Well Diamond and Papi got along great from day one, they played all day until they were just too tired to move. Weve had them together for 2 months now and everything was going great... until this past Sunday. I was at work and my gf let the dogs out to play and do their business, when all of a sudden she heard snarling and barking. She didnt get too excited beacuse if anyone has seen two pitbulls play, its pretty intense. Well she noticed that they werent playing and they were actually going at each other. She ran over to break them up... shes 5' 2" and about 110lbs... the female pit is about 35lbs and the male is prob around 50lbs. Any dog, much less two, that is close to your weight and is pissed is probably going to end badly for you. Well the gf sticks her hand in between to grab their faces and push them apart but the dogs react if she is not even there and proceed to bite her. Pic3 Neither one has ever even snarled at a human before much less bite them. She then jumped on the male to hold him down, he stopped fighting but the female would not stop. She scratched up my gf pretty good, luckily my brother had spent the night and heard her scream for help. He came running out and proceeded to drop kick the female and shock her out of kill mode. Luckily there was no life threatening injuries to anyone, but Im in shock of what happened. Both dogs are very good and have never done anything like this before... is it possible one is getting tired of the other? Before someone starts saying its because their pitbulls obvously doesnt know what their talking about and would appreciate you keeping your uninformed opinion to yourself.

You and I are going to have to so disagree on this and I cannot understand your position, IN THIS CASE, of arbitrarily wanting to put the animals down (the hippie comments do crack me up to no end though!).
Here is why I disagree with your stance, IN THIS CASE:
*I dont believe it was the dogs fault, they were being dogs, no mind you dont read into that as there is a limit to being dogs.
*An uneducated person attempted to break up the act of determining dominance in a pack - they got bit.
*The OP has already stated that the animals have not had training so do they have a already established propensity to attack, bit and tear the shit out of someone/something? I dont think so from reading this tread.
So my take is in this case I think we have a scenario of untrained dogs along with an uneducated gf which equals a bad case of getting bit. I dont think the animals need to be put down however I DO think education and training need to take place because if not THEN we will be on the way to a case of the animals needing to be put down.
I hope I am making sense? I think you are jumping a bit ahead in your reaction.
Cheers

Thank you for your compliments, however as a registered AKC judge for the working class and a registered kennel owner and breeder I have a firm belief by seeing the wounds and a lifetime of experience around many breeds that was not a simple dispute over dominance or lack of training. Dog fighting is illegal. When a question of dominance comes in a truly domesticated situation one is aggressive (usually the male) (though I've seen a female Chihuahua dominate my large male Samoyed) and the other lays down and rolls over to show submission. I apologize if I upset you as that's not my intention, I am rather abrupt on my strong convictions. I believe those to be dangerous animals not fully domesticated. An undomesticated animal can not be domesticated in one life time. We will have to agree to disagree. I only pray one of these dogs does not severely injure anyone in the future or kill one or the other or a small child. I wouldn't want that grief on my shoulders for the rest of my life Brother.
OH and yeah. . . Shiny fuzzy happy tree hugging PETA participating animal loving gun rights fighting vegetarian pot smoking hippies fighting the establishment crack me up too lol.
NOW! MY MILLER LITE ADD I MADE MYSELF! (wife was photographer)
Yeap, y'all get both versions AND appologies on the thread jack!
lol
