(11,204 posts)I am glad to hear that he will be better. It must have been such a horrifying experience. I hope you will keep us posted on how the legal case comes out.
A co-worker of mine took in her niece, great-niece and the niece's 3 dogs, one of which is an intact male Pitt. We keep telling our co-worker that the dog should be neutered but she just says that her niece doesn't want to because she might want to breed him.
I have tried to tell her the potential pitfalls but she isn't listening. My co-worker is really not a dog savvy person and this could be an accident waiting to happen.
A few streets over from where I live there is a family with a pack of dogs (7 I think). Every once in a while they get loose and it is scary to walk down that street. I started taking a stick with me last year when I would go out walking. Purchasing some of that Halt or Bear Spray is probably a good idea too.
