Swiss Girl Posted May 13, 2010 Share Posted May 13, 2010 (edited) has anyone considered that this may be the same pitbull with the blonde woman owner who disappeared with her dog after it attacked 2 older men in Tasmania on Anzac day? It just seems weird that there are 2 stupid woman owners of a pitbull looking dog. A LAVINGTON grandfather has told how he feared his whole jaw would be ripped off by an aggressive pitbull terrier during an unprovoked attack on Anzac Day afternoon.The dog that carried out the attack was described as a fawn-coloured pitbull terrier, the owner is a blonde haired middle aged woman edited to add newspaper quote Edited May 13, 2010 by Swiss Girl Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Snoopy21 Posted May 14, 2010 Share Posted May 14, 2010 Ummmm.....Lavington is in Albury NSW? Can I ask where they wre walking when the attack happened? Just so I know where to avoid for a while. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Loraine Posted May 14, 2010 Share Posted May 14, 2010 How the heck did I miss all this? Those poor dogs, and your poor Auntie. That has to be a heartbreaking thing to witness. I think I would be scared to walk my dogs again (maybe the dogs will now be too scared to go for walkies). I hope they catch the person who owns that nasty dog.

lovemesideways Posted May 14, 2010 Author Share Posted May 14, 2010 Ummmm.....Lavington is in Albury NSW?Can I ask where they wre walking when the attack happened? Just so I know where to avoid for a while. Update!The area this happened in was in North Hobart, and the beginning of the Joggers Loop. The botanical garden side. How the heck did I miss all this? Those poor dogs, and your poor Auntie. That has to be a heartbreaking thing to witness. I think I would be scared to walk my dogs again (maybe the dogs will now be too scared to go for walkies). I hope they catch the person who owns that nasty dog. Max is currently being walked in very short periods and so far he isn't showing any fear! Which is a very good sign !!!

lovemesideways Posted May 28, 2010 Author Share Posted May 28, 2010 So there had actually been Progress! The pitbull and owner have been found by the council!!! Currently the animal control people are building a case against the owner and her dog to take them to court. What I learned happened with the man who has 18 stiches, He was holding max, and the pitbull let go of Zack and attacked HIM! Latched onto his arm, He had to put max down so he could try and get the dog off his arm!! The feeling is the dog will Definitely be getting put down (after trying to kill 2 dogs and attacking a human I should think so) and hopefully the owner will suffer and HUGE fine. I will update when I get more news. Both Zack and Max are making progress and the Vet is very happy with how they're going so far (Will get some new photos soon to show you how they're going!)

iggy mum Posted May 28, 2010 Share Posted May 28, 2010 So glad to hear that Max and Zack are on the mend and the man who helped them is okay too. And I agree, I hope they throw the book at the attacking dogs owner, plus I hope she has to pay for all your Aunties vet bills too! Bloody mongrel!

Loving my Oldies Posted June 1, 2010 Share Posted June 1, 2010 Wonderful to see their bodies healing so well. What about their minds and your Aunty's? How is she travelling? I would imagine going for walks would be pretty stressful. One of my neighbours was attacked when she was walking her two small dogs. One of her dogs required huge operations, but today you wouldn't know anything had happened to him thank god. Because the dog lived just a couple of streets away and was subsequently declared a dangerous dog with all the attendant restrictions to its confinement arrangements, I was pretty worried for quite some time when taking mine out. It is to be hoped that with her dogs healing so well, she will be able to get out and enjoy her walks as before. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My aunty is going well, she has started obedience with Zack recently, he is scared of the other dogs but making progress which is awesome!!! Also has been taking them both for walks. ! Thanks again everyone for all the healing vibes, obviously they're working! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
