Dog dies after attack on Weston-super-Mare beach

“Sad news from today's media

'The family of a week-old baby boy who died after being bitten by a dog have spoken of their devastation'......

Here we go again, another tradegy caused by the illogical desire to keep essentially wild dangerous animals as pets. And it's not the owners who do this, it is the dogs. You might just as well say that guns don't kill people the owners do ergo guns should be legal

Let's wake up, smell the coffee and bring an end to the unnecessary act of keeping dogs as pets.”

“For some owners, It may help to watch the dog whisperer episodes a few times, for guidance in controlling and understanding dogs.”

“Too many owners with trophy dogs with no idea how to handle them. Feel sorry for the cavilier king charles owner are ckcs are very chilled out dogs and soft as hell. The trophy dog owner should of been imprisoned for a month as punishment. This is happening far far too often nowadays.”

“What a horrible experience to go through, dogs are part of the family so I can only imagine what that felt like, I have a staffie (no i am not a "chav" or teach him to fight etc) I have had him since he was 8 weeks old and my son was 3 years old, they are growing up together and love eachother. My dog got attacked when he was a pup by a JACK RUSSELL and no longer likes other dogs so I keep him on a lead. I'm not trying to get jack russells banned because it attacked my dog, all sorts of breeds bite people/dogs the owners are to blame!”

“@Nicole in very sorry to hear :(

@doggypal I wouldn't bother arguing, only people with dogs will understand how amazing they are.

@vrtsl you're just a twit.”

“It was my CKCS that was brutally killed in this attack....
This story is to highlight that anyone with breeds of dogs that were breed for fighting, need to be more diligent when out with them in public places.....
If you are unsure of the control you have over your dog then keep it leashed for everyones sake...
This was an unprovoked attack. The Stapphy had got hyped up and was out of control......
It so easily could be a child next time!”

“Hey pillowfight thanks
I did think he is probably one of those not very smart people who can't defend their argument and go for the other person instead. The topic was dogs and he made it about me.
Oh well”

“You lot need to grow up think of the drug war”

“@ vrtsl36g

Wen uve lost da argument bring the pour gramer and speling init.



@ doggypal

You have got vrtsl36g running round in circles and chasing his tail.”

“Dear vtr just only read your message. As for my spelling mistakes most are actually typing mistakes. Burying bones at school was just too much fun. You still haven't given one reason why you dislike dogs so much. I have to accept not everyone like dogs. To my reference to yobs and thugs is because you didn't say dogs are repugnan, you said if all dogs were banned we would not have loud barks and people hurt. I meant you would still have people hurt by people and the loud music from the neighbour.
You haven't been that rational either and just because you don't like dogs doesn't mean you have to condemn them ( hope it's spelled this way, again I was busy burying bones).
And the poo on the shoes I hate that too but really you need to tell the owner who doesn't pick it up and it is just as disgusting stepping on people's puke on the street. And as dogs CAN be trained ( about barks and bites) it's the irresponsible owners you need to ban.”
