came home today after a 13 hour day and found that my wifes pit broke his chain and tried to eat my reg.catahoula male...... after catching him and putting him in a pen I spent the next two hours doctoring my dog. I would have ended the promblem but it would cost me a divorce I thought. after she came home and saw what happen she told me to do what I had to with him but by then I had cooled off . But if he so much as makes a mean look he is GONE.
I have 9 other dogs tied out and he didnt bother them.

Conquer or be conquered. It's a dog eat dog world. I know that didnt help, but they both apply. I'm of the opinion that there are no second chances with that stuff. You were lucky to find them in the middle of it this time.  Will you be so lucky next time?  If you value your animals, get rid of your wife's dog tonight. Do not hesitate on this. If you do, you will kick yourself forever over it.

Hope you cat heals up. Everyone is different on a deal like that. Do what you want but try to do whatever you can to make sure it doesn't happen again.

So blame the dog for equipment failure?  Are you sure he started it and not the cat? I have seen a few times were it a bulldog got loose and the cur dog was actually the one yo instigate the fight but just ends up on the loosing end most times..?.....just my thoughts.

X2 u don't really know if the cat or pit started it! For all u know he was just walking around saying hi to all the dogs and the cat got territorial. But if it was the pit for sure then do what u gotta do just make dang sure your gonna make the right decision! Like underdog just my thoughts

Hello Rowdy, sorry to hear about the incident, but knowing that was probably the 5mo. old pup out of my bloodlines, i can tell you he didn't start it, but would not back down either. His grandsire had a similar incident with a pit, only he was grown, he was protecting his master when the pit broke chain, cleared a fence, came for him and his owner. Needless to say how it turned out 'cause your pup is a decendant. Also his master at that moment was a young married lady, only out for some excercise walk/jog on public streets. The lady sent me this story, along with another one where he protected her 2yr.and 4yr. old sons from a snake, while he was less than six mos. 'bout like your pup.

Sorry to hear that Rowdy, but u already know how I feel about the out bloodlines here in Mo.
There bred to protect or fight. He is a very goodlookin dog and although he has been a loyal dog, its drolly just gonna get
worse.If it where me he would already be done because the thought of your grandson accidentally being
in the middle of them would be more than I could handle. Not sayin he would hurt your grandson on
purpose, but I know he loves being around those dogs and if he got caught in the middle of a fight it would
be tragic. I know how much you love that boy and that he's the most important factor in this scenario.
Just my opinion.

X2 even if the cat wasn't the pup i mentioned before, 'cause i know how your grandson took to that pup, and how that pup would fight to protect your grandson.

So what does you having a three year old grandson have to do with this situation? Wait, let me guess. He is a pitbull that got into a fight with another dog so you assume he will also jump on your grandson, I mean being a pitbull and all.
To me, it don't matter who started it. My dogs act totally different on the yard defending their territory than they do when it is time to hunt. You can't blame a "broken" chain for the accident. More than likely what happened is that the chain was worn thin of the bull snap came apart. Both of those issues go back to whoever is supposed to take care of the dogs not checking the equipment like they should.

I am with Underdog on this one...The cause is equipment failure. I own a game bred apbt and I am raising him to get along with my other dogs and all is well. They are friendly with each other so I am pretty relaxed about letting them run together. I also know what a pitbull is capable of so I am always around and watch for any behavior that can cause a problem and nip it in the bud. A lot of the times he is not the instigator but a pit can finish what starts...

I also keep my pitbull in his own kennel and have the latch as primary door lock but also have a dog snap so it can not open.


The root cause is failure to evaluate the condition of the chain and make repairs as needed...

just let that be a learning experience. Believe me I have made those mistakes before but I will keep a pit as long as I feel I need one... Just learning as I go...

I wouldn't get rid of the dog until I gave them a chance to get along...if it this incident is the cause of a rivalry then you might have to get rid of one...

I can't beleive what i'm reading/hearing on here about standing up for animal/dog rights vs. human/child rights...that sounds like alot of liberal PETA  b.s. crap.  I really like how others are so willing to risk someone else's offspring grandchild for the sake of a dog, really folks think before you speak.

Wilton,

I definitely am against PETA...I do think that you misunderstood me but I can see that I didn't make myself clear.

I am under the impression that the pit bull had an issue with the catahoula. I did not see it as a dog with human aggression problems...Any dog that shows human aggression problems of any kind should be dealt with accordingly especially a pitbull. I say especially a pit bull because once they fire up they tend to stay with it...Even though I do my best to raise my pit bull right he is under close supervision.

i would rather err on the side that puts my family and cur dogs safe. i will not tolerate dog/human aggression in a bulldog, i see it and the dog goes for a walk with a pistol. there was equipment failure, but for me, i dont want an animal at my place where if there is "equipment failure" all hell breaks loose.

how long have u owned the pit? u should know ur dogs inside and out. it is up to us as breeders and hunters to fully realize what kinda dog we have on the yard. if i walked up to u said a cross word and u slugged me in the mouth and we got into tussle, are u more prone to being dangerous to ur grand child or am i? it seems simple to me u were`nt there u dnt knw how it happened other then the fact one was a ur APBT assuming it was a straight well bred APBT. dogs are more like ppl then we give them credit for, u know if u disrespect me its gonna be on like donkey kong. if the dog showed human agression i say do what u have to, but the did`nt show any the way u talk. so 2 dogs got in a fight that u did`nt see so ur gonna down one and not the other because of breed right?
