it's also uncool how they just have to say that the hero was a
breed "also known for vicious attacks".


Very true. It was totally unnecessary.

but still, overall, i'm glad missy saved the day

Can't resist. We just adopted two

We, too, have had a spate of
genuinely competent and
responsible people coming
in to look at some of our
bull breed dogs. Where've
they been all these months!?!?!?!

Oh well, better late than
never...

Oh, and that was a gratifying
story to read. I've long felt
that the only thing GOOD thing
about the fighting ability of
Pit Bulls is that some Pit Bull
or other might one day prove
useful in a situation like this.

Of course, the situation (a) should
never have happened
in the first place and (b) might
have been dealt with better had
more experienced people been
around to deal with it. But in
the heat of an out-of-control
emergency, with no better
solution in sight and time
severely of the essence, Missy
came through against two dogs
that were both no doubt bigger
than her. Good for Missy.

Bulllyphilia seems to be like an infection with a long incubation
period. After it takes hold, people seem to be willing to make all
kinds of sacrifices.
John, I think of you often when we have questions. There's no ....
competent, ...organized (?) rescue at hand. I just found a woman, not
too far away, who breeds and rescues. Hear good things about her. Just
invited her to visit our two remaining PBs.
