why kill the dog?
you can see the dog is scared and a puppy at that, investigate the family save the dog
true they need to investigate the family. they should know better then leave a unsupervied dog with a little boy.. Maybe this happened before and they thought it was funny.
I am with prudence young-gordon. They need to investigate the family not the dog. The dog doesn’t understand what is going on or why his is in steel cage.
This is dumb a I dont think a pit would do that my friend has one and the pit sits right next to my friends baby and puts its paw around him like it is her baby. I am positive that something else happened
Also how the hell can a puppy sexually assault a baby???
The comments on this page are really ignorant. I suppose none of you have heard of “bestiality”. Yes, there are sick people who train their pets to have sex with humans. Yes, I agree there should be an investigation of all this dogs’ previous and current owners.

It’s ok those who defend those dogs, one day God forbid it could happen to one close to you. Then lets hear you make an excuse.
These are reported in newpapers what about thse not reported that you only hear of.
Now tell me!!!!!! How can you defend these dogs, some dogs were not meant to be bred (created by cross breeding).
Please investigate the family, this dog did not know what he was doing, people love animals, but none off them have the time to invest in training the dog properly. Blame the family members.
let me leave some knowledge on the site for all the APBT (american pitbull terrier) haters that will flock to here.
The APBT while being bread in the late 1800s and early 1900s was involved in pit fighting with other APBTs. The Dogmen of that day could be in the pit with the dogs and safely pull them off each other without being bit. If a dog ever bit a handler or other human they were instantly put down. That practice created a very people friendly dog.
The APBT was a war hero, the dog in Little Rascals, and considered the great american family pet well throughout the century up until the 80s and 90s and is just now getting its once golden reputation back.
Bad breeding practices performed by back yard breeders, and terrible ownership can create an unstable and wrongly wired dog. The breed is terribly over populated and in the hands of the wrong owner way to many times.
http://www.atts.org/stats1.html – this site performs temperment tests on breeds of animals.. basically how well behaved and loving they are towards humans. AMERICAN PIT BULL TERRIER 665 567 98 85.3% The APBT scored higher than Black Labs and right below Golden Retrievers.
The media has portrayed the dog as an evil unstable beast and that couldn’t be further from the truth.
Any dog can become a threat to a person but no one gives a hoot when its a smaller breed of dog bitting people.
I have seen dogs hump human legs so to think that a dog could not and would not assault a child is ignotant. Dogs will hump stuffed animals pillows etc… without being trained so why is this a shock. This dog needs to be killed and people need to watch their kids. Simple soulution.
A simple solution for the simple minded. The male dog always gets like this when without a mate. The medical method must be applied when you do not intend to satisfy the instinctual needs of an animal.
@Atheist- My kids never got sodomized by the family dog. Judging by your beliefs, you would probably encourage it. That is until you become jealous….of the kids.
I was talking about getting your dog neutered (castrated). The problem is that this is a pure breed dog and therefore, very valuable as it is.
I have only agreed with you once before, Curtis, but I never expected you to transgress like this.
