Dangerous Dogs Owners

CSPCA are only about one thing, money. They don't even care about three dogs that are consistently blocking pedestrians from passing by and have a verified history of biting people too. All the complaints have fallen on deaf ears, yet a look at their website and its all about donations and fees for adopting dogs/cats. Same crowd receiving taxpayers money from Cork City Council to act as dog wardens for the city but won't even acknowledge or reply to complaints but are well able to respond to a flash of green.

Pit Bulls = Child Killers.

Some on here don't want to hear it,, maybe they change their minds if one of their kids is savaged to death..

Technically they are correct, but the comment is in severe bad faith.

Any dog could cause mortal injuries, but it's risk management.

Children can turn into terrible adults without proper nurture and yes, training. But, I can generally read humans (and I can't out run a dog).

A big powerful dog who takes a dislike to me, I get hugely damaged or killed.

A yappy little dog can hurt me, but more than likely they come out far worse.

It's owners that are the issue. If they can't look after them and ensure the safety of neighbours, then what? That's why people can't have nice things.

Technicaly they are not correct..

I'd say you go back to your own post, cuz you can't remember the last highlighted thing you've responded to in this thread. Sorry.

Moronic comment right there. I referenced the comment you made, you failed to acknowledge this and threw it back. I linked the comment you made and you throw it back again. If I send a screenshot, will that help?

If you're not willing to engage in good faith and your only interest is blindly defending killer dog breeds and their scumbag owners, then there is no point in having further discussion with you, as you can't even stand over your own comments.

Also owners of restricted breeds insisting on not using muzzles? Your thoughts?

I don't want extinction of any breeds.

Check my posts related to muzzles. I'm all up for it, all dogs in public should wear one. I do it on both of my dogs, even it's just one required to have it. Stupidity of restricted breeds list I guess.

Yes, we can all add pictures of dangerous PBs.

We can also add pictures of what happens when idiots who own them don't have control of them.

Random one from April in the UK. Plenty here too

If it causes harm or is a significant danger(like roaming free), then yes, that particular dog.

Just like these Labradors left these two kids, but anti pitbull people only ever see one breed doing everything wrong, no other breeds are ever at fault, when I have pointed out everything from Pomeranians to German Shepherds have killed people usually young kids make up the highest fatality statistics of dog attacks/bites. People who are any certain breeds keep saying Pitbull, again its a catch all term for multiple Bull breeds and alot of the time Pitbull attack ends up being some mutt with some sort of Bull breed/Mastiff genetics/look to them, much like the way certain terrorist attacks the perpetrators have a certain look to them but sure imagine trying to ban people of a certain culture in Ireland even when one of them beheaded 2 men or others attacked and killed people, banning then wouldn't happen. The killer in the case was a non national, the killer in the japanese student case was a non national, the killer in the Ashling Murphy case was too, are all non nationals dangerous then or is it Muslims which are dangerous given that in two cases the killers were Muslims, even the Gardai said one line of the Japanese students murder was possibly linked to terrorism. So do we start banning people then ? In reality banning doesn't work, the UK is a clear sign of that given they banned APBT's, F.Brasileros, D.Argentinos and J.Tosas in the 1990s, now despite the restrictions theres more APBT's than ever even when they were to be neutered as part of them being kept after being banned in the UK. The owners who would have likely kept the APBT breed moved on to other breeds like Cane Corso, Presa Canario, Am Bullys etc so now you'll see these much bigger breeds on FB etc being sold alot of which have their ears cropped something thats illegal in the UK unless for a medical condition same for tail cropping.

Social Media is partly to blame nowadays imo for people getting easy access to these dogs you only have to look at breeders/owners of dogs like Hulk the so called pitbull (some Mastiff breed x APBT )and id bet the majority of the likes of Am Bully breeders etc don't do BAER testing on pups etc, you only have to look at the dogs being bred to see owners are more concerned about how their dog looks vs how healthy the dog is mentally. Breeding for looks only leads to problems, like inbreeding to get desired attributes doesn't matter what you breed whether its dogs or something else sooner or later you'll have genetic problems like skin problems, deafness, cocker rage syndrome. A friend of mine had a Bull Terrier with what was basically like CRS and he was put down, he was only a pup but from 6months+ I think it was he became unpredictable and would be ok one min then pin you in a corner on the room behind a chair the next so my friend had no choice to have him put to sleep, she has kids and any one of them could have been a victim of an attack or her and her husband. Given she tried everything she could from training to getting him tested for all sorts, he wasn't a bad dog just wired wrong, for the time until he started showing those signs of aggression he was fine and even she knows its not the breed, and he came from a good home too it wasn't like he was picked off the street with her knowing nothing about him.

Lol, brilliant

Actually you did quote something else at the start and I thought I'm going crazy

And then you jumped to quote my other post right?

Expecting this. Yes owners should see problems. Regardless of breeds.

But, do you not think the dangers of big, powerful, aggressive dogs are more significant.

What should be done?

Dangerous so so much less often... Sorry but 😆
