In the local paper, sorry no link, theres an article about 2 pitbulls that got loose and went on the neighbors property and slaughtered his 4 goats, the neighbor who knew the dogs since they got them as puppies ran out to try and save his goats and he was attacked by one pit while the other killed the goats, the owner finally heard it ran out and was subsequently attacked by both his pitbulls and is in critical condition. The neighbor has been admitted but not in critical care.
The owners wife said they had both dogs from 7 weeks old a brother and sister and that they were always sweet loving dogs, she said the neighbor always just walked into their yard and never had any issue with the two pitbulls.
You hear the same story all the time from pitbull owners, it reminds me of the same story we heard about pedophiles and child abusers when we went to arrest them, the neighbors and family would say I would never have believed it, he was such a great guy.
