The above is a picture of me with my friend Rachel’s adorable and sweet pit bull mix Cessie. I include it as a preface to this hilarious/tragic story from Gothamist. The story is about a pit bull thats allowed to wander the halls of an UWS apt, terrorizing tenants. I wanted to counteract the idea that pit bulls are dangerous (although Gladwell does this way better than me in blink) even while promoting a story about pit bull attacks. Clearly the best part of the story is the following:
Elisa Schindler and her boyfriend said they were returning to their apartment with their Pomeranians Pumpkin, Sugarplum, and Marshmallow when Tyrus lunged at them. He knocked Schindler down and proceeded to maul four-pound Pumpkin, who survived, but required a hundred stitches. Schindler said that the attack left the hall spattered with Pumpkin’s blood and fur.
As the owner of a tiny dog i feel bad. At the same time I own only one tiny dog, and it is not named after something tasty.
