Default Beagle mix attacks Pit Bull and owner

Beagle Attacks Pit Bull, Owner - News Story - WHIO Dayton


Well, at least the media actually reported it as it was this time. I feel bad for the Beagle mutt, even if it was aggressive, it was the fault of his owner he was loose..

What a shame. Another one, unfortunately, bites the dust because of a neglectant owner who does not bother to safely confine or leash their dog. When will people learn.

It's maddening when any dog gets injured due to the criminal neglect of their owners.
I wish I could shake the beagle/mix's owners into 'shaken baby' syndrome and yell "WHAT DID WE LEARN FROM THIS? YOU IDIOTS"
But, that is neither feasible or logical.

I too am glad that they reported it correctly.
I'm very tired of the big "power breeds" being the bad guys when the aggression was drawn out by an unleashed loose dog.
You should be able to walk your dog or ride it down a street paid by your taxes and not deal with a dog fight.

Rant! Rant! Rant!!!!
And, yes...I've seen a few beagles with D/A issues, surprises me everytime but they are out there

The beagle bit the Pit Bulls' owner, too. That is why she let go, she was restraining her dog while the beagle was biting him, then the beagle bit her hand - which made her let go of her dog..

I don't care what the breed is.. Be it 5lbs or 100lbs, it makes no difference because someone/thing is going to get hurt..


OH, and the beagle owner is trying to say that the male Pit Bull ran up on his porch, pulled his beagle 60 some feet unto the road, and proceeded to maul him.. BS

A crappy situation all around but I am also glad it was reported in the media.

So glad to see 'not the pit bull's fault' in there.

I am very glad to see that the tide is turning in the media that for once the stereo type has not been blamed

Oh sure, when it's not at fault, then "pit bull" is a breed
I don't really blame the media as much as I blame the audience. The media is a business that puts out what people want to buy/believe.
No one (other than us) cares that a pit bull didn't attack, they want to hear more bad things about the thing they've decided to hate.
