Pit bulls kill young cancer patient's Make-A-Wish horse

Pit bulls kill miniature horse owned by 3-year-old cancer patient. The story is from Amarillo, Texas, and the horse was a gift from Make-A-Wish. The sheriff was able to capture one dog, but the other escaped.

Awwww.... how cute! Pit Bulls are so wonderful and loving pets. They would never hurt a fl.... HEY KILLER. LET GO OF THAT CANCER KIDS MINI HORSE! NO, YOU LET GO OF HIS JUGULAR! STOP CHEWING ON THE CANCER BOY KILLER! BAD DOGGY!

Ahh, yet another example that shows that pit bulls are a vicious creature and deserve a single bullet to the cranium.

That is so sad. The family had enough to deal with before this. The Dad is very lucky to have the tree handy to climb into.

Waiting for a pitbull enthusiast to come on here with..

"now if a pair of terriers did this, everyone would act SO differently!!"

R2D2 - I wasn't even eating or drinking, and yet still nearly choked when I read your comment. HILARIOUS!

Thanks for making my day funnier. You're a true pal.

you cannot blanket stereotype all pit bulls as dangerous monsters... just about any dog can be vicious. I have seen great danes, german shepard's, rotts, doberman pincers, that would tear you to shreds. Its the training, I saw Red Man's (a rapper) pitt bull on dog whisperer (my wife loves that show) and he actually used that dog to break over-agressive dogs and bring them under control. Its the teacher, not the student.

You're full of it Blaine.

If people have got to do something to make them feel like a men, do something that doesn't endanger your community.

I don't care how gentle you claim properly raised and trained pits can be, if an unrestrained one ever approaches me, he's getting that bullet in the cranium that R2D2 mentioned earlier.

Keep your damn dogs restrained if you don't like it.

So if some pits are bad, we say all of them are. But if some humans are bad, why don't we say all human's are bad. I hate the stereotype of this dog, I owned one until I bought my house and the house insurance would not let me have her. Great dogs, great with kids, and very loyal!

That's because when the pit goes nuts(it will) and kills one of your new neighbor's kids, they would be the ones forking out the dough.. They know enough about these dogs to say "HELL NO".. and so then should we!

I can't tell you how much I love your blog.

Well, welcome to the fray Joel Johnson.

I do not think my 5lb. miniature daschund has the physical ability with training or not to harm a person. I mean seriously, he barks at the mailman, while hiding behind a flower pot.

what about the dogs are ugly to look at? why would someone want an ugly looking dog? I don't get it.
