DNA Taken From Pitbull That Raped 2-Year-Old
Police say DNA has been taken from the pitbull that attacked a toddler by allegedly sodomizing it last weekend. It was a disturbing and violent attack. The two year old child is in Women and Children's Hospital. Neighbors heard a mother screaming that her child was being raped. Now people are calling to adopt the pitbull.
Lockport, NY -- Police say DNA has been taken from the pitbull that attacked a toddler by allegedly sodomizing it last weekend. It was a disturbing and violent attack. The two year old child is in Women and Children's Hospital. Neighbors heard a mother screaming that her child was being raped.
Lockport police say taking DNA from the dog is part of the investigation.
Lockport Police received a 911 call from a frantic City of Lockport mother last Sunday afternoon.
The mother told Lockport Police that she left her two year old unattended for a short time and after hearing the baby scream, she ran to see what was wrong.
When she got in the room, she told Lockport Police the dog, named "Bear" had sodomized the toddler. The mother screamed, scaring the dog out of the house, but the dog was still attached to the baby.
One neighbor told 2 On Your Side, she heard the mother screaming "the dog is raping my baby." Neighbors ran to help, but only one man was able to get the dog and child apart.
Anastacio Castillo says "I tried to get the dog away from the baby, the dog was already inside the baby." When the baby was finally free, he was visibly sick. Castillo says the boy was vomiting and bleeding.
The baby was rushed to Women and Children's Hospital where the toddler underwent reconstructive surgery.
The dog is being held at the Niagara County SPCA for evalution. An animal behavior specialist is scheduled to evaluate the pitbull on Friday.
Since the attack, over 20 people have called the SPCA asking to adopt the pitbull. Hear those calls by clicking Video.
The Niagara County District Attorney's office is assisting Lockport Police with the investigation.
Miranda Workman, behavior specialist at Purrfect Paws in Amherst says, "Most likely this is not a learned behavior. Dogs in tact, not spayed or neutered have a higher hormonal drive."
She urges parents to never, ever leave their children alone with a dog.
Well, in recounting something I witnessed at eight years old (as did every other kid on the street, as I recall there was probably about 15 of us watching this) I am not sure about the voluntary thing.
There were two dogs, one of them mine (a male) who were coupled and stuck butt to butt. To kids, that had to be one of the most fascinating, weird, repulsive and funny things we had ever seen, all rolled into one.
The two dogs were kind of freaked out and running back and forth in five foot increments, like one of those little push-me/pull-me bugs.
An adult came out of one of the houses with a bucket of water, and ran up the the dogs and tossed it at them...it happened so fast it was a blur of fur, legs and water, but both dogs went up over a two foot high roadside railing and tumbled down the hill still stuck together.
At some point on the way down, they became, er...”uncoupled”.
All the kids, now lining the railing looking down saw only my dog as the female instantly disappeared, and there was, er...”something” hanging down and dragging on the ground, what looked a good foot and a half long.
I wish I had a picture of our faces. I am certain that our mouths were agape in bewilderment, horror, astonishment and nearly every single other emotion rolled into one.
I heard someone scream (my little sister?) and I remember thinking my dog was going to die because his intestines had all been pulled out. However, our mutt named Brutus did live.
Needless to say, I didn’t grow up on a farm...
Put this pitbull down.
Put all the putbulls down.
No flames from here, I guess if I heard it from a distance I might think the same thing. However, this is part of my extended home turf, so to speak.
My brother-in-law is a sheriff’s dept. detective in that county, and though he is not on that case, I can assure you it’s a true story.
That said, I’m not sure all the details have come out. I certainly don’t know them. But the fact the dog is still alive would indicate there is more to this than meets the eye.
Now that’s just freaky. THat explains why the male always acts like a captive though, but the female doesn’t.
Sorely?
The two-year old will no doubt question your choice of words when he finally gets around to googling your post sometime in the twenty-teens.
Put the animal down.
C’mon now, that’s not the kind of guilt I’m prepared to deal with on a Sunday.
In this instance is most assuredly was a reference to the thick, pulpy matter between the ears...
However, our mutt named Brutus did live.

There used to be an expression...”walk like a broke-dick dog”. Although I never actually saw one of these such dogs walk, I always assumed it was a result of being forced to separate prematurely. How did brutus walk afterwards?

Please elaborate on what you meant by that at the time you wrote it and how it pertains to the article that began this thread.
He walked like a sailor on extended liberty until he reached his bed, where he lay for a long time and licked for a long time.
Sorry, but...that is the God’s honest truth.
‘Pit bull is being evaluated’ BY an ‘animal behaviorist.’???? What’s wrong with this pix?

He can’t elaborate on it; the best he can do is ignore he ever typed it; the worst, lash out at those who call bs on that asinine statement of his.
While it is possible that a baby could have innocently been left alone and unclothed with this dog and it would have of it's own volition begun to attack this baby within a short time in such a way as to leave serious injuries requiring reconstructive surgery.
What is more likely is that some human abuser did the deed and when the baby's injuries were too severe to ignore, fabricated the dog story to explain said suspicous injuries to a medical professional.
“Heck, mine were always naked! I just thought they were weird. :)”
two of mine were like that.
They loved the freedom I guess.
One of my boys always seemed to bring out the worst in other peoples’s dogs, so we thought it best not to bring one home until he was old enough to know how to behave around them.
Don't just euthanize the pit, hang him. But pretend he is up for adoption.
When prospective adoptees show up, hang them, also.
All pit fans are low IQ and masculinity-challenged, including the dykes.
"We need to get rid of his horniness," the girl reportedly said, and then instructed the boy to get down on the floor on his hands and knees where she then forcibly pulled down his pants and underwear, and put the pit bull in position.The boy told her to stop -- that it was "no longer funny."
But it wasn't about to stop. ...
That could possibly be. But if it helps advance the day when this breed will be exterminated from the earth, well, it's a good thing.
