Three people were hurt at a metro neighborhood after an apparent pit bull attack.
Just before 9 a.m. Thursday, police responded to a home on the 400 block of Pumpkin Circle. A woman was trying to save her cat from two pit bulls, when police say the dogs turned on her.
The woman’s neighbor, Kelly Babbit, said she saw what was happening outside and didn’t think twice to run out and help.
“One of them was little, and I thought I could take them, and I got to there and the dog looked at me and the little one took a running leap and locked onto my face and I went down and when I went down, the big one came and locked on my head,” recalled Babbit.
Her son, Nick Merrell, heard his mother screaming and said he went into what he described as “defense mode.”
“I pushed one off to the side, but the other one came up and bit me on my leg,” Merrell said. “He bit me on my other leg, but didn’t get me as good.”
As soon as they ran inside their home, they called the police.
Another one. The child was said not to have life threatening injuries, but it was also said that the dog held the child’s head in his mouth. Hopefully no skull fractures nerve or lobe damages occurred. Psychological damages to the child, the relative and the officer who was forced to kill the dog may not be visible for a long time, if ever.
I’m waiting for a congressman or senator bold enough to introduce a bill that will outlaw new ownership, breeding or sales of these dogs. I don’t care what party that public servant belongs to at that time. This is bigger than the party.
Pit bulls belong in zoos - not back yards.
Chet 99 dog of peace ping.
Reckless breeding got us here, and I’m wondering if DNA testing can help to isolate the Deranged chromosome.
Pitbulls need to be eradicated. NOW.

Another Pit Bull becomes a Good Pit Bull. Too bad people got hurt in the process.
Never trust that an Animal will not act like an Animal.
We always owned Dogs and I never let them roam without being leashed and I never let People approach them without taking the time to acquaint them with the Animal to be sure there weren’t any issues.
RULE NUMBER ONE, never make a sudden move when meeting a Dog for the first time, especially near their face and head.
It’s the same as never taking your eyes off a Toddler for one split second if you own a Pool.
Imagine trusting a (modern day) Democrat to act like an America loving Patriot. They ae incapable of doing it simply because they simply hate America as founded.
