TAMPA, Fla. -
Two pit bulls attacked a Tampa man and dragged away the family’s pet poodle before cannibalizing him. One pit bull also attacked a police officer.

The owner, who lives on 37th St. in Tampa, had just gotten back from work and took his poodle— named Simba— out for a walk like he does every morning. That’s when two pit bulls came out, bit Simba and dragged him away.

Keithroy George tells ABC Action News that’s when the dogs killed Simba and started to eat him. A Tampa Police spokesperson said one of the dogs then attacked a responding officer. The officer shot him dead. The other pit bull was eventually found and restrained. He was taken away by animal control.

The two pit bulls were named Tito and White Boy.

“Vicious, just vicious dogs," described George, "I really am hurt I lost Simba. He's a friend of the family. I’m going to miss him."

    Friends little dog got rag dolled by one a couple days ago... had to wrap him in his shirt to hold his guts in on the way to the vet...

    God I hope the pet offense registry bill gets enacted and dipchits like this guy never can own a dog again. I mean who lets their dog get eaten.

    How the heck do dogs get "loose"? Yes, the other dog should have been put down right away. And the owner should get sued and jail time.

    Problem here is the owner of the offending dogs... They got loose... it is on the owner....

    Vicious animals have no place in society, ban the breed and jail the owner.

    Then we have to ban all dogs... because they are all pack driven, territorial predators..... And under the right conditions all of them will exhibit behaviors common to predators...

    Yeah, pitbulls and collies attack other dogs and humans at the same rate.

    ****...

    Every time I get a head of steam going...Good Ol' Johnny comes by and makes sense...dousing my boiler...

    Years ago we had the sweetest animal that loved just everybody.....unless he didn't know you and then he would go berserk

    ......the best thing about it was he was a 7 pound house cat...we didn't train him to do that....he was never hit not abused and we had him from birth.

    He was just the way he was....until he got to know you and then he would love you to death.

    Johnny....I hope you liked the part about killing the grandma....my next reply was going to be something about burning the block down....:)

    Yet. They've never bitten a person that we know about.

    I am sure there's as many loveable pits as dangerous. But, the owners make the breed dangerous in the eyes of many.

    I bet it was an American Staffordshire Terrier

    Agreed. My pit terrier doesn't like other dogs until she really gets to know them (unless they are puppies), but she loves people whom I introduce to her and most certainly children. Don't even get me started on babies. She'll lay next to a crib for hours guarding anyone's baby while they sleep.

    But I do have a hole in my screen where she scared away a salesman who came to the door.

    But still the owners should have their dogs under control.

    From one of my favorite movies.....

    " All right, I'm coming out. Any man I see out there, I'm gonna shoot him. Any sum***** takes a shot at me, I'm not only gonna kill him, but I'm gonna kill his wife, all his friends, and burn his **** house down."

    For 10 bonus points.... what movie is it? :)

    I bet I have seen that movie ten times. If it comes on again, I'll watch it again.

    I see what you did there...

    I don't care what kind of **** dog you have, keep it enclosed and keep it on a leash when outside of enclosure. Man I hate when I see people walking their dogs down the boulevard without a leash.

    We don't have to ban all dogs. But we could require that all dog owners pass a test on canine behavior and buy a license for their pet which would include a liability insurance premium.

    That would be the responsible thing to do.

    But then most dog owners get their dog to fill an emotional need they have. Too bad they don't bother to study before taking on the responsibility of dog ownership.

    I think FS should require potential members take a test first.

    I am glad to only be a bird hunter with bird dogs...being a shooter or dog handler or whatever other niche exists to separate appears to generate far too much about which to worry.
