This breaks my heart in to a million pieces. I cannot imagine the survivor's guilt mom will feel. I also cannot imagine the guilt dad will feel. He was extremely loyal to the pit bull breed.

Interesting. I wondered if those dogs were pitties. I have never had a pit bull, but have seen some very nice, well socialized pitties.

Terrible. I had a Basset Hound mix, he never had enough energy to bite anyone.

Not sure if I'm allowed to link it, but if you google a website called dogsbite.org, there is a story about this case. They did a deep dive about this family's dogs and their bloodline. When you find the site, click on the Blog tab, scroll down a bit and you'll find it.

Was there ever any sort of update on the mom or anything else in this case?
