Hora, the rottweiler I had to stop from getting an early dinner had been brought up by angry, alcoholic travellers who fed it frequently on a diet of magic mushrooms. The owner meant nothing to it, and many dogs aren't trained properly, we don't live in an ideal world. This one used to suffer tunnel vision and bouts of intense violence towards anything that moved across its vision. I remember trying to run with it for fun and it snapped inside its head, thought my arm was a flying sausage and destroyed my denim jacket and thick fleece underneath. We were trying to retrain it up a bit to give to a mate who was a security guard who'd lost an eye after a crossbow incident. He ended up taking the dog to work for confidence and made sure there was at least one 6ft fence between him and the dog at all times.
You should have sent it to chemical heaven

mrdestructo - MemberHave you read Tom Sharpe with Kaffir-Killer Els and his incident with a rottweiler? It may get down to that I reckon.
Hah yes a long time ago, seem to remember being reduced to tears. (of laughter)
immediately I had my dog held aloft above my head with both dogs jumping against me to get to him.
obviously I wasnt there at the time but 9 times out of ten that is entirely the wrong thing to do
Yeah the right thing to do was watch his dog torn to bits?
Get real
[Black humour] Well maybe with hindsight it'd avoided my son getting attacked by our own pet [/Black humour]

Best way if you are going to own a dangerous dog:

I had the neighbours pack of attack trained dogs go for my dog in Zim once when I walked it off our property. There was one 'family' small dog amongst the pack and it came in sniffing, then let loose with barks and the pack descended. I had to grab my dog and lift it up to stop it getting torn apart. Luckily it was than 1 time in 10 I guess. The dogs had only been trained to attack 'blacks' [sigh]

Have you seen Horas dog? He was more concerned the louis vuitton handbag he carries it around in ....

Not likely lol
If you have time, please adopt this friendly rottweiler:
Hora's dog did not live long enough to be badly harmed in this video...
Get the gun...
lol quality! That Rotty was going to nail that thing from word go, the problem with dogs?
It's people. To many of them just don't get it.
It's a dog eat dog world.. hah I crack myself up.
LOL
Seriously it's not easy to train a dog and requires dedication.
I think dogs are awesome, but they need awesome owners too.
Sometimes you can't predict what will happen in a new situation with people or dogs.
I haven't read anything except the OP's initial post, how can you NOT report that? WTF!!
The poor dog.to develop that behaviour it's life must be crap.
I still live across the road from robbing scum so I sympathise with the problems of reporting the incident but for the next victims sake and that of the dog report it
Clearly.I haven't read anything except the OP's initial post
He has.how can you NOT report that? WTF!!
Holding a small dog aloft will cause most poorly trained dogs to jump up and investigate. Most dogs will not attack straight away and most outgunned dogs are able to diffuse the situation with an appropriate amount of grovelling. Emphasis is on the most though. Very few dogs will just wade straight in and attack. Can happen though and i wasnt there.
I'm going to get me a battle cat.
Had a little LOL at that .We used to have a cat that was exactly the same , She hated dogs with a passion and I actually witnessed her attack a Rottwieler that was taking a pee up our wall.
Munqe Chick, I have reported it!
UPDATE: A PC went round for a chat and the guy informed him that the dog belonged to an ex housemate of his who had moved out and abandoned it (fancy that!), but at any rate said dog had 'run away' and wasn't at the property. The thoroughly bored looking copper then explained that they weren't about to stake out the guy's house (nor would I expect them to) and that that would be that.
Am I surprised? Not really. So, the result of all this?
My car will probably get vandalised, I'm still out of pocket and that dog is still out there and a threat to the public.
I did the right thing, but I'm not surprised that many people don't bother. Hopefully this chap will let sleeping (biting, surely?) dogs lie or else I imagine I'll be replacing all four of my tires in the near future.
and that that would be that
Call that Policing letting a owner fob you off about a dangerous dog. I would be down the Police Station like a shot and ask to see the duty Sergeant, does this dog have to seriously injure someone before appropriate action is taken.
bravohotel9er sorry but you need to grow some and get this matter dealt with.
Sorry, but if the police can't be bothered why should I do more than I already have? I work two jobs, volunteer at a shelter and study for a Masters...I don't have the time to play detective.
I work with the police and individually most are great, but on an institutional level they just can't be bothered with this type of thing. Until dog attacking a down jacket becomes a sanctioned detection they'll do nothing else.
I did post I hadn't read thread and your OP was 'should I report it?' In a nutshell. Just find it strange what some people do and don't report.
I doubt it was the down jacket the dog was attacking, did you not say your arm was bruised wtf, so Police are a great bunch of guy whoopeedoo, and your after an OBE or something doing all you do, point remains how would you feel if the dog attacks and rips a child to shreds when you knowingly new the dog is a danger but your time is to precious. Stating to think this is a complete Troll.
I did and your colleagues are aware of the incident, what they do (or more likely don't) do now is down to them. If said dog magically reappears like some aggro version of Benji I'll give them a buzz again.
Remind the police that 2 scoucers where today meeting David Cameroon about the threat dogs pose to young children.

Sadly the young child died,just perhaps plod would be able to sleep at night if he hadnt done something about it, i wouldnt be able to sleep.
I would suggest that you are the troll. But, I'll probably receive my OBE before you get your C grade in GCSE English.

❗ ❗ ❗ Get back to your books and serving soup then! 🙄
Why oh why do most threads on STW turn into slanging matches?
As a person who is scared of dogs, due to being bitten 3 times (once as a 2 year old by a corgi), I am glad the OP has reported this situation.
However at this moment in time, with the situation as it is and the type of people who own the dog, I can't see how he can do any more.
Cheers, the situation is far from ideal, all I can hope is that the dog doesn't try and nosh anyone else. I'll certainly
inform the police if it reappears, maybe a surprise visit in a month or so will net it?
To be honest you're wasting your time involving plod, these days they are about the most useless institution for honest law abiding folk, best avoided at every turn. Down here we have dog wardens, they are empowered to deal with stuff like this and would be less likely to be backed off by BS like plod.
Give your local council a ring see if there are such entities, we've got them for frikking everything round here, and a thorough nuisance they are to.
Sack the cat. I'm getting me a dog repelling duck!
Y u no work video? 🙁
I had a coffee with a mate this morning who got bitten by a dog on Monday. He was riding along and this ferocious beast nailed his leg, the owner then started to kick seven shades out of his own dog so my mate ended up restraining the owner ! He said it was all a bit bizarre really. He rang the police who happened to be very close anyway and he left them all having a chat. Decent bruise on his leg tho from the hound. I like dogs but i dislike people who do not control their dogs.
NZ it sounds like either the owner had a mental imbalance or he was a decent bloke. If I had a dog that bit a human I would be discussing its options with a vet.
OP- Haven't the Police been round to talk to you?!
Bunnyhop we used to have a Corgi when I was younger. It used to follow me around nipping me. At first my mum said I was annoying it then she realised it actually didn't like children 😆
lol quality! That Rotty was going to nail that thing from word go, the problem with dogs?It's people. To many of them just don't get it.

The problem with dogs is that they're the product of selective breeding for reasons both practical and vanity.
What affect this has had on temperment and behaviour, particularly in an urban/family environment is largely overlooked.
Add to that numpty owners and you have the predicatable shytefest.
To be fair I don't think you can blame selective breeding for aggressive behaviour, you have to remember that domestic dogs are all bred from wolves, and I'm not sure there are many breeds that you'd say are more dangerous than a wolf.
Selective breeding can make them more aggressive. I read a paper once that reviewed aggression by different dog breeds and Daschunds were the most aggressive. How much do wolves attack humans?
You've reported it, not much more you can do if they are saying the dog is no longer at the property.
If you see the dog again, report again that the owner still has the dog.
I am a dog owner and have a Rottie cross, but I can't abide irresponsible ownership and badly trained dogs. if you want a dog, you have to be prepared to put the work into training and socialising it.
Why's your Rottie cross? See this is the problem. Mean owners.
Boom Boom @ aphex!
