wednesday1 Posted January 23, 2012 Share Posted January 23, 2012 The type, if there is one that you refer to make up a very small minority, the trouble is that owning any breed that is vilified gets a person branded regardless of background. Yeah, course they are. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Murphy Jnr Posted January 23, 2012 Share Posted January 23, 2012 Yeah, course they are. A comment which does kind of sum up your blinkered argument. There are no figures to support any claims that owners of the breeds specifically mentioned in this thread or any other are of one type of person as is always suggested.

MrMoran Posted January 23, 2012 Author Share Posted January 23, 2012 I'm a 'type of person' Oh dear... The only breed I've ever owned is a Staffy, apart from 'Missy' who is now with my Mum having been left there when I moved out. Shes half staffy, 1/4 english bull, and 1/4 'pit bull' (whatever 'pit bull' means) and looks like an overgrown Jack Russell, and is scared to go outside in the dark, in the rain, and is terrified of even the ironing board, shes well 'ard! Bless her, poor old girl! Sounds dangerous. Kill it!!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrMoran Posted January 23, 2012 Author Share Posted January 23, 2012 Man has been arrested http://www.talktalk.co.uk/news/article/girl-six-is-savaged-in-dog-attack/34698/ He gave himself up at the plioce station. The dog has now been seized so thats curtains for that poor thing. Im guessing hell get a 6 or 12 months suspended sentence. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Murphy Jnr Posted January 23, 2012 Share Posted January 23, 2012 Interestingly the same image of a Staffie was used in another story surrounding an attack on another dog this time http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-1359776/Family-devastated-adopted-RSPCA-dog-savaged-chihuahua-death.html. This particular animal is obviously innocent of both attacks but it's the meanest looking one they could find on google images, possibly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stunning looking creature, its just a shame theres a good chance if you follow the lead to the end youll find something with less brains, more aggression and not as handsome.

alchresearch Posted January 23, 2012 Share Posted January 23, 2012 Given the types of people who tend to own these dogs, I don't the threat of a slap on the wrists if they are caught with the mutt off leash, will act as much of a deterant. + there is always a risk of the dog escaping. That's the crux of the problem, any knee-jerk reaction would only serve to punish the law abiding and be ignored by the scum who own and let these dogs run about. I think there's a saying "Only the law abiding fear the law". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Conrod Posted January 23, 2012 Share Posted January 23, 2012 The apologists will soon be on saying it isn't the dogs it's the owners, just like the gun lobby do when people shout for more restrictions on gun ownership!Amazing isn't it. I'm sure many of these attacks take place as a result of responsible owners taking well-socialised and controlled dogs for a pleasant walk in their local woods. Heaven forbid that somebody would tie the responsibility for out of control dogs owned by scrotes with the scrotes themselves. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
