A neighbor's Akita dug under a rickety fence and mauled to death a Pug puppy. There are five dogs living in one backyard and they are constantly kept outside unattended.
The first posting about the 3 week old baby was particularly heart breaking because it was SO PREVENTABLE. 17 yr old mom and grandmother go to chit chat and smoke, probably forgot they even had a baby in the house. So tragic. I'm glad the mother was charged; I mean it is asinine that there were basically 2 mothers in that house and neither of them remembered there was a dog or a baby? Pure ignorance should be a felony in this case. As the mother of a 2yr old boy I just don't understand such carelessness or lack of care period.
