meeshsalts Posted February 2, 2011 Report Share Posted February 2, 2011 It sounds like these huskies were allowed to run farel, but they could have been attacked by a Jack Russel in the past, Jack russels can be vicous to other dogs. But owners always blame the owner of the larger dog, Buck was attacked by two Jack Russels but because he picked one up and threw it like a rag doll, this woman started shouting your dogs attacking my dog, Luckly a passerby saw them attack buck and told the woman, so she just walked off in a huff.

davidjk Posted February 2, 2011 Report Share Posted February 2, 2011 i wonder if the smaller dog started it. micha will back down from any situation, but suki will stand her ground. i thinkt here may be more to the story than being told Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
meeshsalts Posted February 2, 2011 Report Share Posted February 2, 2011 From my experiences small dogs usualy start these things but because they are smaller it always gets turned around that it was the big dogs fault. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

aronoiiel Posted February 2, 2011 Report Share Posted February 2, 2011 That all sounds totally one sided I hate reports that only explain one part of the situation. The story doesn't really have any details in it to tell what really went on from both sides. Sad the poor pup had to die though I don't personally like jack russels they are mean little terrors everyone I've met but that's not a way for any dog to go Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rob Posted February 2, 2011 Report Share Posted February 2, 2011 Woman mauled? she has a plaster on her hand, hardly mauled, bitten yes but not mauled. Story doesn't add up, she says she never saw the huskies coming, she's out walking her dog, yet obviously carrying it, why would you be carrying a dog your walking? I'd put money on.... she was walking the dog, it started like jack russels do, sibe's took offence, she realised her little ankle biter had bitten off far more than he could chew so she picked him up, sibe's snatched the dog getting her in the process. The husky owners fault for not having his dogs on a lead, if they were he could have stopped it happening. I doubt the sibe's intentially set out hunting it like she's trying to get across.

katie mc Posted February 2, 2011 Report Share Posted February 2, 2011 oh the poor jack russel but i do have to say i dont like that breed or any other smaller dog breed,they all seem to suffer from small dog syndrome of something ,(dont want to tarnish them all though)but alot of them have a go at duke but he just bops them on there head with his paw. yeh she was hardly mauled,a lil plaster on her hand ??!! i think any dog can flip at anypoint. alot dont but theres a few that will x Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rosemary Posted February 2, 2011 Report Share Posted February 2, 2011 As mentioned above, I honestly believe that there is more to this than reported I'd like to know where the husky owner was while this was all going down ? Very sad for the JR, but especially so for the reputation of our beloved Huskies Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yamahar6wme Posted February 2, 2011 Report Share Posted February 2, 2011 dont know what to think but at the end of the day any dog can turn if you saw my sibes playing and you didnt know them you would be scared as their fur stands up and teeth on full show my mum is still scared of my male even though he is as soft as a teddy bear. i do think that the sibes should have been on leads as i know not all sibes get on with different breeds my female saft as a bottle of pop and gets on with most dogs but my male he hates other dogs will defend his teretory being sky with all might i strugle to walk them on my own if i am i have to let go of sky to grab zero to have full controll he nearly killed my mums dog when they met as he is a boxer but sky loves him. so its difficult suppose its also what they have been tought and what surroundings they have been brought up in.

I can believe it, all breeds will have the odd "bad dog" that bites for no apparent reason Husky's are no different. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rich & Kody Posted February 3, 2011 Author Report Share Posted February 3, 2011 Weird, Other sites now say they were malamutes. http://hume-leader.whereilive.com.au/news/story/dogs-impounded-by-hume-council/'>here Seems as if they escaped from a home a few kilometers from the park were the dog died. Looking around now to try and find out what the council decided on. Edit: This is from another article on how they escaped. The malamutes escaped from a home in Attwood next to a vacant lot. Council contractors damaged the fence when clearing long grass from the lot on December 28.</p> Council city infrastructure director Steve Crawley said the investigation to determine the dogs’ fate would consider how the broken fence contributed to the attack.</p> He said the dogs, which had lived with the owners for eight years, were not previously known to the council.</p> Classing them as dangerous dogs would be problematic because it required them to be housed in a marked cage, desexing, them being muzzled and on a lead in public and ongoing monitoring.</p> But he said the council’s main concern was whether the dogs could attack again. “Public risk is primarily what we are looking at here.â€Â</p> </p> Found the ruling as well</p> </p> TWO alaskan malamutes that attacked and killed a Jack Russell terrier in Attwood have been declared dangerous dogs.</p> Hume Council’s decision was complicated by the fact that the dogs escaped through a fence damaged by a council contractor.</p> </p> Not even the owners fault that they escaped. The council damaged the fence. :/ </p> </p> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alee C. Posted February 3, 2011 Report Share Posted February 3, 2011 I agree with everyone...Something just isn't adding up, I mean if there were 2 dogs, or 1 dog, or person, or anything for that matter attacking my dog I wouldn't just stand up against a post. I would do something about!!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Darc-Brittany Posted February 3, 2011 Report Share Posted February 3, 2011 I know what Jack Russel's are like, my dad's Scottish friend has one and he always tries to start fights with Kira. Good thing he ignores him because he's sooo tiny, haha. She stated that they were jumping up on her, shoulders, I'd think that her face would have some scratches or a wound of some sort. I don't believe her story at all, none of it adds up. Her dog probably provoked the attack, terrible that it happened but it will teach her to stop her dog (if she gets another one) from acting that way before it gets out of hand.

TimSchreier Posted February 3, 2011 Report Share Posted February 3, 2011 great now they are going to outlaw huskies. getter outlaw all big dogs then. Stupid people!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Miya Posted February 3, 2011 Report Share Posted February 3, 2011 Sounds like they've given those two malamutes dangerous dog status. http://hume-leader.whereilive.com.au/news/story/attwood-killer-dogs-declared-dangerous/ An unfortunate situation with too many holes lining up. Sounds like there is a lot being left unsaid in this story. Also sounds like council isn't taking ownership of their mistake (damaging the fence allowing this situation to unfold).
