Pit bull killed jogger in SS19

[CS Chua]

Reported in the Star online today.

It is bound to happen and it is sad that it did. When will dog owners learn to leash their dogs? There are show dogs and there are guard dogs. Pit bulls fall into the latter category. Owners of guard dog type must exercise caution and discipline. Even their own children can be attacked by these types of dogs. My condolences to the deceased. So sad to meet such fate while jogging.

What a terrible way to die. This is not the first and won't be the last such incidents.

I bet the dog owner is in deep s... now.

Rearing a dangerous dog like Pitbull, Rotweiler, and likes, is like holding a loaded gun (maybe a heat seeking missile).
If the owner is not careful, someone can easily be killed like in this case.

Why dog owners do not get a 10 or 20 year jail sentence when such tragedies happen in Malaysia?

Tragic, I watched that guy cover miles every day and extend my deepest condolences to his family.

I am also a dog owner, I don’t understand why anyone would want a Pit Bull. But, this dog was not a Pit Bull, it was an Old English Bull that neighbours say was a rescued dog that had been caged for years, a problem dog that should have set off alarm bells to anyone considering owning a dog.

So now we get the knee jerk reactions. Get your facts right. Don’t drag every breed into this. Dogs are what their owners make them.
Requiring all privately owned dogs be neutered would be a good reaction, a good start.
How to turn every dog owner into a responsible dog owner is beyond me, maybe mandatory training for puppy and owner?

Mandatory jail terms for dog owners more like it.

I agree, 100%, but I bet my reasons are the exact opposite of yours

If it is a car accident, the driver would be charged with manslaughter if due to negligence. And whatever damages would be awarded accordingly.

In this case, it is not the fault of the jogger, but the fault of the pitbull owner where they are responsible for the public safety for rearing such dangerous dog. First and foremost, the dog should be muzzled unless it is being caged. Pitbull is not a guard dog per se - they are bred to fight, to kill where they bite at the neck of the victim. But then, it is not a pit bull but english bull. Seriously, any sizable dog can injure or kill. imagine a toddler or a five year old child strolling along the street.

What I can say is condolence to the family of the jogger.

iSayman, you and I were in different set of world!

Crime Scene - Death man jogging. Signs of blood and perhaps broken neck. Witnesses which may include the owners or neighbours. Police from the top guns to sealed parameter there. Weapon found - Doggie - where it would be confirmed with auto seen stains. Autopsy should confirmed with DNA or hairs of the victim with signmarks of bites zsizes matching the teeth of the doggie. This is the thinking of third world mentality?

Your 1st Bolehworld mentality - 70 year old man jogging and collasped. Dog came to offer first aid emergence ?

Nayway, if it makes you happy - in your invisible world, it can be amended to dogslaughter but it is gonna to visibly clueless in legal term.

I am responsible for I have said or wrote to the best of my knowlegde with material facts, but I aint responsible for those who failed to understand or clueless about it.

As far as the cop car, it is the assumption from circumstances evidence that due to the not so bersih attack by the demonstrators as seen from the video where the windows were smashed and probable cause where the driver were hit, the car rammed into the crowd and ended crashing into the building. Mana ada Manslaughter due to neglience? From the visibly observance of youtube by Olde Mean Chef where eyes sight is not 2020. Therefore the opinons and views offered is the personal and not professional advice or statement. Kindly consult your legal representation or justice dept for clarifications or judgement.

People who were there say he fell to the ground, the gate opened, the dog ran out and attacked.
In my book that means there is something wrong with the dog, and yes the owner is responsible.

People tell me about a rescued 5 month old Rottweiler pup, chained to a gate in the hot sun, the same people then went out and got another Rottweiler and beat it with a cane, so what message is this dog getting?

Every adult dog is the product of it's owner.
I dont feel any need to defend my dog, i do feel a need to blast any irresponsible dog owner.
A man has lost his life for no reason, he was out for his morning run, he ran a lot sometimes several times a day, amazing all who saw him.
He did not deserve this.

If it had been a car accident it would have been "just" another statistic. But it was a dog, so people like me will drag out every case of "bad owner" to respond to every post of "bad dog".

A man lost his life today, i feel sad about that.
