Ok. Unfortunately there has been another dog attack and it was a pitbull.... Let me share this story because I want opinions...
On fathers day here in Arizona a Hispanic family was having a party in their backyard and say a pit bull walked into their back yard and attacked a 3 year old boy, grabbing him by the head. The family members say they all started to fight the dog to get him off the child. The child had stitches in his head and his thumb. That night or the following day the police found the dog in an alley shot multiple times.
Here are my thoughts....it may come off harsh but I think in these situations its a possible reality....
I think its possible this is the family dog... I find it odd that having a 3 yr old in the backyard you would leave the gate open?
I think its also odd that a pit bull would enter a yard and unprovoked attack a child...even if this was a wandering animal I feel something must have happened to lead to the attack.
I think the fact that the dog was found with multiple bullet wounds is odd and even if it attacked it is still illegal to shoot to kill and not report. I have a feeling it is possible a family member followed/chased/tracked it down and shot it...maybe a family member not legally allowed to be here or own a gun... I am in AZ and this tends to be a popular issue in crimes sorry to say.
I think these are possibilities, either way a child was hurt and now is going through a series of rabies shots, dog is being tested for rabies, and dog was shot and not reported which in itself is illegal.
