It wasn't really a pitbull.

I am late blogging about this, but remember the story that hit the news about the pitbull who was shot by police just outside of halifax at the beginning of May?

Silly Media, Silly Hype. It wasn't a "pitbull" at all.

It was a Mastiff/Boxer mix.

Check it out for yourself. :)


Me and my dogs in Halifax, Nova Scotia: A leashless reactive dog paid the ultimate price yesterday

Regardless, its very unfortunate that this happened. That any dog would put anyone in this situation. But, we will never know what exactly happened or if the situation could have been controlled rather then the dog being shot. Animal control are not even properly educated on how to handle a dog like this, why would the police be?

This is not the first time, nor will it be the last - that the media doesn't investigate enough to find out the breed of dog in dog attack incidents.

Speaking of crazy pitbulls on the loose, Miss Soleil was being doggysat by family, she got out. She did some barking, and even a little chasing, but everyone is okay. :) Apparently the lady walking the weinner dog was cool as a cucumber. She meant no harm. I really wish I could have seen this happen. To observe Soleil to see what really went on. Her body language and posture. I am sooo curious.
