    Pit Bull Kills Toddler in West Virginia
    May 18, 12:36 PM (ET)
    HUNTINGTON, W.Va. (AP) - A pit bill that had once bitten a person fatally mauled a young girl before being subdued by firefighters using a fire extinguisher, officials said.
    The girl, who was 2 or 3 years old, was pronounced dead at a hospital following the attack Tuesday at the dog owner's home, police Sgt. Dan Underwood said. Her name was not released.
    "The girl, her mother and at least two other people were apparently hanging out on the house's porch," Underwood said. "The homeowner apparently told them all to stay out of the house where the dog was."
    It was not known what provoked the dog.
    Huntington firefighter Jason Price said the dog was wild-eyed and the hair on the back of its neck was raised, and that it rammed the door like a bull.
    "Hollywood couldn't have made this dog look more evil," he said.
    The pit bull's owner, who also was not identified, had posted several "beware of dog" signs and was keeping the dog inside the house because it had previously bitten another person, said Debbie Young, office manager for Huntington-Cabell-Wayne Animal Control.
    "A lot of people are under the impression that once they put those warning signs, they are in the clear. ... They are responsible for that animal," Young said.
    No charges have been filed, authorities said Wednesday.
    Young said animal control officials will ask a judge to order that the dog be destroyed.

    What a shame...but remember, it's the OWNER.. although I definately agree Pits do seem to have a propensity for attacking with no provocation. Weren't they bred this way originally, to use the strong jaw to kill?? Ive seen a few that were really sweet dogs, just don't quite trust them. Ill take my Golden's and Lab anyday! Even if they will open the door for a burgalar!!

    They'er like all you drunk boater types on this site: these defective canines are a danger to us all.
    what a jack ass statement.... :devil: :devil:
    i do feel terrible about the toddler and would agree that the dog that bit needs to be put down, but you cant say we need to bar the continued breeding of this type of dog. anytime a ppit bull type dog does anything it is going to get alot of attention because of the stereotyping that is associated with the breed.

    Guess the dog has two strikes now....let's wait for a third.
    Afterall, it's the owner - not the dog, right?

    I do agree the owner is responsible for the dogs actions, but that dog should have been put down after the first bite. Mines bit a kid and I had him put down, cause after that first one, there will be another. Mine was boxer/Pit mix. Now, the phrase "Kill all Pitbulls" is wrong cause there are a bunch of other breeds that bite or kill but don't get the coverage from the news. They just need the proper training and love that you would give any other dog. They were breed to fight, but don't have to be used that way. Bull dogs, english or american, staffenshire Terriers( pitbulls), sharpia(sp?), Akitas, Basenjis, etc. were breed for some hunting or fighting purpose. So get rid of the dog, or regulate the owner. Both are possible. Do one breed, do the rest, which is completely crazy..............................Just my .02

    Pit Bulls make a good story line. If it was Lassie it wouldn't be in the news.

    It's probably a sweet dog that is misunderstood.
