Being hoisted _up and thrown off_ balance....

*sigh*

Never post after your 90 pound Dobe wakes you up, snarling and barking at something he hears outside...and then jumps on your chest in his desire to make *sure* you know there’s something outside.

One less pit bull in the world today, a great way to start off my day, thank you for posting this. A good pitbull is a dead pitbull.

Look, I’m trying to get helpful information out there, based on my personal experience and the experiences of other pit bull owners.

It is not helpful to advise someone to grab an attacking pit bull by the hind legs. That advise will get someone killed. The only way to deal with an attacking pit bull is with excessive deadly force.

Grabbing a pit bull by the legs is only a means to save the pit bull and that should not even be a consideration if a pit bull is attacking. It should be killed without question. If one so much as walks in my direction and is off its leash, it will be laying in the street dead.

Well, you go ahead and just unload into a dog, surrounded by a crowd of people, while it’s still got somebody’s arm/leg/child in it’s mouth, and possibly under it’s body.
Let me know how that works out for you, Rambo.

Go ahead, resort to snide uniformed insult. I have a CCW permit and the training that goes with it. I have over 40 years handling weapons, many of those as an expert marksman. I am trained to know when to pull the trigger and have the accuracy to put the round where it needs to be.

I don't mean to be harsh with you but your sillyness on here is what is dangerous. I'm sorry if you are embarrassed because someone pointed out that your bad advise puts people's lives at risk but it needed to be corrected.

While my reply was certainly, unabashedly snide, it was not an insult. If you have the expertise you claim, explain to me how you're going to prevent the bullet from ricocheting inside the dog, or passing right through it's body, hitting the dog's victim or someone standing nearby? Wouldn't you rather someone like me seperate the dog from it's target so you could get a good clean shot?

I don't mean to be harsh with you blah blah blah patronistic/condescending/blowhard blah blah blah.

*SNERK*
