Two 8-month-old pit bulls that were loose in Nanaimo attacked several children, severely injuring at least one. Other people that came to aid the children were also injured.

The children were playing in a yard at the house of one of their friends. The dogs were from somewhere else in the neighborhood and had been cited for being at large previously.

One of the owners of the dogs came and got the dogs but did not stick around. The news interviewed the other owner, a Dangerhair that looked to be in her late 40s or early 50s. While she was devastated at what her dogs had done, she said to the reporter, "People are saying, look at this from the prospective of a parent, well, these dogs are my kids, too," and then she broke down crying.

It was later reported both dogs were euthanized, as there have been other incidents prior to this one, and due to the severity of the injuries the one particular child sustained.

To the dangerhair dog owner I would have to say, "If these dogs were your KIDS, you did a lousy job of raising them. Thank heavens you didn't spawn any of your own."

Shitbulls are actually worse. None of those are suitable pets, but also, none of them are trained to attack things larger and more dangerous than themselves with no provocation whatsoever. Even wolves have some social sense and sense of self-preservation. (I've heard that wolf blends are more dangerous than actual wolves but am not sure why.)

What makes this stranger is wolves are technically the same species as domestic dogs. Dogs are basically wolves with Williams syndrome. Read somewhere a dog's brain stops maturing earlier than a wolf's brain.

Most domestic dogs are dumber than wolves but some breeds are highly intelligent, like German shepherds and pinschers. Shepherds look remarkably like wolves, too. But border collies and poodles and retrievers are also highly intelligent and look pretty doggy. I'm not sure if they've compared IQs to wolves, but wolves are probably on par with the smarter dogs.

Dogs probably evolved to keep more puppylike looks because cuteness is endearing. They're not all total tard dogs though. Of course lots of dogs have the super friendliness trait too.

That said, I wouldn't really compare (most) dog behavior with a deletion syndrome.

Don't know how true it is, but from what some old timers have told me about wolf/dog mixes is that; "You can predict how a dog will act because it's a dog. You can predict how a wolf will act because it's a wolf. But it's fifty/fifty on how a wolf-dog will act."

Two "dog" things that are traced back to wolf "puppy" things are barking and licking. Wolves tend to only vocalise when howling (long distance "I'm here fuck off"), or snarling/yips when establishing dominance. Barking is very puppyish, "Pay Attention to ME!" behavior. Licking is generally submissive, with puppies doing the majority among wolves (because they're submissisve to everybody), that carried over to humans.

>got a cute pup
>raised him right
>still uncontrollable killer
>free to good home
"our sweet boy" lol wtf is wrong with you.

That's what gets me about this shit. When I was growing up, most of the time when you saw shit like someone trying to give away a dog, it was because an apartment dweller had gotten a hyper active dog that chewed up their furniture and they needed someone in the suburbs or country to take it somewhere it could run free. Now it's like a fucking request to transfer Hannibal Lecter to an out of state prison, but he's still a sweet boy.

New owner meeting the dog be like:

I'm not. Just referring to how friendly domestic dogs are compared to their wild cousins. People with Williams are known for being really friendly.

That makes a lot of sense. If you combine the generally predatory behavior of wolves with the lack of fear of humans of dogs, that seems like a potentially dangerous mix. Still, at some point, 100,000+ years or so ago, some wolf walked up to a bunch of humans around a fire and someone decided to throw him some meat. Or did a pack of wolves and humans just cooperatively hunt at some point and shared? It's kind of a mystery how they went from purely wild animals to domestic animals and I doubt it was just an instant transformation.

Incidentally, wolves in Europe were feared in the Dark and Middle Ages, and would sometimes descend in packs on villages and devour humans. This never really occurred in North America. In the 1400s at some point they literally ran wild in Paris and ate a bunch of priests.

Probably has to do with large swathes of forrest being destroyed ruining the habitat of prey. This pushes them in closer and closer contact with humanity.

There was a lot of plagues going on round then which cut swathes through the population of Europe so maybe a sharp drop in human numbers emboldened the wolves?

They were probably just overgrown gypsies

If you are getting a dog fighting dog for something other than dog fighting, then maybe the problem is not with the dog

Humans took injured/weak wolves and reinforced those weak traits until you got the dogs we know today.

I remember hearing that the massive, large scale European warfare (for its time) meant that weak or starving wolves got access to free human meat, which encouraged them to go after live humans.

This one image of a shitbull smiling over a cat it just murdered is enough to make me want to slowly disembowel it.

(I've heard that wolf blends are more dangerous than actual wolves but am not sure why.)

I commented in another thread just the other day what I had learned from one of my favorite young adult books. The same book, "Julie of the Wolves", is where I learned that a wolf that is half-dog will fight a wolf with more tenacity than a full-blooded wolf. It's strange the tidbits that we can recall so many years later.

Speaking of memories I have to feel so bad for people that survive these attacks, having to go through the rest of their lives traumatized. I could only imagine how difficult it must be when we're hard-wired to love and care for dogs, to go through such a horrific event.

 

[Mourning_Cloak]

but we are legally not allowed to deny them residence,

Isn't this not true though? "ESAs" are not real service animals.

And the vast majority of pit bull owners are garbage people who don't do any of that shit.

I'm a firm believer that at least 50% of all dog owners shouldn't own dogs, or at least are irresponsible. There is no 100% correct way to train a dog but there are objectively things one must do regarding basic training and ownership: leash training, potty training, keeping them from jumping all over people, keeping them contained, etc. They usually don't or can't provide them consistent, basic veterinary care. Way too many people are just OK with letting their dogs free roam outside all the time.
