“If all else fails, Web sites focused on dog attacks recommend curling up in a fetal position and protecting the head and face—areas where plastic surgery is harder to hide with clothing.”

How reassuring.

The final lunge made by a charging attack dog is a momentary blind, airbourne and open jawed.

When a dog attacks you, standing firm one foot forward the other back. Raise your forward arm waist high and horizonal; offer it to the dog as a target. You are now a matador. Your other hand/arm is your sword. Keep your fingers straight and pointed.

Battle: As the lunging dog goes for you target arm >>> PLUNDGE YOUR SWORD HAD DOWN FIDO's THROAT and KILL THE DOG by suffication/strangulation.

Note: You will survive despite inevitable injuries.

Consider the modern compound bow:

Everybody should have one.

The bowhunters super store.

No noise, much more efficient and powerful than a traditional bow and easier to aim and shoot.

Put it on a high speed rail to the nearest town with a crooked cop.

We have a pit bull and a cat, who has made the dog bleed several times.

Last week a homeless kitten came to our house and we’ve been taking care of it. It got through the baby gate and into the kitchen with the dog who started to chase it. The kitten hissed and drew back it’s little paw to scratch the dog’s nose. The Pit Bull stopped so fast he slid, looked at me with a “what do I do now” look and proceeded to pee on the floor.

Mean dog, that one.

A pit bull not on a leash comes in my yard with my kids and my Shelties will be shot on sight. No hesitation. No guilt.

Is this satire? Has to be.

I believe I read that you should reach out an extremity that is your weaker, ie left forearm or leg, let them bite it, which they will not let go of. Then with the other strong hand thumb its left eye out. Of course if you have time (which you most likely won’t), try to wrap your shirt or sweater/coat around your arm before it gets near you to weaken the damage to your arm. Main thing is once it has bit down on you don’t pull away as you will make more damage, they will not let go unless you thumb their eye out or perhaps if you can (and are trained in it) reach your right open hand over and around its neck and choke it till it is dead. Trying to bite its ear off may make it let go but because your head will be so close to it then it may then bite your face.

Here is something I just found too which gives the idea to thumb and rip out under the neck, which is probably less effective as those dogs have a lot of muscular necks.

I do not support the idea of going down into a fetal position on the ground, this to me would make your head the first place the dog goes for to bite, possibly including ripping your ears off and eyes out at the same time. If the dog is going to attack you, being in a fetal position is about the worst position to me, you have to be on the attack, not trust that the dog is going to leave you alone.

If you only have a knife, blind them by slicing their eyes. Then cut their throat.

What are your thoughts about pit bulls? Are they maligned? Any ideas for preventing attacks you can share?

When is this going to stop!

I think a 45ACP to the head is quite adequate for "mean" and free-roaming pit bulls. In the rural areas of this country, dog fighting is big business.

There were nearly 300 pit bull attacks in Indianapolis last year.

Dumb/Criminals owners...and folks that don’t realize they should keep
their distance from some canines (i.e., give them a wide berth)?
