adult : worst : SHOULD IT BE ILLEGAL FOR FAMILIES WITH CHILDREN TO OWN PITT BULLS? [+] ballot by RunsWithScissors ACTIVE Sun Jul 22, 07 - Fri Apr 16, 10 July 13, 2007 Police say a 2-year-old boy was alone with the family’s pit bull for only minutes when he was attacked and sodomized by the dog, a family pet that had never before shown any signs of aggression. Lockport Police Detective Capt. Larry Eggert said the toddler had removed his own soiled diaper and asked to be changed just before the attack. His mother sent him into the living room to get a new diaper, Eggert said. The boy was alone with the dog for only a brief time, Eggert said. When the mother heard the boy scream, she walked into the living room and found the dog had mounted the child, Eggert said. The mother reportedly began yelling at the dog, which spooked it, causing it to run out the door and onto the porch, still attached to the boy. Neighbors saw what was happening and helped the mother beat the dog to get it off the boy, Eggert said. The pit bull, a 2-year-old named Bear, was impounded this week at the Niagara County SPCA and was said to be going to the Erie County shelter. The boy continues to recover at Women’s and Children’s Hospital in Buffalo, where he underwent surgery earlier in the week. Eggert said he’s heard the boy is doing better. The dog, which had been with the family since it was a puppy, was up-to-date on all its shots, including rabies, Eggert said. Now, investigators are looking at the question on everyone’s mind: What would motivate a family dog with no history of aggression to do something like this? Should it be illegal for families with children to own Pitt Bulls? Not just because of this incident, but because of their general behavior? Yes No It should be illegal for parents who leave toddlers alone with dogs to have kids Register to submit choices Ballot #116400 : SEE RESULTS Comment: Register to submit comments You may still vote without registration show your vote with comment?
