74 Year Old Woman Savaged by Pit Bull

  • In Charles Dickens day they were referred to as Staffords and owned by ruffians and the like  -- I see a lot has changed
  • Dickens villainous pit bull in Oliver Twist, Bulls Eye, was the dog of choice for robber/murderer Sikes  --  Why would he portray 'The Nanny Dog' as a villain?
  • Just walking her dog when pit bull jumped its fence and attacked
  • When it couldn't get the dog it attacked the owner -- very common in these attacks
  • Staffies are not on the banned dog list in England
  • Remember.  They are just misunderstood...
