If people would not breed and train them to fight they would be fine. Not all pits are mean aggressive dogs. ________________________________ From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Chicosauntie Carole Sumner Sent: Thursday, July 08, 2010 10:21 PM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: [Chihuahuas] Fwd: Sad story of heroric effort They need to stop the breeding of Pits and other aggressive dogs that Kill.

The fence that separated our properties was an old wood fence that barely was standing. I said to the real state lady that I was concerned for my and my dogs safety. She had said the owners were going to put up a new fence, and they did before escrow closed, so I was relieved. The back fence was a chain length fence with ivy grown all through it, so you really couldn't see the neighbors yard. I had just unloaded the last load and was letting the girls do there business in the yard, I was with them. The neighbors dogs in the back barked, and my 2 ran for the fence. Smidgen had put her foot up on the chain fence and the neighbors dog bit her foot, one toe was taken off, and another was just hanging. This was a great dane that got her. It was a Saturday on Memorial weekend, so we had to rush her to the emergency vet.. $400.00 day. The only thing I could do was go over and tell the neighbor, and make sure there dog was up to date on shots, and if it was licensed. Smidgen was very lucky that the dog only got her toes, if it had been her foot, they would have had to amputate her leg, costing me a couple thousand at least. For the last two years I have had to block off access to that area of the yard. I just was able to put up a solid vinyl fence, so now my intire yard is either a brick wall, or the vinyl. & I still worry. We had a pit bull attack in our area just a couple weeks ago, toddler boy was in his back yard with the familys pit, and the parents had went in to the house for a moment. The pit attacked and killed the boy.. I know there are pit lovers, I am an animal lover, but they do make me nervous.. --- On Wed, 6/30/10, [email protected] <[email protected]> wrote: >From: [email protected] <[email protected]> >Subject: Re: [Chihuahuas] Fwd: Sad story of heroric effort >To: [email protected] >Date: Wednesday, June 30, 2010, 11:58 AM > > >The article says Richmond, Calif. > >Gloria > > > > >-----Original Message----- >From: Wendy <[email protected]> >To: [email protected] >Sent: Wed, Jun 30, 2010 1:46 pm >Subject: Re: [Chihuahuas] Fwd: Sad story of heroric effort > > > >What a CROCK!!! > >Not the Chihuahua.
