i sometimes wonder if a taser to the gumline wouldn't be the best non-lethal option.

I don't think it will ever come to that. But if I see another one of these monsters near the park where I walk the dog, I'm making a beeline back to the house and strapping up like Rambo. I refuse to be that woman screaming and crying 20 feet away while a pit shakes the life out of her dog.

With my luck it would happen in the middle of the forest trail with a stray and no one to help.

Bad luck, doggo, I got 12 helpers.

I carry this SOG clipped inside my right front pocket. It can be out and opened with one hand in a heartbeat. Either stab it or cut it's throat, it'll do the job.

Those dogs were pretty damn chill though.

Just feed the pit bulls a bunch of peanut butter, they will be so busy licking their lips they won't be biting anything.

pit bulls like flesh and blood

Pitbull eating the head & neck of another dog through a fence. ***Extremely gruesome, NSFL video***

They smell blood. They hunger. They kill. They feast.

Cops saw dogs ‘eating ribcage’ of suspected mauling victim

I wouldn't trust a knife with a pit. They could knock it out of your hand and then you're ****ed. They use to train cops to get behind the animal and pull back on the collar because it doesn't take much to make these animals go to sleep once you close off the airway. That's how the subhumans that ran dog fighting rings dealt with pits.

Well, I don't carry a gun with me everywhere or a club or???. So I'm leaning heavily on the razor sharp SOG I always carry.:shrug:

I wonder but if in my yard and aggressive the 10MM is effective. Glock 20. SM 15 SP AR 15 and a no name PUP. You come on my yard and aggressive **** them but. I do have an 88 YO dad to consider. Never been a person afraid of dogs until him tho.

Get of my lawn MM.... :)

Fat Cat?

Yall ever hear of a model 12. Dad gave it to me. Rumor is it might be valuable...

Never mind.

I have never seen a bigger bunch of bitches all scared of a dog in my entire life. Offseason sucks.

No, just an old Flash II. Been carrying on for the last 20 yrs or so. I think this is the 3rd one.

Damn, that Fat Cat is a fine looking knife.

This is one of the dumbest things I have ever read on this board.

they're a set of lethal jaws with wings a brain set to kill mode, who gives a shit about weight

it's basically like running into a cacodemon

https://steamuserimages-a.akamaihd.n...etterbox=false

My neighbors have these dogs and they have always been lovely to me but I’m definitely more careful around them than other dogs. Not a fit family dog for children IMO

Not only that, but dogs basically see humans in slow motion. Yes, a human man could survive a dog attack by fighting back, but unless they get absolutely lucky within their first couple of kicks or strikes, they are going to sustain a huge amount of physical damage.

And in the chaos of being attacked, it would take just a stumble, being off balance for a second, and you could end up on the ground, and that would not be good.

The pic in question shows dogs doing something extremely aggressive, which is scaling a fence to get to you. Dogs who want pets and belly rubs don't scale fences to chase you down. The chances of two pitties killing an adult human being have to be over 50%.

I don't know what an expert would say, but to me, if you have never seen those dogs before, or ever interacted with them before, run. I feel like the chances of reaching some type of shelter or protection are better than defeating two pit bulls in mortal combat.

I'd still argue fixed but not a bad choice.

“Mortal combat” ROFL ROFL

Y’all are a dramatic bunch.

Estimates online put the total pit bull population as low as 4m or as high as 18m. On average, 40 people are killed by dogs each year.

There’s no way there are that many poorly trained, bloodthirsty pit bulls who are lethal to grown men roving around with so few deaths each year. That math ain’t mathing.

I didn't say anything about the number or volume of attacks.

Also, I said mortal combat because dogs who attack humans aren't just trying to hurt them, their goal once they start attacking is to kill.

The story Clay posted was….. odd.

Weird insinuation her period provoked the attack.

Well you can’t ignore it. CDC reports over 4.5 million dog bites each year. Sure, you can ignore a lot of them because they’re caused by Chihuahuas and Yorkies, but if pit bulls were as bloodthirsty and dangerous as many in this thread claim, there would be a hell of a lot more than 40 deaths per year.

This is one of the dumbest things I have ever read on this board.

They don't report dog murders, numbskull.

Another dumb one who sucks the penis had his half-pitt mutt off the leash at the ****ing public park today.

Copper went off and here comes the brute to "play." Heart ****ing pounding as I scramble to get the dog in the car and get the **** out of there before my dog's throat is torn out.

His owner approached the car to say god knows what. Don't care.

Went home and called animal control to come out.

PUT YOUR DOGS ON A ****ING LEASH

https://media0.giphy.com/media/5xtDa...giphy.gif&ct=g

Do you have a stroller for your dog?
I don't know why but that's how I picture the situation...lol.

Oh look Clay is talking about dick again.

Whenever I see this thread bumped, I always hop in and read it, and it becomes more and more obvious to notice who has witnessed or been privy to a dog attack before and who hasn't.

I own a dog, he's half border collie, half great pyrenees. He's a lovable doofus who barks too much for my liking but isn't aggressive to people at all; but if I didn't realize the potential of harm that he represents on the wrong day or the wrong person, I'd be a ****ing idiot.

If someone's dog isn't on a leash in a public setting, whether it's 100 lbs or 20 lbs, they're a moron. I've seen a beagle rip at a woman's ankle before as she was trying to help an elderly woman with her car. I don't care what breed or how big their dog is, if they don't keep their dog on a leash in a public setting, they're being irresponsible.

They're animals. We've domesticated them and selectively bred them, but they are still animals at their core, carnivores that are designed by nature to eat other living things and defend themselves when they determine something is a threat.

https://worldanimalfoundation.org/ad...#4.5%20million

My dog is a ****ing idiot who would gladly throw down with any pitbull on the block.

Ergo, in these situations, I not only have to worry about the other dog OFF A ****ING LEASH but my own for thinking he's a bear.

It doesn't even matter if it wasn't a pitbull. The ****ing thing could have rabies or leprosy or who ****ing knows. Plus, he was with a family with at least 3 kids. Dude was probably "defend the pack" mode or something.

****ing idiots. Keep your pets. ON. A. ****ING. LEASH.

I went to Waldo to walk my dog today.

I also have a border collie mix. She's the least aggressive dog ever. If another dog gets close, she will flop over on her back submissively with her paws up in the air.

She wouldn't hurt a squirrel. Yet I still keep her on a leash. FOR HER OWN SAFETY.

66.9% of fatal dog attacks on humans are done by pitbulls.

That number is enlightening.

If this thread's history is any indication, this is the exact sort of post that will now prompt the Pit Bull Bros. to respond with statistics regarding cats killing birds.

https://i.redd.it/kw9iudo500zb1.jpg

That's it?

I figure we were looking at 90+%

This changes everything. Rushing down to the shelter tomorrow to grab a sweet little pittie and introduce them to my 7 and 1 year old!! Bet they'll love them!!

I’m sure the Pittie will find them delicious.

I don't mean this as an insult, but this post gives off Raj & Cinnamon vibes.

Unless you've been charged by a pitbull FIVE ****ING TIMES and have a bone bruise to show for it, SHUT THE **** UP.

I hope there are more pitbulls just to piss everyone off.

You hope there are more pit bulls? WTF does this even mean? That they multiply above and beyond normal means? More pit bull attacks?

The only obvious conclusion to draw is that you are taking the short bus from one thread to the next, reerun status on full display.

Don’t forget to grab a complimentary barb wire tat and smedium wife beater.

In my 5 K doordash deliveries the meanest dogs I have run into are German Shepards. I have been attacked by 2 of them, I have had a few pitbulls bark as loud as can be at me through doors.

Dude almost gangbanged by two pits LMAO

I was mauled by a German Shepherd, and have scars all over my head.

So, YOU SHUT THE **** UP AND STOP BEING A PRISSY LITTLE TELEVISION CHARACTER.

Not speaking to the person is a sissy bitch move. You were in your car. If you were upset, you could have rolled down your window and said something. Instead you rushed home to write about it like an internet tough guy.

I don't want to see any dogs get hurt, yours or otherwise. But what you described read like an overreaction and your description of the way you left was comical and embarrassing. Just like Raj would have reacted with Cinnamon. I would ask if you carry your dog in a purse, but I feel like I would be insulting Women and members of the LGBTQIA+ community via association.

And maybe you are a bit racist, since being compared to a brown skinned television character, who was rich and hooked up with a couple of hotties during the show, immediately made you that upset. Or, are you just homophobic, because you believe that character to actually be gay?

Same here, I’ve done thousands upon thousands of deliveries and have had more incidents with German shepherds then pit bulls.

My mother told me not to speak to strangers. Especially those who break the law. No good comes of it.

If someone is breaking the law, and you are not in immediate danger, you should never try to confront them or amend the situation yourself. That's literally why we have 311 and 911. To AVOID escalation with society's criminal element.

I was in the car with the windows rolled up and my dog baying its ass off. I couldn't even hear the idiot and didn't care what he had to say. STOP BREAKING THE LAW ASSHOLE! I hope they took his stupid dog away to die by lethal injection. I'm sure that will be his fate in a few years anyway.

Of course it was.

THAT'S WHAT DOGS DO YOU IDIOT. I WAS IN CONTROL OF MY ANIMAL. I DID NOTHING WRONG!

You're constantly scared. Of any number of things.

Mom should have let you talk.

You're damn right I'm scared of things that can ****ing murder me.

But no longer. I won't walk my dog anywhere I've ever seen a murderous piece of shit dog off the leash.

Fun life, Clay.

Strawman argument to make yourself feel better. 5% of my week doesn't impact the other 95%.

Sure bud.

Shut up, ****.

Boo.

Oh look, it's that time of the year when Clay comes around to remind us how much of a wimp he is. Must be that dead time in the offseason. Like clockwork.

I'm a wimp because I drove away from a high-risk situation and reported the law being broken?

I'd be a ****ING IDIOT around these parts to do anything else.

Play stupid games win stupid prizes.

Correct.

So...not a Pit. Just a dog. Got it.

"A Dog" (Not a pit) barked at your dog, so you ran off (and we've all seen you run) to your car. Someone came to apologize, but you're such a wimp that you locked your door, ignored him, sped off and then called animal control.

That's just so hilariously gay. Good for you, man. Good for you. Living your best life.

The dog did not "bark" at my dog. It was coming AT me. It was a strange animal off the leash presenting a threat.

I've learned my lesson FIVE ****ing times now. I'll gladly be labeled GAY with a dog that's ALIVE.

Yeah dogs don't typically respond well to nervous, wimpy beta energy. It makes them nervous, like something's ****ing wrong with you.

Either way, still a hilarious mental picture. 40-something year old wimpy soy boy booking it across the park, titties flapping around...cargo shorts and flip flops and that dorky run of yours...jumping into your car, locking the door and speeding off.

You musta looked so wimpy that another grown ass man had to come check on you LMAO LMAO LMAO

And then you locked the door and sped off. Probably had some desperate, crazed look in your eye too. BWAHAHA oh man. Too funny.

Dude was probably like, "Are you ok, ma'am? Im so sorry". And you were all, "No! Leave me the **** alone im horrified im calling animal control!".

Too funny.

Holy shit you dumb **** I was walking down the street minding my own business.

**** off.

Was it a long run back to your car? Please tell me it was a long run....LMAO

I had to limp half a mile home with blood streaming down my leg from what later turned out to be a bone bruise after one pit attack.

And yes, I reported it. The clown who lived there learned his ****ing lesson.

Go **** yourself.

Again, i ask, was it a long run? Did you sweat?

No you ****ing idiot, I had just gotten out of the car.

BWAHAHAHAHAHAHA

...but you said you were walking down the street...

I mean, still funny regardless.

That was the OTHER pit attack.

I didn't ask you about "another pit attack". I asked you about your recent harrowing encounter with death.

Im sorry, you must still be suffering from PTSD after such a traumatic experience. So much so that you're having difficulties keeping your stories straight.

But seriously clay, im glad to see you made it out alive from that (not-a-pit) dog charge-almost-attack.

Wipe the tears from your eyes. You're ok now. Everything is gonna be ok. You're in a safe space.

I don't care, dipshit. I'm going to do what I have to do to defend my family.

They are just trolling you 'cause they don't like you.
Let it go.

So noble. So brave. So strong.

I’m sure it’d disappoint Clay’s father

This is not a mother****ing game. This is life or death.

See Clay, THAT'S how you defend your family.

But instead....Clay: "But im the girl in this scenario!"

Choke holds are nice, bullets are better.

Then why didnt you shoot the dog that was "charging" at you?

You'll have to be more specific. Which pitbull attack are you referring to?
