Pitbull attack

My daughter and I were walking on the beach north of Carnation Ave IB on Sunday with our small dogs and a pitbull attacked her small snickerdoodle Simon.  As he chewed on Simon and he was crying and bleeding my daughter had the presence of mind to drag the Pit Monster to the water to put his nose in water to get him to release our dog.  She yelled at the Owner to help us drag her monster dog to the water.  The owner, as is typical, was just standing there dumbfounded with her thumb up her butt.  We got the pit's head into water and he released  simon.  but before we could pick him up he got loose again and attacked.  We tried again to get his nose in water.  When he released Simon I grabbed for him to pick him up but the Pitbull then charged me and my hands were bloody.  Again my daughter mounted the dog with her leg on his neck holding him to the ground.  She yelled to me to go and as I hurried stumbling away with bloody hands, one of many onlookers took the dog from me as i was in shock and could not carry him.  The Lifeguards came up and put their tailgate down to let the woman ride with Simon to the beach entry at Carnation Ave.  My daughter told the owner of the pit that she would not get off of him until she got her muzzle, collar leash whatever and got her own leg down on top of her own dog.  My daughter finally was able to leave the scene and we hurried to emergency with Simon who suffered his lower jaw, chin and teeth ripped apart.  Painkillers were given and we paid over $1,000 for initial surgery.  We then went to Emergency and 6 hours later after $5,000 worth of treatment we went home with bandages and splint.  Will you help me get a petition for the city to ban these dangerous dogs.  My email is rinakeri@yahoo.com.  They kill often....last year a woman bitten in national city died from a Pitbull attack; and  young man shot one approaching him on a sidewalk last year.  Will we all need to get permits to carry concealed weapons because our city refuses to protect us?  These pitbulls were bred to kill from using a rat terrier who has instincts to chase rats and small animals relentlessly until they kill them.  They bred Rat Terriers with large Bulldogs and got the Pit.  The Germans bref their dogs to kill:  their Shepherds chewed up jews in the last was, then they bred Rots and Doby's to chew up anyone trying to cross the Berlin Wall.  Thes dogs can manifest their propensity to attack and kill at anytime anywhere.  They are never safe merely because their owner sees a pattern of behavior they think is safe can never make them safe to associate with people and other animals.  Let's make IB a safe City.  Email me at rinakeri@yahoo.com
