Forced to stab a Pit Bull mix
HIALEAH (CBSMiami) - A sixty-eight-year-old Hialeah man says he was forced to stab a Pit Bull mix who was attacking him and his cat inside his home because, "I could have been killed if I didn't do it."
Lucio Molina told CBS4's Peter D'Oench, "That was the feeling. The dog could have killed me. Look at my hands with these cuts and bandages. He attacked me. I tried to knock him on the head. I had to stab him. That is what the police officer said. If you didn't do that, he was going to kill you."
"I could have been killed if I didn't do it. I could have been killed if I didn't defend myself," said Molina

Its All How You Raise Them ??
What happened to Gavin?
My boyfriend Greg had a pitbull named Bexar for 6 in a half years. He raised him from a pup and Bexar was a VERY well behaved dog and listened to everything Greg would tell him. He and I got together over 2 years ago, moved in with eachother and Bexar came too. I instantly fell in love with Bexar. He was my "sweet boy". Would give u kisses for hours, even smiled at us everytime we walked in the door. I got pregnant in April 2011 and gave birth to our son Feb. 2012. Everyone in my family was very concerned about Bexar. We INSISTED that he would never hurt anyone, ever! (a person that is. Cats and other animals were a different story). Our son’s name is Trenton. Bexar was GREAT with Trenton. (as we just knew he would be). Trenton just started crawling in September 2012. We would let him crawl over to Bexar, pat him on the head, play with his ears, let Bexar give him kisses, ect. Bexar would even sleep in front of his crib. He had been around kids his whole life. Family, nieces and nephews, friends kids of all ages. Saturday November 10th, 2012 my mom came to my house to hang out and visit and brought my little cousin. (he is 5). Gavin has stayed with us MANY times and always loved to play with Bexar. Gavin was there all day playing with everyone, including Bexar. A few more people came over (probably about 10 total). Everyone was in the backyard socializing and Greg and I were inside trying to put Trenton to sleep. The backdoor was open and we hear everyone start SCREAMING. LOUD. Bexar lunged at Gavin, right infront of everyone and he had him by the face. There was about 8 people around, in arms reach. This fact is very crucial, bc I have talked to MANY people about this and a lot of the times they say that they would never leave their children “alone” with the dog. Gavin was far from being alone when this attack happened. It took 4 grown men to try and get Bexar off of him and they still couldn’t do it. Greg ran out there and pried Bexars mouth off of Gavins face and we are very blessed and grateful that Gavin is still with us today.
Gavin was rushed to the hospital, where he was transported to Texas Children’s due to his injuries being very serious. He has had MULITPLE surgeries on his face and jaw and will need more throughout the years. Bexar barely missed his temple, barely missed his eyeball, and barely missed the main artery in his neck. Greg and I took Bexar and had him put down that night.
We felt very strongly that Bexar would NEVER do this. EVER. We had been through MANY arguments about "it's all how you raise them" ect. I know a lot of you do feel like it is how you raise them and my goal is only to educate you a little bit more about the Breed in hopes that such a tragedy does not happen to one of your loved ones like it did us. I would not wish the pain that our family has gone through on my worst enemy, and most importantly the pain and suffering that it has put on our sweet Gavin.

A Father Speaks the Truth about Dangerous Myths
(A Father Speaks the Truth about Dangerous Myths, Please stop the lies that cause death. Our hearts hurt for this Families loss ) If they could see what my son looked like when I had to say goodbye to him, they would instantly shut their ignorant mouths....the whole "it's not the breed, it's how you raise them" line of thinking is exactly why my son is dead...I bought into the bullshit line and I'm kicking myself in the ass every day for not doing the research...inform as many people as possible or it will happen again and again.

An 80-year-old South Carolina double-amputee
HARLEYVILLE, S.C. -- An 80-year-old South Carolina double-amputee has died from his injuries after he was dragged from his wheelchair and attacked by four dogs, authorities said Tuesday.
Carlton Freeman of Harleyville was driving his motorized wheelchair on May 8 when he was attacked, said Maj. John Garrison, a spokesman for the Dorchester County Sheriff's Department.
An incident report said Freeman told authorities that he was pulled from his wheelchair during the attack in the community about 50 miles northwest of Charleston. He said dogs were biting him and pulling on his clothes.
Coroner Chris Nesbit said Tuesday that Freeman, who had both legs amputated at the knee from an injury years ago, died Sunday of the injuries in the dog attack.
"Upon my examination of Mr. Freeman, it is a wonder that this gentleman was able to hang on as long as he did," Nesbit said in a statement. "He had bites and lacerations from his legs to the top of his head. This is very sad story, but even worse that Mr. Freeman was basically helpless to the attack, due to being a bi-lateral amputee.

These Dogs Do Not Have To Be Trained To Kill They Have Been Bred To Kill !!
So far this year the pit bull type dog has killed 12 of the 13 fatal dog attack victims in the U.S. All of these deaths in a span of only 121 days . On average someone is killed by a pit bull type dog every 10 days. How can anyone say these dogs are no different than other dogs. 12 out of 13 deaths by pit bull type dogs. Breed danger is real there is no media hype, these dogs do not have to be trained to kill they have been bred for that.

Pit Bull advocates cry media hype
Pit Bull advocates cry media hype while I see more and more media suppression. Knowing at lot of people that have been attacked by a pit bull or know someone that has been severely mauled for which there is no news report. I also notice many stories which are likely the damage of a pit bull but suppress breed type. There is no media hype and actually lack of We should be outraged that one breed type of dog kills every 10 to 15 days. Why do pit bull advocates worry only about media reports and not about reducing the mauling and killing ?

This is My pit bull advocate tip for the day
Pit Bull owners You have chosen the most likely to maul or kill breed/type of dog. You have the biggest responsibility not only to keep your dog secure but to educate others that own these dogs about that responsibility . Spreading the nanny dog myth, media hype myth, coconuts kill more myth, they have to be trained to attack myth and so on is hurting Your cause when people believe these myths innocent lives are lost. When innocent lives are lost BSL becomes the only solution. So stop the myths and the breeding if You care about Your pit bull . It is Your actions that bring BSL . This is My pit bull advocate tip for the day.
