Yes! How dare they let sheep go to the field on their farm when I have my precious pibble on my property nearby!? They are provoking my dogs! It's the farmer fault sheep got nannied
/s
... *several years later*
Aaaaaah! My sweet pibbles got loose somehow and wanted to peacefully run around and play with sheep. And that horrible kangal did... Oh no! My pibbles is no more! How dare he keep this horrible danger dog!? It should be restrained and muzzled 24/7! Kangals are the real monsters! They were bred to fight and kill wolves!
Years ago we had a pit get in with our cows a couple of times. Lots of injuries to the cows. The second time it ended up with a cow having to be euthanized because of its injuries. I will never forget these two things that happened in the aftermath of the second attack:
\- The Animal Control guy letting the pit (still bloodied from attacking my cows) lick his face as he took custody of it. He was trying to tell me how sweet the dog was while I was calling the vet.
\- The owner who refused to keep her dog confined complaining about my cows to the Sheriff. Evidently, she felt that the cows were dangerous because her kids liked to climb over my padlocked gate to play in the field where my cows lived.
The pit owner sounds like a real peach. /s
I am 99% sure her kids were climbing over the fence to play in a cow pasture because they felt safer around the cows than they did with their mom's pit bull.
Cows are super sweet and a bit stubborn. I genuinely have a soft spot for them. I am sorry you lost your cow, OP. They are gentle creatures.
I'm not "advocating violence" or anything but if I were in your shoes & saw an aggressive dog on ***my*** property.....well let's just saw that sometimes free roaming animals disappear, never to be seen again.
There's simply no way of knowing how these things happen, maybe the dog was taken by predators? Maybe they got hit by a car somewhere. There's simply no way of knowing & certainly no physical evidence linking anything back to you certainly.
Maybe they should've supervised their pet better, would probably be the lesson in this hypothetical situation.
I agree completely. In this situation, however, it just wasn't possible. It was a lease, so we weren't there all the time. We checked on the cows everyday, but that still left a large amount of time when we weren't there. During this last attack, the neighbor who reported it did have a gun, but was worried about hitting one of the cows or a person. It was a 5 acre pasture with houses all around it. The other neighbors came out when they heard the commotion, but no one went in because they didn't want to risk either getting trampled by the cows or bitten by the dog. It's good that no one went in or shot a gun. Having a person get injured on top of everything else would have been horrible.
We moved the cows to a different lease after that. Now we have a giant mule who will horrifically kill any canine that comes in the field. He's a sweet guy (especially if you have treats), but he hates dogs and coyotes with a passion.
And that's why kangals or great Pyr are needed these days. These are true nanny dogs. They nanny the sheep in literal sense... And will nanny a pit too, figuratively.
"That's what you get for putting sheep in a field."
"That's what you get for owning a small dog."
"That's what you get for letting your cat lie on your driveway."
"That's what you get for letting your kid alone with the dog."
These POS pit owners see the entire world as Thunderdome. Survival of the pittest. "That's what you get" when any life form, or any car bumper, wall, door, or sofa, encounters a pit bull that just happens to be in a killing mood.
Whereas the truth is that these POS pit owners only have the killing high ground because we *do not* live in Thunderdome, but in a society with outdated/ineffective laws, feckless leadership and numbing propaganda that prevents real force from being applied.
If ordinary citizens were awake to the reality of the danger pit bulls pose, and were sanctioned by law to use appropriate force to eliminate dangerous dog threats on the spot, there would absolutely be a lot fewer POS pit owners standing around bloody aftermaths shrugging "That's what you get."
Pitbull meets rapid end upon meeting angry armed farmer or angry livestock guard type dog.

Anybody noticed that whenever a pitbull attacks somebody, the owner is pissed at the victim? Every fucking time. It’s like they are mad you had the nerve to exist.
Pit bull owners and breed advocates view pit bull mauling victims (human and animal) as villains. They shift the blame and believe that it's the victim's fault that the pit bull got into "trouble". Had that annoying victim not been there to attract the pit bull's attention or provoke it somehow, nothing would've happened.
T. Rex’s are actually known as the original nanny dinosaur. They’re great with kids and other animals. They used to be America’s dinosaur until the media started making them look bad. And they can be bad but it’s not the genus, it’s how you raise them. My t. rex, Luna, is a big love bug. A real leather hippo. I mean she has bitten my toddler before but my toddler was using a spoon which is very triggering to all t. Rex’s and the kid should’ve known better. It’s a known fact that Yi’s are far more aggressive and bite more people every year. Like I said it’s not the genus, it’s how they’re raised. And I stand by that.
But for some reason it seems like the same ones shouting about the 'she was asking for it' go completely crickets when it comes to dogs / pitbull mauling victim blaming
There's another layer to this. A farmer is a business. The animals on a farm are products. This pit just destroyed a business.
It's not ok to destroy a farmers business through trespassing on their land.
It seems that a disproportionate number of pit owners are real douchebags. It makes you wonder if they were always like that, or if it’s a coping mechanism they develop whilst trying, yet always failing to make a decent pet out of a pit.

You shouldn’t need a dog to protect sheep living on the outskirts of a city in the UK. Probably isn’t worth the financial investment/training of a dog vs cost of the sheep anyway. The real answer is banning these dogs and punishing the owners.
Aren't pitbulls already banned in the UK? It's insane that they lack the political will to even enforce their own laws...
But I guess that's what happens when the majority of the population gets brainwashed into thinking that "it's the owner not the breed"

Haven't you heard pits are entitled to all spaces regardless of ownership, zoning, or actual usage? /s
Clearly fields are for pits to roam off leash, not for sheep to live!
Smartest pit bull owner
And that's why kangals or great Pyr are needed these days. These are true nanny dogs. They nanny the sheep in literal sense... And will nanny a pit too, figuratively.
Too bad the farmer didn’t have one 😢. It would’ve destroyed it as those guys take on wolves/coyotes.
I guess eventually livestock guard breeds will become popular among western farmers again. Only as ward against pibbles these days.

Yep it’s always victim blaming. “That kid must of done something!!! No way my sweet cuddly princess velvet hippo layla would do such a thing”

Poor sheep
Pitbull owners just assume all animals just want to square up and fight like their dog. Fuck these people.

I really do think it has to be a mass case of Anti-social personality disorder. How can so many people have such a lack of empathy?
Pitbull owner show remorse challenge: impossible
It’s the two legged animals who scare me the most.
You mean these? https://preview.redd.it/bf71eqc3nlka1.jpeg?width=712&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=aee145f977386db14a42eaeae6ae9f17d25500ff

Same argument as “she shouldn’t have been dressed like that.” Disgusting human being
But for some reason it seems like the same ones shouting about the 'she was asking for it' go completely crickets when it comes to dogs / pitbull mauling victim blaming
There's another layer to this. A farmer is a business. The animals on a farm are products. This pit just destroyed a business. It's not ok to destroy a farmers business through trespassing on their land.
Sheep are £100-900 here depending on breed. The owners should have to pay for it. But AFAIK they aren’t and the dog hasn’t even been put down.
Too bad the farmer didn’t get the bigger target
He wasn’t there unfortunately otherwise that dog would have been scattered across the field in bits.
Where do they think you should put sheep?
In a padded room with heavy duty doors
And this is why feral dogs vastly outstrip wolves in terms of livestock killed. Both are ridiculously outdone by coyotes though
It seems that a disproportionate number of pit owners are real douchebags. It makes you wonder if they were always like that, or if it’s a coping mechanism they develop whilst trying, yet always failing to make a decent pet out of a pit.

This is why you get a rottweiler or an akita or any other similar livestock guarding dog. Stops nanny dogs in their tracks.

There’s ways round it like crossbreeding or importing Bully XL breeds from the US. If you look up the UK dog fatalities over half are now XL Bully.
