- The plaintiff says the defendant’s dog mauled her dog in front of her daughter, and her pet didn’t survive. The police traced the dog in question to the defendant, but he refused to compensate the plaintiff for her loss, so she’s suing. The defendant denies that his dog killed the plaintiff’s dog and insists it’s a case of mistaken identity.
32-121
I literally can’t stand careless dog owners like this!
It sucks that if the dog was alive and went to the vet for $5,000 in vet bills, he'd be responsible for $5,000. But since it died, they just get a couple hundred dollars. 😔
Yeah, but that’s because the owner would literally be out that money. In this case, the owner technically wasn’t out anything except the pet itself. I do wish the law allowed more middle ground for pain and suffering with pet compensation cases though. I don’t think people should get compensated for every little thing when it comes to pets like she was trying to get, but something more should be allowed even if it’s just some kind of monetary minimum in general.
If it had been a mutt she would have gotten $0 .There was a case many years ago on the peoples court where a rabbit was killed by dogs.Because it was concered livestock the owner got triple damages of the animals value plus the value of the future offspring.The rabbits were expensive registered breeding rabbits so the dog owner paid dearly.
Good point !
this is so sad
That's because a dog is considered property in the eyes of the law. It's just like if someone's in a car accident that isn't their fault. They either get the cost to repair the car if possible, or they get the market value for the car if it's totalled.
Funny how the defendant showed a video is his dog with another dog that was leery about even approaching the Pit. Did anyone else notice that?
I definitely noticed that. His dog is obviously aggressive.
Most certainly did and was looking for just this comment.
Yes. They were not "playing"
yes
Yes!
The way he kept saying "hm?" when the judge asked him a question 😂 lying like a child
Hell yeah 🥴
&& it’s goofy AF. 😂I said the same thing u said.
The pitbull was unleashed with a capital "U" . He's as guilty as you can be.
Lol
He’s mad dumb
Them capitol U's can be vicious! I used to run with the capitol U's in my younger days... they tough.
Judge Milian despises pitbulls and doesnt trust them. The def doesnt stand a chance.
@@queenbee3647 I hate pits too
Ohh I get so angry 😡 with dog owners who don’t think their dogs don’t need to be on a leash
💯same
Yeah, especially since some cities/states DO have leash laws. :/
Even worse when they try and convince you their dog doesn't bite. They're born knowing how to bite and because they don't bite you, don't mean they will not bite me.
I have the sweetest, chunkiest American Bully. But I have no idea how he’d react if he was antagonized or felt threatened. I know he’s big and very strong. I would never let him off the leash, in fact, I cross the street away from other dogs. I love him too much to risk anything
Hell, even some state parks require leashes@familyoftacticaldroids309 . I camp frequently on land that is within a nature preserve for deer and they require all dogs be leashed even within the campgrounds
So we're going to skate by the fact that that other dog on video was PETRIFIED of his dog as well? LOL
Thank you! Can't believe he submitted as evidence 😆 oblivious
I noticed that too. Like "I want to play, oh uh-uh she's coming at me"🏃🏾♀️🏃🏾♀️🏃🏾♀️🏃🏾♀️
same reply i left
That’s an exaggeration. The dog was probably new to the pitty and tentative. The dog wasn’t terrified. I’ve introduced hundreds of dogs through my rescue and it looked like they were meeting for the first time and establishing their boundaries
@@oldageisdumbso you actually played devil's advocate for a dog that killed another one?
It wasn't specified that this was a first time meeting.
I hate dog owners who think that letting a dog run wild is up to everyone else to train when they are too lazy to do so themselves. And wait till it injures a dog or worse a human.
It’s ok. Someone has a gun
In my opinion, dogs are just like children. They "act" accordingly as long as their parent is around. And his ass wasn't around to know his dog wouldn't bite.
I love your comment🤣
The poor pup died brutally. R.I.P dear doggo ❤️
At 12:16 that pit bull is NOT playing with the white dog. His tail is vertical and the tip is twitching. Behaviorally this means about the same as a rattlesnake rattling. This is not wagging in friendliness. He chased the white dog off something on the ground, perhaps what he might have thought was a piece of food.
I was thinking the same, not playing but looked more like he was afraid of that dog.
More recent research by veterinary behaviorists at UC Davis indicate that trail wagging has no correlation to the dog's emotions, but only indicates their energy level. So, a dog can be quickly wagging it's tail in either a high state of happiness OR aggression. There can be other clues such as stiffness of the body and raised hackles are an obvious indicator. But a wagging tail by itself will not tell you anything other than energy level.
I am not going to be liked by this comment, but in my S.@.S traning the most effective way to stop a dog attack is to stomp on it it's back. This will break it's spine and stop the attack. Do not do this freely, but don't hesitate if the situation requires it.
@@bobbrown9161 well it definitely is sad to think about doing that it if it’s killing a child or an infant or even a loved fur family member, I guess it’s good to know.
He wasn’t playing but he wasn’t acting aggressively, either. He was showing some dominance (different from aggression) and the white dog was being submissive. Looked like two dogs meeting for the first time and feeling each other out.
Pit bulls can be great loving dogs no doubt about it. But they are more prone to attack especially if there is more than one dog. I have purchased chickens, rabbits, and other animals depending on the breed because I am looking for certain personality traits. We need to be real with the best way to handle these dogs.
It's truly how you raise them and they don't like other dogs
FINALLY!! They are amazing dogs, but just like so many other breeds that are bred for a specific purpose, pit bulls were bred for tasks where more aggressive individuals were chosen to found the breed. They aren’t “bad”, but genetics play a huge role in how animals behave. Just like labs are genetically born loving water, huskies are known for howling, collies instinctually have a drive to herd, and beagles are born loving to hunt and bark, pit bulls are prone to being more aggressive. Definitely, certain owners and more training have a HUGE impact on behavior, but this is facts in general.
I have a pit and a chihuahua and they love each other. I also had another chihuahua but I had to put him down because he bit the other chihuahua, me and my husband. I love both chihuahuas but he was unfortunately inbred.
Best way is to get a gun.
They aren’t more prone to attack but they are prone to attack more aggressively.
I have a fenced in yard but I would never let my dog out in the backyard and then go take a nap and leave him outside.
Once I fell asleep w my dog outside.
My Dal woke me up & dhuffled him outside in the middle of the night.
I did NOT realize it was storming.
He got under the concrete stairs.
I was pregnant so I couldnt get him.
I felt so bad even woke my husband who would go get him 😭
Judge Milan is right, every case involving a pit bull attack sounds the same....
From another case, "No, judge, my pit bull is sweet." "What's the dog's name?" "Killer."
I remember that episode! 💀😂😂
🤣🤣🤣
😂😂😂 wow
Lol😂😂
Omg, which case was this because I've been unable to keep up with the show (no cable, only streaming)? xD
This lady has beautiful eyes. It’s sad how these owners get away with these attacks
The daughter
Beautiful eyes, irrelevant!
I think you're just saying that about her eyes because she's the victim dog's owner.
@@pamelaclary6805 bruh shut up it’s a compliment they noticed a feature about her
@@pamelaclary6805 Maybe she's black also and they usually say how gorgeous they all are.
Hearing, and envisioning how the little chihuahua was burried in the back yard with his two monkey toys made me 😭......
The owner of the pit bull is simply too lackadaisical to own a violent, terrorizing breed. He's smirking and smiling his way through the entire case. Disgusting dog owner behavior. "Throw the book at him, Danno."
Thank you for teaching me a new word… you learn something new everyday 😊
I think terrorizing breed is a little extensive. He is just a bad dog owner. It's nothing to do with the breed. Certain people should not own certain breeds. Most people get pit bulls because of how they look. They don't consider the fact that pit bulls need extra training just like any other big dog. My pitbull loves all people and dogs, he has been attacked by small breed dogs! Its not the dog it's the owner.
@@kalynnmewes3990 Agreed. I grew up around pit bulls and my dad would keep very firm control because he didn’t want the dogs accidentally hurting his (or any) small kids. They were always kind, and I adore dogs, but pits are big and strong, so of course smaller dogs don’t stand a chance if they get into a fight. And smaller dogs tend to be less trained and more willing to get snappy with a big dog as if they have nothing to lose. It’s an unfortunate incident and definitely his fault, especially knowing there was a crack in the gate to begin with.
A breed is never violent or terrorizing. It’s always the OWNERS
@Kalynn Mewes I was taking a walk around a lake once by myself when I noticed a dog owner of a pit bull who hardly had any control over her dog. When they got closer and were starting to approach me (we were walking in opposite directions) the woman became anxious and was really fighting to hold it back...it growled and snarled at me in such a way that it struck TERROR in me and if the person walking behind her hadn't stepped in to help control the damn thing, that pit bull would have surely torn me to shreds and had a nice leg steak for a snack. It was salivating and barking and pulling its owner like a weak rag doll, and it scared the ever living shit outta me. So yeah- pit bulls terrorize some people. I'm one of those people who have been inches from a full on monstrous terrorizing attack by a pit bull. So terrorizing is not an extreme word for me to use because I have the personal experience of being scared to smithereens by a fierce, violent, terrorizing pit. Personally, I've never met a pit I liked. I can't abide any pit bull. In me, they strike 100% fear.
Something for you to consider.
Just saying.
Peace. ☮️
The defendant is a liar! What a jerk! SMH
I have a pit bull and 2 bullies. Even though my pit isn't aggressive toward me or the other 2 dogs idk how they would be around other dogs they don't know or people so I always keep them close to me on a leash and don't let random ppl pet them. Pit bulls already get a bad rep so having your dog unleashed is beyond me
Exactly. I’m the same way with my pit. Anytime he’s outside, he’s always leashed even tho he’s a sweetie and I even take extra precautions and move aside when other people approach. And that is mainly because pit bulls have an extremely bad reputation
Amen
Thank you so much for your comment @STFUHEAUX
Ahh because Ur a decent human and have more then one.brain cell and actually care about others and have empathy...
People like.this don't deserve dogs... Poor innocent pup.. the passed and the potty because it has no hope with a pos like this as its owner... Fancy letting Ur pit roam free
Bless. Hopefully U and Ur pups are well all these months later
Btw we rescued an ex fighting pit in the 90*s...
She was all scared up and messy looking but boy did she love us and my mothers little dogs.
She was amazing.... She had a hard life but the love they have after that is amazing. ❤
that white dog was terrified of his pit bull. he calls the video "playing". WHAT???
That small dog was scared of that big dog they wasn’t playing 🤦🏽♂️
So sweet to hear them talk about how much they loves their dog abd how much of an imprint he left on their lives
I wish the judge would have given them a little something for pain and suffering.
BEFORE I WATCH THIS, let me guess, a PIT BULL?
I love miss Geneva’s hair. The curl pattern and grey is classic and lovely!
She looks just like my abuela (grandma); the hair, the complexion!
ewww
I have a CHIHUAHUA that has fear aggression. She’s seen multiple behavioural trainers and even went on medication for “anxiety” at one point to help combat her aggressive tendencies. Nothing helped, not for very long anyway. All this to say that we make a conscious decision to not take her on walks or into public spaces, we always put her away if we have visitors or workmen or even when couriers come to the door, we take every precaution to keep others (and her) safe. You have a massive responsibility when you own an animal, they didn’t choose to live with you - you chose them. Even though she’s small and likely can’t do much damage, she can still do enough, and I would hate for a child or another dog to be hurt because of her unpredictable nature. She’s a danger to herself too, she can trigger much larger or more dangerous dogs with her behaviour and we are very aware of that.
I can’t believe this man is so nonchalant about his dog, a dog that viciously attacked and killed another helpless dog. It’s scary to think there are so many irresponsible dog owners.
Some people really shouldn’t have dogs, sorry to say.
We have a rescued chihuahua. He lived in a hoarder house for nine years. He is terrified when people come to our house. Kids want to pet him when we walk him cuz he looks cute in his clothes. We dont let them. We know he will go after you. He has trauma, its real, we keep an eye on him. Its our job. Youre right.
@@queenbee3647
This is so important 🙏🏼
You’re an incredible dog mama.
@@BrooksDunn please be joking. Hitting a dog doesn't improve their behavior.
Fear not aggression.... Unfortunately most are like this.
Ur brave . I could never own one. Prayers to Ur pup it can start to enjoy its life nice and chill because U seem amazing... And obviously Ur pup is safe with U.
Lots of love and peace to U
@@ElizabethSotiriaUr incredible too
it is always the owners fault. every pit bull owner that are in these cases have issues with their gates.
The plaintiff should get $5,000. It is terrible that this happened.
Pit bull owners need to get a license before acquiring that dangerous dog.
The fact people don't take accountability for their dogs scares me for what they think of their kids
Me too.
😢
whoa! the plaintiff's OTHER dog is afraid of the pit bull!!
Pit Bull owners can say all day “it’s not about the dog, it’s about the owner.” It is partially but when’s the last time a chihuahua broke through a fence and killed a pit Bull?
There is a case on this channel where a Chihuahua bit a person on the ankle but it didn't break through a fence to do so lol.
They say that as if it matters! If it's the owner, what's they're suggestion to fix the problem!??
seeks legal counsel and instantly changes his mind about what happened. also forgot to bring the tickets that would provide context....
Huh another pitbull killed something what a surprise
Oh he forgot the tickets . He remembered his bling .
Always a pitbull 🙄
The white dogs on the video was like Hey just seeing how you feeling today please don't hurt me
I watch a lot of episodes and this one right here made me comment... This elder lady is so sweet and sounds like she'll miss ole Dodger! She, the cat, and the other dog will miss Doger! No more alarm, no more greeting people. It makes me super sad that she no longer has him! 🥺 RIP Dodger! 🙏
Coming to court without any documents is a major red flag on both sides !
The interviewer guy at the end didn’t sit right with me … he gave “insensitive” vibes. “You gonna have to live with it like everyone else” wtf🙃
He can be a bit inflammatory at times. For sure.
I'm surprised he hasn't had the microphone forcefully inserted places.
This is your first time watching the interviews at the end, isn’t it? 🤣
Yesss he get on my nerves
I feel so sorry that your dog was killed and they explained how the dog’s absence has effected all the others in house.
Where I live a second amendment state just know I will protect mines. I'm tired of irresponsible dog owners. Just know if you move to a second amendment state you will gets yours and it will be your own fault for being a careless idiot, thinking your dog wouldn't hurt a fly. I've been through this too many times. It's always a effing putbull. 🙄 and dumb as owners.
This guy is lucky they didn’t force him to euthanize his dog. I had a pit/boxer mix. Sweetest girl EVER. She was a rescuer dog, the people before us severely mistreated her. She would run from strangers. She only felt safe with us. My uncle who lives next door has hundreds of feral cats running around. They would come over to my house and tease my dog. They would sit at the top of her kennel while she would try to jump & get them. They would walk right in front her her kennel then sit and just stare at her, just baiting her. One am, SUPET early at like 4:30am she got out of her kennel and was chasing those cats. They ran over to my uncles barn. He even said to the cops that she was chasing the cats (so obviously she chased them from my yard). He was up feeding his animas when it happened. She ran into his little barn after the cats & got ahold of one of his goats. Unfortunately she took her aggression out on the goat & it didn’t make it. He shot her in the shoulder with his .22 he packs with him. Called the cops (he thought the dog had ran off & died). Told the police he didn’t want to take further. Found out the dog made it, changed his mind, got served with papers, went to court & had to have my dog put down. He didn’t get into any trouble for his cats & they still cause a HUGE messes. They get into EVERYONE’s garbage. They mess EVERYWHERE.
Judge wrong. Should have compensated for all bills
Judge isn't wrong. She's bound by the laws.
Pit Bulls have jaw muscles and teeth strong enough to crush a brick. THAT's the difference....other dogs' jaws aren't that strong. ps the owner's claim that the Pit Bull came home without blood or dirt on it doesn't mean much. I doubt the Chihuahua (less than 10 lbs) would have lived long enough to knock the Pittie down and roll it.
I think one of the only breeds with a stronger bite force than pitts are the German Shephard. Probably explains why they became the K-9 officer breed of choice. Plus apparently they have a great sense of smell so they are perfect for that too.
Now idk about the whole brick crushing thing, but the bite force of a breed is definintely not something to sneeze at. I thought Pitts were the strongest, but heard that nope, GS's are even stronger. :o
@@OverlordZeroULTIMA sorry, no way!! Bully breeds have a MUCH stornger bite than a G Shep. That's why they have those bulging jaws....extra muscle fibres for exta bite (sorry, i'm a mall animl vet....experience is almost everything....plus a lot of necessary reading0 One woman went away for a couple of mos for work, and when she came back, her pit bull (nice dog!) had gone through puberty. Sadly her hubby and kids weren't home when she got back....she took one look at the dog, screamed, threw him into the car and drove to our clinic as fast as possible......she thought he'd developed cancer of the jaw while she was away! We had a fair bit of trouble convincing her that that's what happens when the Pit....and other bull breeds change from puppy to adult, but after showing her some books, she agreed. ps G Sheps USED to be good for police work, but now there are so many with hip dysplasia that have to retire early that the big cities and the army (who can afford it) go for Belgian Malinois now. Almost the same breed, slightly smaller, usually calmer, and they order them partly trained from the EU, so the commands can be givien in Walloon. (yeah, i blinked when i saw what the Belgian language was called, too) That way the villain can't order the dog off. They're $25,000 a pop though, which is why everyone doesn't use them. All the best to you and yours!! (mind you G Shep bites really do hurt though.....they just can't crush the bones in your hand or rip your skin opern and the muscle away from the bone from wrist to elbow like a Pit bull can ....i've seen both injuries.)
It's all how you raise the dog & not breeding aggressive dog of any kind together. Our pitbull is a big teddy bear. I got a 7wk old Dachshund for Christmas. From day 1 that little Dachshund is the boss. Our pitbull loves playdates with other dogs too. This guy should've had his dog contained. I have empathy for the plantiff that lost their beloved pet too.
Judge Milian this is not English class you don't have to correct her speech lol you know what she meant... 3:44
Sad he really don’t care about his dog so why care about another strangers dog . Even the video he showed his dog and the other dog “playing” that was NOT play. His dog actually lunged at the smaller dog , and the smaller dog backed away. That dog was aggressive towards other small animals smh. Anybody that knows dogs can tell you that! That dog should have been put down. Cause the owner doesn’t seem to care and it may be a small child it kills next if not careful smh !!!
I hate that an entire breed is villified because of crappy owners. Not all pit bulls are like this, and it completely depends on the way the dog is raised and trained.
But surely bad pet owners don’t always have pit bulls. Surely some have poodles or labradors or golden retrievers or whatever, and yet we never hear about them. If those dogs escape due to owner negligence, the owners don’t seem to end up in court over it. It can’t all be down to raising and training. There has to be some element of instinct or innate behaviour (along with owner negligence for allowing them to escape)
@@redapol5678 I agree. The reason we hear more about pit bull attacks is because they have incredibly powerful jaws. They do more damage than other dogs when they attack. And I think all dogs have the instinct, just not the power.
@@redapol5678 I should also say that I am not a dog lover, nor an expert, so this is pure opinion.
how did I know it wasn't a golden retriever that did this...I'm a psychic!
I know! I’m still waiting for the cases involving vicious poodles, labradors and golden retrievers attacking other animals and people 😅
@@redapol5678 I'd love to hear about a ravenous Shi-tzu (I probably mispelled that, I'm not good with animal breeds or names outside of general categories like "bird" and "snake", lol), myself! :P
These laws need to be changed, as far as pets being treated as "property".
That really does tick me off. I feel like if it lives and breathes, and acts on its own (like an animal) then it's not property.
If YOU have to turn it on or control it (like a car, microwave, whatever), then it's property.
Baloney they are property, you can't give people a fortune because they loved their dog.
I'll tell you why they don't. If dogs have rights, then all animals with the same level of sentience would also have to have the same rights. And guess who doesn't want that?
Forest Whitaker needs to keep better control of his dogs.
LoL yes
Shut up. That wasn't even funny! 😂
Judge Milian over talks her hubby all the time, I find that to be so rude…
i feel like all pitbull owners that get sued are always irresponsible and not adequate dog owners. they give the breed a bad reputation!!
Because they're cheap intimidating dogs. So poor irresponsible people love them.
I couldn’t agree more, I have a pit who has issues with other dogs at times. She NEVER goes outside without a leash on. I also don’t allow her near other dogs even when she’s on the leash with me. Also, I’ve known plenty other breeds that go after dogs. Pits get a bad rap.
They give themselves that rep
@@nikkid7963 yep I just commented the same thing. U have to take precautions with any dog but especially pit bulls
Plantiff has some pretty eyes
EWWWWWW
How do they come to COURT without their police report??? Ridiculous. Or the report from Animal Control which would have also stated the tickets the guy got.
love that he has a smirk on his face while talking about his dog being unsupervised for 3 hours, getting through a crack in the fence he KNEW was there. This is exactly the kind of negligent dummy that shouldn't own ANY dog let alone a dangerous breed. Why is it always these braindead, irresponsible people who just LOOOOOOOOOOOVE a pitbull. I wouldn't trust this man to watch a goldfish let alone a pitbull. Poor chihuahua but lucky it was just that one poor dog and not others, or even the kids in the neighbourhood.
and ofc he has pictures of his dog being sweet as can be with other dogs and kids because EVERY pitbull owner has those damn pictures acting like it's proof that their dog wouldn't hurt anyone. Even if it just ran up and murdered another dog. Those dumb pictures prove nothing.
its ALWAYS a pitbull
That’s the truth. Also the pit bull owner is always a careless asshole
It is not always a Pit Bull, it is just that the other dog attacks rarely get news time. A family with an English Spaniel was warned by a trainer that their dog was dangerous and if they did not get control of the dog it was going to hurt someone. They owners refused to believe that their dog would hurt anyone. A few weeks later the dog attacked a young boy and put him in ICU. The child was hospitalized for over 3 weeks. The trainer that did the evaluation tried to get news stations to run the story to show that all dogs had the potential to do harm and that owners need to be realistic about their dogs. Not one news outlet would cover it because it was not a Pit Bull.
@@AnikaBren it is always a pitbull. I have watched this show for years as well as animal court which is uploaded to TH-cam in my home state. Every single attack has been a pitbull doing it.
There was actually was a case involving an Alaskan Malamute and there are many aggressive breeds. Look up worlds most dangerous dog breeds.
Unleashed with a capital "U" 😅
Funny how everyone's animals "are their babies" and probably even for the people who make the laws.. But they don't make the law the way it should be. This is a life that was taken away by another living being. And no, before anyone says "so we should prosecute nature??" I'm speaking on a if the animal is "civil" enough to be owned by someone, they should have rights as a family member. No, don't sentence people to death, but they should be able to get more monetary value. Maybe, if this man could have been hit with pain and suffering, the price of the pet, medical, and maybe even reimbursed a "used" price for all of the items bought for said pet that would have been used had the pet not been murdered... then he'd take much more care about "leaving a gate open"..
Although maybe not, this could have easily been a "his dog attacked my kid" case.. And he didn't seem worried about that possibility.. I still feel like how the laws are right now, pet on pet attacks, human on pet attacks are too lax. Its abuse either way. Seems like no one cares as much as if a human was hurt, which is sad.
Daughter a lil slow, with a capital S
😂😂😂😂😂
That’s so sad but it’s not only Pitbulls. I’ve seen lots of other other breeds attack small dogs, for some reason they think their toys, and just like they will destroy a toy they will destroy a little dog it’s so sad.
yes but statistics show just on these shows alone that it is far more often Pit Bulls than any other breed.
Small toys with squeakers are made specifically to sound and look like small animals, I recommend not buying them dor your dog if thwy are a larger breed with a stigma of aggression, or if they’re around smaller dogs/pets
People should be aware that there's a difference between "vicious" and "dangerous." A pit bull can be the friendliest critter imaginable but be very dangerous in the wrong circumstances because of its instinct to bite and hold on.
Anyone with common sense wouldn't choose either adjective regardless of the 'difference'. Vicious and Dangerous are both negative and possibly detrimental. Friendliest Critter is a stretch...no one has ever referred to a pit bull as such🙄🤨😐
@@mrshappilymarried1 Do you consider cows vicious? How about dangerous, considering they're pretty big compared to the average farmer?
@@BobBlumenfeld the case wasn't about cows 🐄 nor was your inference. Again...The adjectives Vicious and Dangerous are synonymous and no one with common sense would prefer either IF given the option. Whether it's cows, dogs, birds, grasshoppers, ants, rodents etc etc. Neither is a good option BOB. Geesh!🦗🐜🐦🦡🐕
@@mrshappilymarried1 I disagree with your equivalence. Do you consider cows to be vicious? How about something inanimate, say an electric table saw? I'd say it's dangerous, but not vicious. Vicious is an attitude, while dangerous is just a condition.
Right or if a dog smells dangerous to a pit, they’re going to attack! Every dog emits different scents so you just never know.
Him: I let my dog out to play in the yard..🙄🙄
No you let the dog out to piss and 💩because you’re too damn lazy to walk it. Dog has zero socialization skills, trained to attack. Dog is treated more as a quasi “security guard” for the home instead of treasured 4 legged family member… dog probably isn’t neutered or spayed and has never seen the inside of a veterinarian hospital. Irresponsible owners like this give Pit Bulls a bad name
My man remembered to bring pictures of his dog playing with others-as if it matters-but forgot to bring the evidence specifically requested of him, which evidence documents actual events relevant to the case🙄
Always a damn pitbull. They should not b pets….don’t @me!!!
Phyliss has some beautiful eyes 👀
Yes, she does..beautiful ❤
Yes very beautiful 🥰
Agreed
I’ve yet to come across a responsible pit bull owner. They all just treat them like accessories and are naive to the extra attention and caution that pits need.
I understand what you are saying. There seems to be a high incident rate of pit bulls who get out and attack. BUT please do not paint ALL pit bull owners with the same brush. There ARE many responsible pit bull owners, who love their pets, and who take their responsibility serious. The only ones you really hear about are ones that attacked a person, or pet, so you don't really hear about the dogs who do not get out, or are not off leash, and have not caused harm, because they are not newsworthy, or part of a court case, and it can warp your perspective.
I adopted an 8 year old female pit bull at 2 years old, and she weighs about 100 pounds. She has never been off leash outside of our property. She also has never escaped our property and ran the neighborhood. We have an 8 foot brick wall on all sides of our back yard, with a metal gate, that she can not get through, around, or over. Even with that, she is still NEVER in the backyard alone unsupervised.
She is the sweetest, most lovable dog I have ever owned, but I am also aware she is very strong, so we make sure never to take any chances. I also want to make sure that nothing happens to her either!
Why even ask them to explain their pain and suffering when u know you're not going to award it......
Because it's only fair to allow her to explain even if she can't award it.
People like the defendant should not have dogs at all.
My pure breed Chihuahua cost over $2k. He got out lucky only owing a few hundred.
Yeah where I live they go for more.
The same way the lawyer told him they hv to prove his dog did it, he has to prove his dog didn't do it
Can we talk about how disgusting that defendants home looks in that video? Poor animals.
He has weird discoloration on the sides of his eyes like he needs a good wash or something weird.
The DAUGHTER SLOW
I was wondering if something was wrong with her
Pitbull owners are just so careless. The other day my friend literally wasn't paying attention and let his pitbull walk away and lost him for HOURS!!
I own a Pitbull and since you assume “Pitbull owners are careless” I’m telling that is a ignorant statement to make. It’s all depends on how you raise a dog. No matter if it’s a Pitbull, Chihuahua, Poodle, German Shepherd etc. Pitbulls have a bad reputation because people like the defendant do not care for animals like they should and people like you making ignorant and stupid statements makes it just worst.
@@daniela36849 But dude it's usually a pit bull that's runnin around being aggressive. In my lifespan I've seen two separate Chihuahuas, a pair of dobermans, a pair of rottweilers 😬, a pair of chow chows and about a million pitbulls lol
@@daniela36849 oh please. Get over it lady. The dogs are dangerous and you don't want to admit it. Alot of PB owners are irresponsible and end up in trouble. Your pit may be the most gentle souls around YOU AND YOURS. But can I( a stranger) approach yall without getting bit? Nope. Even if that stranger is a toddler it's gonna get mauled to death. So you can be as offended as you want. I imagine the parents of all those dead kids are offened as well.
@@daniela36849 truth hurts. Pit bulls have the most ignorant owners. That’s why they’re always loose, why they are always attacking people and dogs, and why they are literally in every dog shelter/pound.
Please don't group all pit bull owners together. My pit is sweet as can be buuuut idk how she is around ppl or dogs she isn't familiar with. I always keep my girl on a short leash next to me and would never let anyone pet her because of cases like this. Having any dog without a leash is asking for trouble.
So sad. Sounds like Dodger was a lovable pet
"Killer dog"...99% chance it's a Pitbull.
he is lying his butt off
How did the judge not catch this and call the defendant out on it?! First he said he had let his dog out to go play in their backyard while he and his daughter went to go take a nap til 6 pm and than a minute later he says he got home from work and that’s when some kid brought his dog to him around 630pm. How can you be taking a nap and be at work at the same time? Smfh can’t believe the judge did not catch that when it was loud and clear. Defendant seems like a nice person he should’ve just took full responsibility from the beginning to avoid all this court stuff.
He said he came home from work around 3.30 and then went to have a nap, and was then woken at 6 by the kids bringing the dogs back
That dog needs to run out one more time and find some poison. I love dogs but that thing is a weapon and this jerk has no control and he doesn’t care.
I’d be in fear of children around.!
Exactly.. that or needs to be put down or be seriously trained..

Just like a Man ....take NO RESPONSIBILITY....💯💯💯💯
Why are there ANY dogs roaming the neighborhood? If the city won't take care of it then the citizens have to.
There are like a dozen dogs roaming our town area and it's SO irritating to us. One nearly came right up to our car when we were driving.
I don't know why this annoys me so much....when she says 'why is it always a Pitbull that escapes?!' - it's not! Lots of different breeds of dog escape but most of the escapes don't result in an attack or mauling, hence they don't come before her.
because it is a way higher proportion of Pit Bulls that escape and attack like 70%
Oh I want mama to have another dog so bad!! I’ll buy it!! Y’all find her. And that was a purebred dog. People sell purebred dogs for less!!
He better be happy it was another dog & not somebody child! Like JM said a dog is property but a child…..Yeah somebody would take him for everything he got. Sad they couldn’t get any of the money they asked for. 🤬
It is crazy that with the hundreds and thousands of pitbull attacks, which is way more than other breeds, many people still deny that the pitbull is a dangerous breed of dog.
You’d be surprised to learn that labs are way up there, too. Pitbulls are actually slower to attack but do more damage once they decide to attack.
@@oldageisdumb The funny thing is that even though you make that claim after 47 years of living and dealing with law enforcement, I have only seen a handful of dog attacks that were German shepherds or rottweilers. I have even seen cases that went to court because of a Chihuahua attacking somebody which of course was because the person who got bit wanted to get paid not because they had any serious damage. The rest of the attacks seem to be Dobermans and pitbulls. Of course! Pitbulls were probably about 70% of the attacks. For a breed that is slow to attack, they seem to constantly get out of their yard and wandered down the street to attack people and other dogs in other houses.
But in all my years I have never dealt with a dog attack or a labrador or a golden retriever was involved. I am not saying it has never happened anywhere but it has not happened in my area. It may have gone through law enforcement and the courts while I was on vacation but other than that I have yet to have seen one.
The strange thing is at least half of the pitbull attacks. Had the owners telling everybody that the dog was sweet and had never attacked anybody ever. I am not sure how many attacks it will take for people to realize the breed is a dangerous breed.
@@tmendez31 That’s pretty funny as I am also 47 (go old people! Lol) I run a rescue here in the south and there are a lot of reasons for that, as I’m sure you are painfully aware in your profession. The biggest one is the difference in the demographic of folks that own labs vs pitties. If you are a demographic that does not spay/neuter, socialize and also do not maintain fences well, you are simply setting a breed up for more attacks. You also aren’t going to be called out nearly as much for a lab bite because lab bites are usually not going to be as severe as a pittie bite. There could be 100 chihuahua bites and 1 pittie bite, and you’ll get called for the pittie bite. If you ask most vets, they will usually tell you it’s not the pitties they have issues with. I’m not saying that there are not concerns with pitbulls for sure. They are designed that when they do snap, it’s going to be ugly and severe because of their unbreakable focus. But they weren’t labeled the “babysitting dog” for nothing 100 years ago.
@@oldageisdumb I try to tell people that it's important to understand dogs and know the characteristics of each dog breed. Of course, some dogs turn out a certain way due to abuse or neglect; bad environmental factors. But most dogs usually fall into their typical category. Pitbulls not being an actual breed but a group of breeds are mainly working dogs that have great strength and are great dogs to have their energy focused on doing certain tasks.
Sadly most people love the typical "gangsta" pitbull look where the ears are cut to give it a certain look. But like other breeds like dobermans, pitbull are much more prone to fight for advancement in the pack. When people don't treat dogs like dogs but more like kids, they get confused seeing how they are pampered and thus believe they can assume a more dominant role. Maybe not challenging the alpha, but certain others in the pack who have higher standing.
It's much more rare to hear of a lab attack or a retriever mauling, but all dogs have the ability to be aggressive. Too many people do not understand that dogs get stressed, scared, annoyed and can take things out on kids who are not as high up in pack ranking.
Heck, I got mad at myself two years ago for not watching my grandbaby closer at my friend's house. He has a Weimaraner who is very very gentle. But I still made sure to keep a close eye on my grandchild. I got into prepping some BBQ that I didn't notice she had approached the dog while the dog was in the dog bed. After several minutes of petting and messing with the dog, the dog snapped at her and scared her badly. Luckily the dog didn't actually bite her, but a more aggressive breed would have probably not held back.
Pitbulls are strong and aggressive like some other breeds, but still, unlike other breeds, they have a track record of suddenly getting aggressive and attacking.
As a teenager, I didn't believe my father who was a cop since I was 5 until he retired. He said pitbulls were crazy and I just thought he didn't like them. As I got older, I noticed exactly what he said, that most dogs that snap are usually pitbulls. I will admit that I think much of the fault is placed on the owners because they refuse to know the breed and don't feel the need to be cautious. They treat them like they would have treated any other breeds not knowing that the dog needs to constantly be treated like a dog and not a person. They need to have their energy focused on things such as exercise and training. And they still need to keep from leaving the children alone with the dog. Sure, many days pass with no issues, but that one day the dog is stressed out and boom.
With my Rottweiler I had years ago, he never ate around people. I made sure he was fed and left alone. Only I was able to mess with him when he ate and I periodically interrupted his meals for a brief moment since he was a puppy to let him know I was the alpha. He was so well behaved. Once he saw I gave my approval, all visitors were welcomed by him.
@@oldageisdumb you will also notice that in most cases men own Pit Bulls and younger men. It is the demographic of men who think the dog makes them look tough that get the breed and these are the demographic who are also irresponsible.
The reason that her son only paid $280 (or whatever) for the chihuahua is because he didn’t go to a reputable breeder. He went to a backyard breeder or a puppy mill. Chihuahua’s are irresponsibly bred everywhere and not near as expensive as other breeds.
That moment when you see so many of these cases you can literally predict what types of dogs will be involved...
Mauler: Pit Bull (or Boxer)
Mauled: Literally any tiny breed
Very rarely do I hear it being a breed of a similar size actually getting killed. Injured, yes, but not usually killed. And the judge phrased it exactly: "Why is it always a pit bull that gets out?". Agreed, I'd have a malfunction if the roles were reversed! (not that this should ever happen, but still)
It also bugs me how people will always claim that "my dog gets along with MY children/pets/family!". Who cares about YOURS if it is targeting OTHERS?? Either train your dog or idk...Get a better barrier? Clearly these gates never work with these dogs, so you ought to just leave them inside with you. Don't leave doors, windows, etc open, all that jazz. It's not hard, honestly.
(typing while listening and the judge pretty much remarked on the same stuff I posted, regarding the "gets along with ME" and the kind of dog that gets out)
(FYI, this was not meant to be a hateful comment toward any breed, but I've watched these courts for years and they usually do end up this way. Don't @ me; I won't see it anyway. :P)
Pitbulls (and other "bully breeds") are usually very friendly to people but will have very compulsive dog and animal aggression. It's just how they're bred and it sucks to see pitbull owners deny the fact that their dog is potentially dangerous. Obviously smaller dogs are an easier target since a pitbull can kill a chihuahua in a single bite
Remember, it’s never a case of a bad dog, but a very neglectful owner.
Pitbull, in this courtroom you already lost. If a pitbull was in a five-block radius of a dog attack. In this courtroom you're guilty!
There is a reason for that. A GOOD reason.
Considering that pitbulls are involved in 65% of all maulings, this court has it right!
Probably because it's true
They are amazing dogs when raised properly, but just like so many other breeds that are bred for a specific purpose, pit bulls were (originally) bred for tasks where more aggressive individuals were chosen to found the breed. They were created in a time where dogfighting and bull baiting was perfectly legal. They aren’t “bad”, but genetics play a huge role in how animals behave. Just like labs are genetically born loving water, huskies are known for howling, collies instinctually have a drive to herd, and beagles are born loving to hunt and bark, pit bulls are prone to being more aggressive than the run of the mill dog and have a high prey drive…including other dogs. Currently, pit bulls are the favorite choice for wild boar hunters due to their aggressive and tenacious nature. Definitely, certain owners and more training have a HUGE impact on behavior, but this is facts in general.
@@walkerridgefarms2774 That was one of the best explanations I have ever heard about pit bulls. Thank you! I learned a lot!
I want to know when they filmed this? Was the judge saying the $250 the chihuahua is worth is a lot or a little? I rescued my mutt and paid $500 for her in adoption fees and she is not a pure bread, curious if this is because I lived in Seattle when I got her or if this video is older
The video is taken sometime after COVID began because they used to have an audience in the pews behind the litigants and the guy who said rude things in the after interview used to be in person, not over video. Hope this helps some 🤷♀
NE Ohio. We adopted our chihuahua six years ago. Hes a pure bred, chipped, license, collar, harness, leash, shots, two bags of Hill Science dog food all for $15. He was a steal. He was also returned twice! Hes a great fit for us. Cant imagine ever returning him!
I think the judge thought that was a low price for a purebred dog
How do people lie under oath like it's no big deal? I would be a stuttering, bumbling mess if I tried. I mean he's obviously lying, but he doesn't seem to be struggling morally or ethically.
I love the way she looks at him
Phyllis looks just like a Phyllis
"Why always a pit bull, why not a poodle?" well ... because the producers of your show don't want poodle cases, they want pit bull cases so they can continue to feed into the fallacy that pits are more dangerous than other dogs. Pit Bull, btw, isn't a BREED, it's a classification that officially comprises of 6 different breeds (including the American Pitbull Terrier, American Staffordshire Terrier, Staffordshire Bull Terrier, etc), but also anything that LOOKS like a pit.
