wouldn’t listen to you. Surprised it didn’t kill or maim your neighbors.
