any time you have a pack of dogs, regardless of the breed (well, maybe not real small dogs) you have the risk of pack behavior that can lead to attacks/maulings and even death. Remember, every breed can be traced back to the Wolf.

Really? Been living under a rock?

The two white dogs they showed on this morning's news sure looked like boxers. They weren't pit bulls.

All that really matters is that they were dogs. Sucks for the kid.

agree, some of the most dominant/aggressive dogs I've encountered were boxers...

granted, some of the most harmless dogs I've encountered were boxers, but it doesn't surprise me to hear about aggressive ones. especially inbred-ass white ones

Just now reading other websites and it looks like the neighbors have been trying after all:

Kucker said there were four boxers and at least two other dogs in the yard; investigtors believe four of the animals were involved in the attack.

Tempers and fears are hot in this neighborhood. Neighbor Tiffany Shaw told News 8 that these dogs have attacked before and that deputies have responded.

"So I called the police. The police came out, maced one of the dogs and told me that they [the owners] would be receiving a letter in the mail and that they'd have to get rid of the dogs," she said. "There'd be a huge fine if they weren't able to afford. Nothing's happened since then; it's been over like two months ago."

Deputies had to restrain the victim's grandmother with handcuffs after she attacked a neighbor in a quarrel over the dogs.

"I'm mad as hell!" yelled the grandmother, who owns the four dogs that attacked the child.

The canines will be quarantined by animal control during the investigation.

Typical news journalist, just keep changing the story, don't worry about getting accurate information or how many times you need to revise the thing to make it sound the way you want.


LAKE WORTH, Texas - A child was rushed to the hospital Monday afternoon after being attacked by at least four dogs.
The incident happened in the 7800 block of Eastland Avenue near Lake Worth in Tarrant County.
The sheriff's department said an 18-month-old boy crawled through a pet door and managed to get into his family’s backyard while his parents were asleep.
There were four boxers and several other dogs in the yard. They bit him around his head and face.
Neighbors said they ran to help after they heard screams. The boy was bloody and in pretty bad shape when he was taken by ground ambulance to Cook Children’s Medical Center, they said.
The sheriff's department does plan to take the four boxers for observation.
Also, the boy's grandmother was detained for allegedly assaulting a neighbor who confronted her about her dogs' aggression. It is unclear if she faces any criminal charges.

Never heard of boxers ever being mean or even biting. Sucks for the kid either way.

This shit makes pisses me off. I bet these parents were high and fell sleep.

Cbs news said Four white dogs attacked him. The two white dogs i saw in the video were boxers... who knows what the other 2 dogs were.
(I honestly dont care what breed the dogs are, those dogs need to attack those parents instead)

The news reporters quotes that he got from the neighbors:

"It wasn't unusual to see them(dogs) get out from time to time"

"It wasn't unusual to for the boy, that young toddler to wander away to other houses from time to time"

This could have been prevented if the neighbors would have called Animal Control and CPS if this seemed to always happen "time to time"

and is there no law for keeping that many dogs? I live in an HOA neighborhood and our limit is 3 i believe.

And by the looks from the news report, the owners were some high class white trash, tramp stamp and all.

Didn't say they can't attack, said they won't unless aggravated or feel threatened. And I don't think a two year old is menacing enough to provoke an attack from four dogs. That's why I think they're severely mistreated or they weren't boxers, which are one of the most family friendly breeds out there.

[Denny]

Owned 3 boxer over the past 18 years, sweet, loyal, and they don't hold grudges. They don't bite unless aggravated. I don't believe this story.

Ya, because a boxer can't attack since you had THREE (count 'em, three) nice ones.

Damned Liberal media keepin' a boxa down!

My buddy was one of the first on the scene and escorted the ambulance to Cook's downtown. He has a child about this age and two boxers so it struck him harder than normal. He told me there was no way in hell the dogs were boxers. I have never heard him this shaken up after responding to a call.

[roliath]

Sure looked like Pits on the news when it showed them being taken away. Real high class people. The grandfather came up and attatched the camera man and the grandma attacked a neighbor and was arrested. ON CAMERA no less.

I sure hope you know the difference between a boxer and a pit, because all the dogs they dragged out to Animal Control were CLEARLY boxer's.
The only Pit I could see was the black one standing on top of its igloo.

My neighbor had a boxer and it had to be the meanest fucking dog that I have ever seen. Lunging at the fence while snarling and snapping at me every single time I went outside.
