Sometimes kids  “ innocently “ abuse dogs ! Dont know what really happened with the skateboarding in such close quarters (kitchen).

That being said.The dog needs to be put down

[Nivram]

Sorry i disagree.

You don't know what really happened.

8 year old skateboarding in the kitchen.

How big is the kitchen.

Maybe the kid smacked the dog with the skateboard

I currently own a full bred pitbull.

She is the sweetest loving dog who loves people.

You may well have, but they are a fighting breed, which is  on a knife edge of control and numerous cases in UK, here and world wide show that they can be dangerous, vicious and unpredictable.  I love dogs, I have two Shih Tzu's, but I would not let any breed of fighting dog anywhere near my family, or my dogs. The fact that you state that she may have hit the dog with her skateboard, which is absolutely no excuse for the dog's actions, says a lot. I have accidently trodden on my dogs on rare occasions, they may yelp, but then come for a cuddle of reassurance, they would not retaliate.

My Pitbull Satan wouldn't harm a fly.

All dogs are killers, but the bigger they are, the better they are at it.

[Nivram]

I also own a shih tzsu.

They get along great with each other.

Dogs take on the personality of its owner.

You train it to be mean. It will be mean

 

[HolyCowCm]

Dogs can get belligerent of any breed. The dog and its age and her being a young kid and her skateboarding may have been contributing to all of the above.

I have 2 dogs here. French bull dog and a Beagle, but there is no way I would let my wifes sister's kids be alone in a room with them or playing out in our yards all alone with especially the Frenchie.

Correct. All dogs can become bitchy.

I was attacked by an American Pitbull in Udon Thani many years ago, whilst out in a park adjacent to the Soi where I was living. Fortunately I was next to a small lake and jumped in before it could do any real damage. If it had followed me, then I would of drowned it. Time the Thai Government banned this dangerous breed.

[Nivram]

If you own a dog and you are outside, put a lease on the dog.

Where was the owner of the dog Bobbyj?

You can get attacked by any dog that is not controlled by the owner.

There are to many dogs in Thailand running around without any owners.

Maybe owners don't care.

What bloody nonsense

” Sweet” until it tears out your throat or face.

You must be gullible and wear rose- tinted spectacles ! Open your eyes! Acknowledge Truth

Pitbulls are Killer Dogs not Pets. 
Chained Guard Dogs Only.
Existential Threat to Humans.

Small Kids killed every day……

US Woman had her ARMS RIPPED OFF by three of these evil beasts. 

After first unprovoked attack any dog must be destroyed but this is not the practice here. 

There is one MASSIVE Pitbull on our Hill who constantly attacks strangers unrestrained. Police Told / Nothing Done. Local Hospitals do a roaring trade with savaged foreign hill walkers.

My father trained killer dogs in the Army. He would NEVER have them living with Humans.

Clearly Humanity is Split on This.

Rational Informed “ Killer Dog” types.

Irrational Blind “wouldn’t hurt a fly” “ sweet dog” types.Education Needed.

Couldn't Care Less Macho Owners ( “ look at my killer dog” types who miraculously are never attacked but do nothing when others are). Jail Needed.

Depends on the situation if it is going to give good dogs a bad name.

[Nivram]

I got bit by an aggressive chihuahua.

Do you want to ban this dangerous breed too?

Bottom line

Dogs outdoors should be on a leash.

You train a dog to be aggressive then it will be aggressive.

Pitbulls, Rollweilers, German Shepards, Pugs, Chihuahuas

Correct.

And even more sadly, many bitches can be(come)worse than dogs...like during divorce proceedings and custody egomania.

Hope the little girl heals quickly, without any future PTSD.

If I had to lay my head on the line, I think without fear of contradiction it would be safe to say that I fancy my chances more with a Chihuahua savaging me than a Pitbull.

Being chased by some big dog is terrifying. Once, when I lived in Trat, I had to pick up someone from the bus station around 1:00 at night and used my bicycle. It was this small BMX. 

I rode it past a few dogs and suddenly they started running towards me. I almost left a trail of shit on the road.
