Attacked by three of their neighbor’s five pit bulls
PHUKET: A compensation complaint for a hospital bill totalling nearly 700,000 baht was filed with Wichit Police yesterday after a man was savaged in a vicious pit bull attack.
Benjarat Ekpaiboon’s 33-year-old son, Tiensak Ekpaiboon, was attacked by three of their neighbor’s five pit bulls around 8am on February 6.
“He’s been in hospital for almost three weeks now. Some of the wounds, like the ones to his face, chest and arm are better, but the deep wounds to his legs still need treatment, Mrs Benjarat told the Phuket Gazette today.
Mr Tiensak was still deciding whether he would prefer a skin graft to repair his leg wounds or if he would just leave them to heal naturally, Mrs Benjarat explained.
Her son was attacked by the pit bulls moments after they attempted to attack a woman in the area, Ms Benjarat said.
“Fortunately, the woman was able to use her purse and umbrella to fend them off. Though she did lose her purse,” Mrs Benjarat said. “She filed a complaint with the Wichit Police, too.”

The right to endanger the public ?
Pit Bulls are being shot and killed on a regular basis these days in order to protect law enforcement, the public or even livestock. What kind of pet have these people bred that leaves Our Children, loved ones and normal pets or livestock in such danger? We must have a weapon and plan to protect against these dangerous dogs just for normal day activities . Its not like We are on a african safari when Grandma walks to the mail box or Our children are just playing in the yard . Many of these Pit Bull advocates act as though they are entitled to a right that endangers the public. If You want to give these dangerous dogs the same rights as humans that can be Your personal choice get off the computer and move into the dog house !!

NEVER SHOWN ANY SIGNS OF AGGRESSION !
A pregnant Toledo woman was attacked by her "pit bull"-type dog this afternoon and sustained multiple bite wounds that required surgery.
She was taken by ambulance to Mercy St. Vincent Medical Center, said Lucas County Dog Warden Julie Lyle.
The condition of Maria Drake, 30, of Elm Street, Toledo, was not known late today as she was still in surgery on her right forearm, according to her husband, Jesse Drake, 24.
He said the 1 1/2 year old dog, who does not have a name, had never shown any signs of aggression and often played with their four children, ages 11, 7, 6 and 4. Mrs. Drake is 21 weeks pregnant with their fifth child. The fetus was not harmed during the attack, according to Mr. Drake.
He said that his wife told him that the dog attacked her when she went out in the yard where it was playing with their children. He said that his wife told him that the neighbor's children had been poking the dog with sticks through the fence and it was "riled up" and went after her. No one else was injured. . Lyle said the 71-pound dog was an unneutered red and white male. The dog warden tranquilized the dog before removing it from the yard, where it was hiding under a wood pile. Mr. Drake surrendered the dog to the pound, where it will be held for a 10-day quarantine period to see if it shows any signs of rabies and then it will be euthanized.
The dog bit Mrs. Drake on the left thumb, left inner thigh, left breast area and right forearm, Ms. Lyle said.

12 Year old may lose His ear after pit bull attack
(LOUISVILLE) -- A 12-year-old Louisville boy is recovering after a pit bull bit off half his ear. It happened Feb. 17 in the 8800 block of Running Fox Circle in Fern Creek. Now an investigation has been launched into whether or not the dog's owner should be held responsible. WAVE 3 Investigator Eric Flack has more.
Video football is all 12-year-old Brady Nagel can play these days after a pit bull ended his last real game in horrifying fashion.
"You had to touch the fence to score, and I was going towards the fence, and the dog started barking," Brady said. "So I turned around, and the dog just jumped over the fence and bit me."
The pit bull bit off half his ear without ever leaving the yard.
"The fence wasn't as high as he is," Brady's mom, Debbie said. "So the dog just leapt over, grabbed the ear, and brought it back into his yard."
Doctors re-attached the missing part of the ear, but it say it's not taking, so Brady may lose it. And the pit bull's owner, who refused to give us his name or come out of his house to talk to us, says he's not going to pay Brady's medical bills.
"You know I hate that the boy got hurt, but it's not my responsibility," the dog owner said.http://www.wave3.com/story/6131769/boy-may-lose-ear-after-pit-bull-attack

Nanny Dog ????
1915 call to ban vicious breed of dog.
"Gentlemen: I observe by The Washington Herald that the nine-year-old daughter of Thomas Hayes, of 2200 H street northwest, was seriously injured yesterday by a bulldog owned by Dr Norval Herbert, of 2145 H street northwest. It seems to me that this is becoming such a frequent occurrence that out government should take immediate steps to rid the city of this particular breed of dog. If you will remember, it was only a few months ago that a child was almost torn to pieces by one of these dogs on Columbia road, and in that case it was the pet dog of the household." 1915 Washington D.C.
