If you cannot include your dog as part of your family, do not get one. Dogs are pack animals and suffer greatly chained away from their family.

Dogs chained or penned outside are not appropriately socialized.

Dogs chained or penned outside are too often neglected; they do not received needed food, water, shelter, care or protection from the elements.

Dogs chained outside are so often ignored that their collars become embedded in their necks.

Dogs chained outside are frequently chained to areas where they have to defecated.

To help your chained dog come inside, help other chained dogs and create legislation to protect dogs from being cruelly chained:

How sad. Both owners should be held accountable for this atrocity. No way that puppy should have been chained outside all day with no one home. That person should not be allowed to have another dog......EVER!

What's the surprise?

Pitbulls are violent, dangerous animals.

[Shotzi21]

The article states state law blah, blah, blah. Lower township has a law that dogs cannot be chained more then 8 hours in a 24 hour period.

I personally don't believe in dogs being chained or left in pens. And in my opinion, the responsibility in this case goes to the owner of the pup. What a j€rk. I have to agree with scorp...the pup owner should never be allowed to have another dog.

Sooooo The pit bull did the puppy a favor????...Any lawyer will argue negligence on the party of outcome,not the party of circumstance.....Didn't the pit also bite a human????..This shows predisposition....Ask yourself one Question."Could the puppy have lived a long happy life chained up for a few hours as a puppy in it's 15 year lifespan....Mine Have.

pens or runs are one thing. chaining a puppy outside? why did you want the thing? were they out of garden gnomes?

[Long_Duk_Dong]

Blame the owner of the pup? A truly stoopid statement. The pitbull should have a bullet put in its head, its clearly a violent dog.

[spazcat]

can never get over the numbskulls with pitbulls. you can always tell the ones whose dogs are gonna be involved with something like this: they say "oh, their not aggressive its how you raise them". those owners should be fined out the wazoo and banned from ever having another animal much less dog!

I never condoned the chaining. Owner is a :: fool ::, but is not responsible for a piece of craap pitbull eating a puppy. Just one bullet.

[Long_Duk_Dong]

The breeding should be banned. They are rubbish. And all you clowns say its the owner and not the dogs.....why do you think you cant have a pet grizzly.

I am with Shotzi on this on. Skum describes the pitbull owner to a tee. Pitbulls are the Muslims of society. Kill first.

I for one no first hand of pit attacks , my yorkie was attacked while we were out or a walk , then i look up i noticed a person walking a pit , and all sudden he broke from his lease and started charging so fast i didnt have time to pick up my dog , he got him by the throat and shook him so firece , the screems were so bad , some how a passer by got him free , 1500.00 later and so much care he made it , he is so affraid and tiimed now , but he fine , they did hold the dog till they verified from there vet he had shoots and never attackted before ,once the letter was recieved they gave the dog back to the owner (they were on vacation) but i was told the next time it happens the dog will be put down god i hope next time it isnt a child. I did get 400.00 from them
so if you see me walking my dog sometimes in a stroller ,cause he can walk far you will know y

I walked and biked up and down Washington Street that week many times, own a house there, and never saw a chained puppy. Not saying it wasn't chained often, just that I never saw or heard one.
I am so tired of having to carry pepper spray to walk my own dogs. Pitts should be banned so other dogs and people can walk the streets without fear. Pitts agressiveness has nothing to do with the owner, it's the nature of the breed.

Just dont buy me a pitbull. Trash.

[capemay08204]

I do not understand why some people blame the owner of the puppy tied up. The pit bull owner tied her dog to a TRASH can. What did she think the dog would do???Oh yeah, the pit would not pull over a trash can! YEP, well mannered Pit. The owner of the pit was trespassing on private property whether it was rented or owned by the puppy's owner. Had the puppy been in distress, call the police. They are only a few blocks away. They can untangle the dog and then determine if it was "abused" by being tied out. "Good Samaritans" with pit bulls are no good for anyone. So sorry that the German Shepherd had to die a tragic death at the teeth of a pit Bull. Send these dogs to Afghanistan where they can be used for what they are good at. Killing!

National Pit Bull day? Is that where all pit bulls can maul children, other dogs and attack cops without repercussion. Just stooooopid.
