You Vs. a Pit Bull

You’re walking down the street, minding your own business, when all of the sudden, out of no where, a Pit Bull comes flying straight at you. He’s out for blood and you barely have time to react.

How are you going to handle him?

My first reaction was concealed carry based but after a little thought you damn near have to let the animal bite you first before you can react these days.

Cause it won’t be you on TV defending yourself to the public (Future jury), instead it will be the crack addict/trailer trash/whatever saying “My dog wont never hurt no body, he just up an kilt it”.

Never mind all the responsible Pit owners who train and care for their pups. I have said it before and I will say it again, weak NON ALPHA people should not own these dogs.

If you cannot tell your dog NO and back it up with good training then get a freaking toy poodle or some such small dog.

The good pit owners I know understand what their dog is capable of and treat the dog accordingly.
Animals bred for a purpose (as pits are) respond better if they are trained and disciplined. They want someone to be the Alpha or they will try for it themselves.

Animal training 101!
I really wish people who stop trying to make animals human, capable of reason. All animals have moments where they lash out, even the most well trained ones, call it a headache or a hurt paw, but you cannot ask an animal what is wrong and reason away its pain.
Ask anyone who was at that one Vegas Tiger act!

So if one attacks you then it is either challenging your authority as leader, sees you as prey, protecting its territory, or is just plain out of its mind (sickness, whatever). Very basic instincts!

Instinct is to run. Bad idea. Be top dog and be the aggressor. If he bites on to you start bashing his nose until he can’t breathe. You’re still screwed no matter what though.

kick it as hard as I can with my boots in the ribs.

that’ll teach that crazy dog.

and then, if the owner comes shouting why I did that for etc tell him to fuck off.

Atleast here in Europe, if you smack a dog it’s A OK.

I agree with the previous post tho, weak (mentally not physically) people shouldn’t be allowed to have those types of dogs. Here in Switzerland a new rule has been set; every owner that has a dog MUST go through a dog training course (theory and practice). A bit like for your drivers…

since pits are not very large dogs I’d probably try to smash him on the ground,either that or hitting his eyes and nose

Try to get its back and pound it from behind.

Unless you’re a pretty big guy, I gotta agree with this.

My friend’s family got themselves a pit bull a few years ago, and, I’ll admit, I had no idea just how fucking solid these dogs are built until I got to pet and play tug-o-war with one in person.

But, despite the horror stories you can read about pit bulls every now and then, she’s probably one of the sweetest and most playful dogs I’ve met.

Terrible breath, though.

As long as you have Alpha Male and Surge coursing through your veins, all you have to do is say “SIT” in a booming voice.

Once the dog is settled, pet the dog a couple of times and go find the owner to give him a 300lbs bite in the arm. DO NOT LET GO.

f

Give the dog your weak arm and bash him the throat with the other.

At least thats what they taught my dad in shore patrol school in the navy. You might also want to take into consideration this was in the early 60’s.

But it makes sense to me.

Forget the Pit Bull. Its the rising tide of wild Yorkies I’m afraid of. It’s a massive furry blob flowing down the street. No Where To Run. No Where To Hide. Can only hope to climb to higher ground. Alas there are no trees. Dammit there are no trees.

I can feel them flowing over my feet. Tiny needles digging into my skin, devouring my flesh like thousands of furry piranha. I’m Melting. I’m Melting like the wicked witch. Devoured by 12 ounce loofahs with legs.

Be Afraid. BE VERY AFRAID.

My husband is a letter carrier, and the “official” method of dealing with a biting dog is to stick your finger up his ass–theoretically, he will let go of you.

I’m not sure what’s supposed to happen next–do you just sit there with your finger up his butt until help arrives? Do you give the dog a prostate massage until he becomes your best friend? These questions remain unanswered by the postal service.

I would pick that crazy dog up by the neck, and fling him into a busy street while yelling “Cow…waa…bunga!”. If I was not in the vicinity of a busy street, a good solid wall would do.

My only hope would be that the high pitch squeal coming from me would be high enough to hurt the dog’s ears, and disorient him long enough for me to get out of harm’s way.

In my area all the lamp-posts have a three-foot box at their base. My first action would be to jump up onto one of those.

The next would be to kick wildly.

If I had a little more time, I would take my jacket off, wrap it around my arm while shielding my neck with the other arm. Offer the dog my covered arm and procede to stomp its feet, kick it in the balls, poke its eyes and punch it in the nose. Which ever opportunity presented it self first. Without time for the jacket, just offer my weak arm and do the same stuff to disable the dog.

I may lose, but if I do, the news wont report “man loses life to dog, dog must be put to sleep” it will be “man killed by dog, dog does not survive attack”

It’s a tragedy that the world has become a place where this most wonderful of all the high performance breeds would even become the subject of a thread like this.

Not to mention that despite similar looks, what was once known as simply a “bulldog” by the pit men of old has become practically extinct anyway.

Game bred fighting dogs were the most human friendly and awesomely athletic breed of canine ever to grace the face of this planet and the limp wristed, faggotty do gooders have managed to all, but kill it.

I have never fought a dog in my life, but yes, believe it should have been left alone. The public misperception about bodybuilding is nothing in comparison to it’s utter ignorance concerning the SERIOUS sport of dog fighting as practiced by some of the most knowledgable and dog loving men who ever lived.

Agreed. Being the aggressor saved my tail early one morning in 1999 when I was out walking. Two Pits came after me and I had no where to go so I turned towards them and starting yelling. Both dogs got within five feet of me and started backing up. My only guess is both Pits thought I was the bigger dog and decided not to attack.

My only regret is not retrieving my shotgun and executing both dogs. They ended up mauling my five year old son about four months later while he was outside playing with a neighbor child.

Lesson learned for me. If a dog comes out of his yard and shows any aggression at all he dies. The life of some else’s dog is not worth the pain and suffering my son went through.
