Oh, how awful!

kalina82 · 06-20-2010, 08:30 AM

so sad that her maltese died.

thankfully the strays were caught so they cannot harm any other animals/people.

yeah there is another story on there that you can link to where a woman shot a pit bull - it was sad too

I just wish people would keep their dogs on a leash to protect them and others

That was horrible! What a shame on the owner of those pit bulls...

yeah very sad

some whackos on those news pages. My cousin's son was stabbed to death a year ago and I could not believe the comments made. It was sick. It was like a punch in the stomach to the family to read the comments when they never knew him. My aunt and uncle were devastated so we had to tell them not to go on there and read what these idiots were writing. Some need to get a life sadly

Oh, I guess it's ok since it was a yappy dog, but had it been one of their children.....(comments) people are so stupid!

That's why I am afraid to walk my dogs. One time we were walking and two german shepherds lunged at their front window and I thought they were going to break it out. Scary. I need to get some pepper spray or something. Not sure how much good it would do...

How sad.

Another tragedy due to irresponsible pet owners.

How horrible. I am sorry your family had to experience such a tragedy. When my SIL was shot back in August by an ex bf, while 6 mo pregnant, we also dealt with negative posters on news forums. The ignorance of some people is disgusting.

omg sorry about your tragedy

so sad - some sick people in the world. I never knew about the bloggers on these news sites until that happened to my cousin's son and was shocked at how cruel people who did not know anything were. They caught the guy who stabbed him and he is in jail thank goodness so justice was served. He was only 18 when he was stabbed. His friend called him to come stay with him as some guys were having a party next door and when he showed up they started at him and when he walked away they stabbed him to death. He was a good kid trying to be a friend and I think his friend was not such a good kid we found out

Its a very sad situation that (I believe) could have been avoided. A lot people believe that when they get an APBT that it can just sit around in the house all day or tied up to a tree, but that is not the case. APBTs need to be exercised and they are indeed WORKING dogs and need to be in homes where they can be worked all the time.

I would bet my bottom dollar that this dog was meant to be a "house pet" or "outside dog" and never was given any consideration that he needed to be exercised. APBTs when not in the proper working home can and will more than likely become aggressive in nature and unfortunately that poor Maltese had to suffer.

Thanks!

You got that right. I finally had to stop visiting the forums/blogs because a few were so ugly.

I registered and posted about the Malti. Maybe she will see them and find at least one on her side.
