So a Chihuahua attacked my Pitbull.
 

Wish I had got the video of it. The neighbors little pain in the ass ran right up to my pitt and tried to attack her. My dog snapped back but the little fucker came at her three times. I kinda kicked the Chihuahua and she ran back to her house.


How crazy is that?


:helpme

about right.. and if the dog went after the smaller rat-like one, they have this weird high pitch scream that will stop a dog 6x the size, dead in its tracks

i actually think it is pretty crazy that you feel it's ok to kick a little dog.

Lesser of two evils my friend.

Two days ago my girlfriend's cat tried to attack my new Rottweiler. What saved the cat's life is that I kicked it across the room and grabbed the dog. Not kick as in field goal from the 50 yard line, but kick as in instep of the foot against the cat and more or less "throw" it out of the way with my foot. If I hadn't have done that, the cat would be dead right now.

Moving a dog away with your foot and trying to put one through the uprights are two different things though.. I'm sure he was doing more of the first and none of the second.. Bad choice of words.


....surely? :winkwink:

It was more like a push away than a real kick. I posted cuz you only here about attacks the other way around.


My dog was on a leash but the other was not.

:2 cents::2 cents:

i kinda get what you are saying but if an owner knows their pitbull is so ready to kill that they would feel the need to kick someone elses chihuahua out of the way to save it's life, that's a pitbull that needs a muzzle. not a chihueahua that needs kicking.

Sorry, but no high pitched scream is going to stop any large dog I've ever worked with. If anything, it will sound like the deal wail of prey and fire a dog up all the more.

I don't know about dogs with very little prey drive, you might be right in that case.

I owned two pits. The MPs shot Naked and I had to give away Klaus because he was lost without Naked.
(Didn't need him loosing it on my 9 year old son)

About that piece of shit Chihuahua, would have been nice if your pit snatched it's ass up to the point it had to be euthanized or turned it into hamburger meat.

I got your back 100% Turbo!

:1orglaugh

My dog has that weird high pitch scream AND she can run just as fast backwards as she can forwards.

Congrats on the new puppy I know you were having age/health problems with your other 2.

You're kidding me, right? Did you even read what she posted?

I think you've been blinded by the word Pitbull here. Dogs fight, it happens. When one dog greatly over powers the other, the outcome is going to be pretty messy.

In this case, the little dog that was not on a leash tried to attack a dog much larger that was on a leash. What do you think the bigger dog is going to do? It's going to fight back. That's what dogs do. The best way to avoid this kind of situation is to keep little dogs on leashes too, not muzzle big dogs that are going to defend themselves.

Little dogs and cats are stupid. Like I said, my girlfriend's cat literally walked right up to my dog the other day and started swinging claws, trying to bite and hissing. Is that the dog's fault too?

Small dog syndrome. Intolerable behavior is looked upon as cute because of the dogs small size …….


.

Yeah my male had to be put down with bone cancer about 6 months ago. He was 11 years old though and lived a long, happy life.

The new dog is just over a year old and comes from a grand champion AKC and working dog line. He's going to be a beast.

it's bizarre man. if i haven't seen it over and over again, id have to agree with you.

the sound is brutal.

Weird. I hate little dogs so don't have much experience with them.

you can fuck right off.

no, i'm not kidding.

of course i fucking read what she posted. if you want to make this about reading comprehension, i can play that fucking game.

i've owned a pit bull. he would rather roll over and get a belly scratch over being aggressive.

and you are insane if you think a small dog owner should be responsible for a large dog such that they need to go out of their way to keep a small dog away from a big dog.

little dogs are no more stupid than big dogs. it's common knowledge the beagle is considered to be one of the smartest if not the smartest breeds.

As a Chihuaha owner I have to agree.
One day I was walking my chihuaha and my mini pincher at the same time.
The leash the chihuaha was on broke with the result of my chihuaha attacking a big dog.
I could not come to close as I was also holding the mini pincher who wanted to attack the big dog as well. It all happened in a split second.
The owner of the big dog made the correct decision by "kicking" my chihuaha.
He did not want to hurt it but he just wanted to move it away from the big dog as the big dog would have probably killed it.
I was able to gain control of my chichuha outside of the reach of the big dog and thanked the man big time for kicking my dog.
He made the correct decision in a split second saving the life of my dog.
:2 cents:

hypocrite.

My dog was on a leash the other wasn't we were in MY yard.

I wish for you to have your head snatched off by a pitbull while your family cries in fear.
Or cancer in your ass. You deserve nothing less.

i got that. after you added it.

but i am very clear on my stance. i am responsible for my fucking dog and you are responsible for your fucking dog. kick my dog and we have a problem.

I've had dogs my whole life. From Shelties, labs, Rotts. I've never had a single dog that would roll over and allow its self to be attacked by another dog. It's not in their nature.

I have a large dog now. He is very gentle with people, kids, other dogs and even cats. He will defend himself each and every time if another animal tries to attack him. It's his nature, they're animals. I keep my dog leashed and under my control at all times. It's my responsibility.

If an unleashed dog approaches my dog, I will put myself between the two. If the unleashed dog tries to start a fight, I will do my best to break it up and keep everyone unharmed. If my dog ends up doing a lot of damage to an unleashed dog that is attack him, that's the unleashed dog's owners fault. Period and full stop. That's how the law sees it too, by the way. Keep your dog leashed and I'll keep my dog leashed and there won't be a problem.

As for the beagle being the smartest dog, it's not even in the top 10.

No worries. If your dog comes in my yard and attacks my dog I won't try and save it. I'll just let my dog rip it to shreds. :2 cents:

i used the roll over to describe the general nature of my pit bull. my current dog is trained to not be aggressive at all and will not retaliate against aggressive dogs. if my dog getsloose, i am still responsible for my dog. and it was my irresponsibility that allowed my dog to get lose to begin with.

just like it would be irresponsible to not have trained dog.

you will never have to worry about me not being responsible for my dog's actions. ever.

I 100% do not walk my pitt with out a leash.


:2 cents::2 cents::2 cents:

i'm not saying poor chihuahua here. the chihuahua got lose and that's the responsibility of the owner. but to have a dog on the street that would just tear another dog to shreds for simply being lose is also something that needs to be addressed.

i get where you are coming from. and i appreciate your clarification that you simply scooted the dog away.

nevertheless, i think a command for your dog in that situation is more appropriate.

The command for my leashed dog in my front yard should be what?

Just not into little pussy lap dogs that are owned by pussy punk coward guys.
Shame it wasn't my pits, they would have terrorized that Chihuahua until it was dead. The neighborhood cats, birds and ants would be eating the remains as we speak. :1orglaugh

pussy punk coward guy?
How about showing your real pic instead of pretending to be a woman?
I bet you dont even own or could handle a pit. You lack personality.
Grow up troll.
:)

can i see your pitbull? :helpme

i see what you are saying. i stand corrected.

here's perhaps what i should have asked.

was there a better way to handle the situation than for you to pre-emptively strike an ~8 pound dog prior to what you assume would be an attack on your ~50 pound attack dog?

honestly.

a lot of dog owners in here. i'm willing to be wrong here but in all my experiences, a small dog doing that is going to run up to a point and stop. it is not going to just run up on your dog and start ripping its throat out.

and there's the problem with pit bulls.

it's not the dog's fault he's owned by someone with this sort of mentality.

This has happened 4 times with my male GSD. He's pretty tolerant of it minus a very deep growl, but I'm not.

my ex.. Chihuahua, Pomeranian? Dogs have more attitude than God, reminded me a LOT of pit bull behaviour/pack mentality

funniest shit in the world taking it for walks :1orglaugh

Don't get me wrong, I don't advocate aggressive dogs at all.

A child, maybe 5 or 6 years old snuck up behind us in the park and startled me and my dog by smacking him on the ass. His response? Big kiss in the face for the kid.

A few weeks back a female pit was lose in the park with her owner trying to chase her down. She ran right up to us and her and my dog proceeded to have a roll-around-and-lick fight until everyone was covered with slobber. Not even a hint of an aggressive response.

Same goes with the cat. The dog is interested in the cat but not aggressive. He just sits there looking at it. The incident we had the other day, the cat actually ran over to the dog and flat out attacked it. His response was to fight back.

I'm heavily involved in Schutzhund training with this dog right now. I paid good money for a dog with a protective nature that is absolutely not aggressive but on the same hand totally fearless. When it comes to fight or flight, he's going to fight every time.

Dogs are pretty good at reading body language from other dogs. They know what the situation is. The original poster used the word "attacked" so we have to take that at face value. Barking and acting bad ass is not attacking. :2 cents:

I wish I had got video of it that little fucker charged my dog three times it was attacking my dog. I knew people wouldn't believe it.

i see what you are saying. i get the impression we are on the same page just coming at it from different angles.

i'm not really trying to point fingers in this thread, other than at the retard who thinks its cool that his pitbulls can annihilate dogs 1/5 their size.

i see now that turboangel was in a tough situation, she was in her yard, with her dog on a leash and she scooted another dog out of the way to protect it and i think if i were the other dog's owner i would ultimately appreciate that but probably also be very dissapointed in myself for not having my dog under my control and putting her in that situation.

yeah, it took me a bit but i get it now. i do think that the chi had a high probability of stopping short though.

i have a bit of that problem.. my dog is a corky terrier mix.
got her off the streets of Compton.
she is the nicest dog ever, however she is fucking fierce when there are other dogs.
friend of mine brought over his bigger dog and i let them run loose, they talked but i could tell there was tension.
all of a sudden all hell broke loose, they were really at its other throats, i finally broke it off (not easy to do, these dogs were going at it, putting your hand out was like getting close to a chainsaw snap snap snap) but my dog got its ass kicked, found out later her ear was bleeding and she had a bite mark in the scalp...
i thought dogs work out shit like this and get over it.. apparently not.

took me awhile lol

but you'll wanna watch this.. think same breed same problem

:1orglaugh

You've cleary been testing this theory. What happens if the dog is 7x the size, or 8x the size? Or perhaps even bigger?

Does it also work on Cats? Or, any other Animals?

Is it measured in weight? Or is it more to do with height? Or perhaps a combo of Height + Length = the size of the dog.

they should call him the pussy whisperer, bet he gets more ass than a toilet seat.

my dog is like one of those, she must be sending out this signal which says i am nervous and i will attack.. Perhaps there is history i dont know about but i have also heard Corgis are sometimes just not friendly with other dogs..

Awww,you need a hug princess ? :1orglaugh
Priceless to see pussy pat's female face after seeing his/her Chihuahua's body parts floating in the pool.
Lets not dismiss the seagulls swooping in, tearing off bits and pieces of floating meat. :1orglaugh

Life is very good, especially when it's at the expense of a coward.

We'll conduct business tomorrow, okay my friend. :)

A friend of mine has an aunt that has a mini dachshund. That little bastard hates everyone and bites everyone that comes over. I was over there once, just standing in the yard talking to someone and the dog ran over, jumped up and bit my fingers. He is so bad they have to lock him up whenever anyone comes over.

If he were a bigger dog, animal control would take him away, but since he is small and the bites don't do any real damage everyone laughs it off.

sounds like a reverse situation of David and Goliath, like if David was the tyrant and Goliath was righteous.

I've never heard that at any point in my life and our trainer is world renowned in the working dog community & so are many who come to our kennel. Labs, some Rotts, Malinois, Border Collies, and GSD's are the only breeds they ever talk about with very high regard when it comes to intelligence. The rest they chalk up to "amateurs thinking obedience is intelligence". I just looked up your allegation & they're ranked 72nd.. IIRC, that's below pits and many other pretty dumb breeds.

If any dog is aggressive towards myself, my girlfriend/family, or my dogs, then that is the fault of either a) the owner, or b) that dog. If my dogs eat it for dinner(which I absolutely would try to avoid), then it shouldn't have been a moron and its owner shouldn't have been either. I absolutely despise dog violence, but the two times a dog has went after my male GSD(one time being a boxer - another being a pit), I let him show them who's boss then pulled away(neighbor's dogs.. they had to know who alpha was or it would've happened again).

Size has nothing to do with intelligence so your point there is pretty spot on, but there are very few small breeds that are intelligent. The smallest would probably be a border collie & they're fairly "medium" in the grand scheme of things. Yorkies are hit & miss with average intelligence.
