Dog Attack Injures 2, Kills Smaller Dog
Posted on Mar 17, 2009
A brutal dog-on-dog attack ends with one animal dead and two people injured on Thursday on Madison's East Side, authorities said.
Police said that a pit bull-like dog is being blamed for attacking a smaller dog that friends said was named Rocco in the 5200 block of Piccadilly Drive just before 7 p.m. Police said the owners of both animals were injured trying to break up the fight.
Authorities said that it ultimately took a Taser and a catch pole to gain control of the larger dog as witnesses watched.
"We were inside and all of a sudden, I heard screaming and the kids were screaming and I thought the dog got off the leash and got hit by a car," said witness Shanda Martel. "Then, they were in the middle of the road and the pit bull is just whipping the puppy up in the air like a rag doll. I mean, he's torn to shreds."
Martel says the larger dog's owner tried to get her dog off of the smaller one it was biting, but couldn't because her dog wasn't wearing a collar and she couldn't get a grip on him.
The owner of the larger dog surrendered the animal to animal control officials and is being held by the Dane County Humane Society. Police said that the dog had a history of aggressive behavior.
The dog's owner was cited for letting her dog run free and causing injury off her property.
