I'll empty a whole clip before the day my dog is taken away from me.

I believe if your dog attacks someone you should be tried as if you committed the crime yourself.

sadly many people train them to be this way.

Sounds a fair figure...Ł758 for everyday you are affected...Which could potentially be the rest of your life.

On ITV1 London Local news now
The Dog first attacked the officer's leg
and being half pit bull , half doberman
it would not let go of his leg.

(I wonder if his leg will have to be removed?)

They went to arrest a criminal
but did not think the Dog from Hell
would be there.


That Criminal will now
have the dangerous dog added as another charge.

People always blame the dogs...but its usually how they are brought up

That said, my mum got a lakeland terrior pup when I was about 15. We brought it up right, the same as our other dogs (who we had never ever had a problem with, softest dogs you could ever meet) but it attacked my sister one day for no reason. Ripped her arm open. Turns out it came from a 'working dogs' family and this is likely to be why. So I guess sometimes you cant train the violence out of the dog :/

Does always seem to be pitbulls though...I wonder if this is because (and no offence to anyone who has a pitbull) they seem to be very popular amongst young chavs who probably dont even know how to look after a dog. The reason they are popular among those people is probably because the dogs are typically viewed as dangerous...

Yes True
this Criminal at that house trained his dog to attack police etc.

Thought we had another riot on our hands just reading the thread title

My Dog is "good" and been raised properly, but it has attacked someone before.

If the police came to get me, my cat would be helping them, not protecting me.

I agree, lads use dogs as accesories too, and it seems to go in phases a few years ago it was dobermans and rotwielers then alsatians or german shepherds. now its pitbulls or staffs

Any reason why, or just a random attack? :S

Some kid actually set his doberman on my mother in law a month or so ago when she was walking back from the shop late at night. Shes still relatively fit though and she was quite close to her house so managed to get in before it got to her

Its really scary though because she lives in sheltered accommodation and a lot of the people round there have trouble walking. if it had been anyone else that the dog had been set on, they would have been caught as they cant move as quickly :/

..I agree..although I suppose there are 'bad' dogs the same as there are 'bad' people..but on the whole I think it's the owners

It was more of an "attempted attack" if that makes sense. Was close though. I genuinely got no idea what was going through it's head at the time. I know they get Jealous easily if you pay attention to someone else for abit,which is why some attacks happen in the home, but this wasn't one of those :s . Thankfully It was outside and on a leash and I was able to control it enough to an extent that it only bit the woman's trouser slightly.

Never seen him like that before..

I can't be sure, but i think your dog might be gay?

Yeah she did, hasnt heard anything back though. She told the police and the council, but theres always things like that happen round there. i guess its because people know its mostly elderly/disabled people there so they pick on them

Sounds bad :S

Our labrador tried to attach a neighbour once apparently when I was like 6 months old. My mum had took me and the dogs for a walk and some bloke helped her get my buggy over a step thing...and my mum says she thinks the dog thought he was attacking me. Its really rare for labs to attack too. Was the only time the dog ever did anything to anyone, it never even barked at anyone ever. sometimes you just dont know
