When a dog of any breed attempts to kill or viciously attacks another animal, or worse a human, the situation with that animal has already been out of control. The owner obviously does not have control over that dog. Television programs that represent the rehabilitation of these dogs are wonderful, however, these cases of rehab are the exception and not what is happening across the country. Very few people have the training and ability to properly rehab a dog that has already mauled another animal. It is very doubtful that those people would be able to find an accredited place to do it. If they could that would be wonderful but unfortunately it likely will not happen. Shelters are full of pit bulls and other dogs that are put down daily because of aggressive behavior. I say this with great sadness because the American Staffordshire Terrier is a wonderful breed that has been hijacked by irresponsible breeders to create a very unreliable and dangerous group of dogs. I say again. It is not the dogs fault. It is the fault of irresponsible humans and it is they that have caused this tragedy. The dog who did this to the OP's dog can never be trusted in a normal neighborhood environment again. Rather than move the dog to another location where it is a threat to others or to place it in a shelter to suffer and eventually be put down it is my opinion that the kindest thing to do is have the animal humanely put down. I realize others are free to state their own opinions. I am not cold hearted about this but I am a realist. I love the breed and I hope someone cared for that dog but they did not do well by the dog or their neighbors. As for terriers killing rats being related to pit bulls attacking Yorkies.......I can only say that there is no reason or excuse what so ever for a dog of any breed to attack and maul another dog. It is not the natural instinct of the American Staffordshire Terrier to do this. A well bred AST is a wonderful loving companion dog.

i agree 200% with everything you said and i hope we get an update on the strong lil guy i say strong cause he has made it this far i just want to stay positive that he will pull through all this completely!!

Ask~Believe~Receive praying having faith and he will come through!!!

If you will see, the first and last thing I did was offer my well wishes to the poor puppy that was terribly hurt.
My words were NOT to bebeyorkie who is going through such a tragic time in their life, but to someone who hopes that someone else loses a dog they might love as much as the bebeyorkie loves their dog.
And YOU may not think it is my place as a new member, but it's not YOUR place to tell me what my place is.
Thank you.

And once more, I will offer my sympathies and best wishes to Deeogi and bebeyorkie. I do so apologize to you for the drama, and I really am wishing
the best for your family.
It just bothered me that in a thread of well wishing for your family, someone else was hoping for the destruction of someone else's family. That struck me as very wrong. Perhaps I should not have said anything, but keeping my mouth shut has never been something I was good at when it comes to things I see as wrong.
Again, I hope he comes through this without any permanent trauma.

Please start your own thread regarding your opinions. Everyone here is focusing on positve thoughts for our Deeogi. That's what this thread is about prayers and good wishes for Deeogi. This is not a debate about pitbulls or other dogs

Hi Bebeyorkie..... how are you doing? We are so worried, and hope to hear an update on Deeogi and you.

Hugs....

(P.S. I wholeheartedly agree that the focus here should remain on Deeogi and his mommy recovering from this horrible attack).

Cant wait for update xxx

[bebeyorkie]

Thank you everyone and I'm sorry I haven't updated recently. I have returned to work and have been busy taking care of Deeogi.

He is doing remarkably well Eating and drinking on his own. He even tried to bark at the mailman lol wasn't really a bark but he tried. He is walking alot more and is started to look for pee pads when he needs to.

Owner of pit has paid all vet bills. The Vet's office filed a report with animal control yesterday. Animal control has not been to her house yet.

Once again Thank you for all the prayers and good wishes.

I am sooo glad Deeogi is doing better & things seem to be going in a good direction for you all: vet bills were paid (by the responsible party) and animal control was contacted (and you didn't have to do it)!

I will continue to pray for your furbaby & your family and will keep checking back for updates and maybe pictures of Deeogi as he continues to get better!

Yay! So happy to see the newest Deeogi update!

[Rhetts_mama]

Yay! I'm glad to hear that Deeogi is on the mend and that appropriate reports were made to animal control (kudos to your vet). I'm also really glad that your bills were paid, that must be a huge relief to you.

[BabyGirl Rosie]

What a joy to hear a good update! I am thrilled to hear that he is eating, drinking, and doing other things on his own. And after the mailman! Even better! Hang in there Deeogi! We are all sending you love, prayers, and hugs.

[My lil friend]

So glad that your baby is doing better. Glad that your neighbor is taking responsibility and that the vet made the call to AC.
I pray that your baby will continue to improve every day.

[Patti]

Glad to hear Deeogi is improving!!
