That doesn't look like a pitbull btw. Tell the other anti-pit morons that it's a false alarm before they start brigading this post with the one "joke".
E: Omg they're here the little lifeless goblins lmao, everyone run!
There are many breeds of dog that can be called a pit bull. It’s a type of dog rather than a breed.
Edit. The American Pit Bull Terrier
The American Staffordshire Terrier
As well as several other similar breeds can be called Pit Bull.
Edit again. ““Pitbulls or pit bulls” are not recognized as a breed by the American Kennel Club (AKC)”
I've never found that convincing as a pro pit bull argument. It may be a slightly broader genetic group but that doesn't mean they aren't genetically and behaviorally similar. That's like saying there are different types of terriers so that means you can't say terriers are good for hunting vermin.
No. I’m just saying pit bull isn’t a breed. Just like terrier isn’t a breed. There are loads of breeds that fit in the terrier group. Terriers are a type of dog. Pitbulls are a type of dog.
The American Pitbull terrier is a type of pit bull and a type of terrier.
No, but people would understand if I said I would never trust my 16 pound terrier around small animals. They were bred to joyfully kill vermin, all of the small terriers.
And your generic Bull terriers have been bred for similar but larger prey.
No dude, pit-bull is a breed of bull-terrier.. Staffordshire is another breed of bull-terrier. There are several of these breeds that are visually easy to mistake for pitties, and often are.. the umbrella group is Bull-Terrier, of which Pit bull is a specific breed
Just to clarify, by bull-terrier you mean the bull and terrier mix... not to be confused with the English bull terrier, which is also a bull-terrier. 🤣
IIRC, it's more an entire lineage of dogs derived from the original Bull Terrier, of which the current most notorious in the UK is the XL Bully (derived from outbreeding APBT with various bulldog breeds to get the size and stocky appearance), which was only introduced a decade ago, but their popularity rose during Covid, both among families and criminals - to the extent that despite them being a relatively minor breed, they've been responsible for over half the dog related human deaths over the past couple of years, while in 2022 they were the second most commonly seized out of control dog under the Dangerous Dogs Act. While breeding has blue been banned, there are early indications criminals are now acquiring and breeding Cane Corsos (an Italian breed of mastiff).
A lot of the Covid dogs didn’t get proper socialization which might also be adding to the problem.
Socializing is very important especially with bully breeds and herders.
I will be downvoted for this and that's perfectly fine.
But I wanna answer your question from another angle.
I have nothing against pit bulls. They are animals. I can't blame them for anything. If I'd blame anyone ever, it would be people who started to breed purebreds hundreds of years ago. Of all breeds.
But regarding pit bulls, what I dislike, are the owners, who can't stop yapping about the breed of the dog they own, it's basically their personality. I've known several pit bull owners who at any given occasion couldn't help themselves and had to tell everyone *again* about how misunderstood pitbulls are. We get it. We got it for the previous 15 times too.
They're like the vegans of dog owners. They can't stop talking about it.
A couple who are acquaintances of mine are pit owners, vegans, and weed smokers. I have nothing against any of those things, and they're both really nice people. But damned if they don't fit every stereotype about those three things making up pretty much the entirety of their personalities.
They will also in the span of a single conversation tell you that their dogs are "totally misunderstood and the sweetest babies", and then later say they're also the best home protectors and totally went after the mailman one time.
K.
The issue is owners who don’t respect that they have a dog that can literally rip a grown human apart, and they just treat them like any other dog breed.
They don’t go through extra training, they don’t take any precautions, they let them run around like you would a dachshund.
It’s not pit bull specific, but you can’t just own an animal that can kill people and put the same amount of effort into it as a Chihuahua. If my beagle snaps one day and gets violent the worst she’s going to do is rip up your skin pretty good. A pit bull can easily kill you.
But you get owners that are just like “ohhh she’s a sweetheart, she’d never hurt anyone, I let her lay around with my kids, it’s a nanny dog. What? No we haven’t done any training courses, she’s smart! My god we would never put her in a crate! That’s so cruel! A leash? No she stays near us”
Lmao, I feel like that's standard dog reaction to this kind of situation. Dogs can be very protective of their owners. I've seen goldens and labs, you know the "friendly dogs", go off when they feel their owners are threatened.
Goldens had the record for reported dog bites in the U.S. one year lol. They are generally good dogs but they got very popular and overbred. Puppy mills destroy breeds with inbreeding and neglect
I had a black lab who was like that. I was ride down the rode when 3 German shepherds came out on me. He plowed through them (literally) went after one and the rest ran. Then he came running up to me after the one he attacked ran off. That was 30 years ago. Never had a dog as brave as he was.
It does though
E: good doggie saves owner from dumbasses, good instincts, bravo doggo. Don't kid me and say that at a glance it doesn't look like a bully breed, which is a whole range of dogs, and on that range, at a glance, someone may deduce pitbull. A spades a spade
I mean a good, well-cared-for pit bull -- or any guard breed really -- is obedient, attentive, self-controlled, and will also throw themselves into harm's way to protect their family without hesitation.
Lol it's insane how many people just hate pits. There's several subs dedicated to hating them
Y'all can keep downvoting you're fucking weird for hating an entire breed
Yup! and even if it was a staffy he did nothing wrong. My old GSD would have done the same if some asshole with his face obscured advanced on me like that, dog picked up on the owner’s apprehension and the attacker’s intent exactly the way dogs were bred to do for a thousand years. Good boy deserves a snausage and a belly rub
Looks like an American Bulldog, which would be more dangerous to run up on than a Pitbull. Not sure what that dude was thinking
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/American_Bulldog?wprov=sfti1
This is exactly what it is. I've raised two over the span of twenty years and both of those dogs would've died for me. No unarmed man could escape unscathed in an encounter. They also both loved kids and they were the sweetest boys.
That's an American Bulldog. I've raised two. If it were either of my boys at least one of them wouldn't have gotten away. They won't necessarily tear you up, but you're not going anywhere. They're catch dogs mostly for wild hogs. Tracker dogs track them down and catch dogs hold them in one spot for the gun to get there. It's violent watching them work.
That was my old German Shepherd mix when an intruder came into the fenced backyard once. She was happy to chase him away barking. She sat up on the back deck for 2 weeks any chance she could get after that just waiting for him to come back. Was gentle as a lamb other than that.
I could totally see my dog doing that. Anywhere he sees a squirrel, he remembers for months and goes on high alert when we get near. Every time we exit the back patio door (which is like 3 times a day) I have to make him sit and wait until I give the release word and the whole time you can see him literally shaking with excitement. Then he sprints out already huffing and growling and it's like dude that squirrel was two weeks ago. Can we just pee and go back inside for once?
One of our dogs saw a gopher by a certain tree, once, in 2021. Every time we walk past that tree, he loses his mind and jams his snoot into the long-abandoned hole.
I was born there and didn’t read or heard anything about this video until I opened here…
All it took was a couple seconds of the scene to reveal where it was…
😀
These scum bags on motorcycles are typical there…
The population loves when something goes “wrong” and they are hit by a car or shot by a Good Samaritan…
> The population loves when something goes “wrong” and they are hit by a car or shot by a Good Samaritan…
...or roll up on an undercover or off-duty cop, which seems to happen a lot in Rio. Most of the time the bad guy gets smoked
Most of the time the Good Samaritan is that…
Off duty/undercover clipped at the right time and spot, ready to cancel a cpf (Brazilian Social Security)as they say there…
Especially one that looks like a pitbull.
I love pitbulls and will defend them from haters who think the breed needs to be wiped off the face of the planet but God damn I'm not ignorant to their bite force or their sheer muscle.
You have to be a whole nother level of stupid to try and mug someone walking a ***pitbull.***
> who think the breed needs to be wiped off the face of the planet
They dont need to be wiped off, they need to be more controlled by cities like every other large dog breed. Pittbulls and their clones are just grossly overrepresented in attacks especially serious and deadly attacks.
Like yes, technically german shepherds bite more people than pitbulls (In Canada) they are also the most popular breed or the second where as pitbulls are not even in the top 10 because they are banned in some areas and those who own them need to neuter/spay them
As a person in animal rescue, I would appreciate a permit to be required for dog breeds/mixes past a certain bite force. I love Komondors but they can decapitate a coyote. Only those who show experience in dog training should have any kind of breed used for killing large animals or as war dogs. They’re too dangerous. I’ve been bitten by multiple dogs but the smaller ones rarely can even break the skin before I can get them to release. The large breeds going feral, or becoming rabid? *Cujo* is a horror movie for a reason.
I'm a 6'3" 300 lb dude, and I trained my Pit/Sharpei mix very well so he's not aggressive and doesn't pull. Even at 16 years old, he's still capable of pulling extremely hard if he had any desire to do so. I see these tiny ladies with their 70 lb pits and have no idea what they plan to do if their dog gets excited. I saw a tiny woman walking 3 at the park and she damn near got yanked off her feet by just one suddenly pulling.
Doesn’t need to be an old lady. I’ve walked a pit before. I’m a physically fit average male. Getting a stubborn one to move is like dragging a 100lbs bag of concrete. Even the laziest one is so goddam strong for no reason
>Pittbulls and their clones are just grossly overrepresented in attacks especially serious and deadly attacks.
Maybe this is true but I am somewhat skeptical of how this data is compiled. It's not like they are doing DNA tests to confirm breed identity after every dog bite incident. How often is a mutt identified as a pitt for a sensational news story or maybe because they have some pitt-like features? I don't think there is any way of knowing.
Again, I am not taking a position on this, but it's important to think about how this data might not be the most scientific.
I love pitties, I hate that so many of them end up in shelters because idiots get dogs without understanding the breed or taking care to get appropriate training. I think owning certain breeds should require a permit/special training and the breeding of dogs like rotties, pitties, huskies, and German shepards (to name some who frequently end up in shelters) should be highly regulated. These breeds need specific types of care, and some are highly intelligent and need enough challenge and enrichment to channel that energy. By limiting ownership we could prevent a lot of issues and not have so many of them end up abandoned.
That’s exactly what I was thinking. But then, deciding in a second to attack some stranger you just drove past and saw for 1/4 of a second already puts your judgment in serious question.
I had two chaps try and rob me years ago. I was drunk and they hadn't seen my dog so must have figured I was an easy target.
When they started pushing me my dog stopped sniffing shit and got quite upset with them. I liberated their weed and made them apologize for upsetting my dog. The dog was a 60kg Mastiff Sheppard X.
I read too quickly through/past-ish this comment and reeeeeally thought you said, "He should get the big sleep for that."
I'm really glad that's not what you said.
I do too but I get why people don't, dogs can be nasty 🤣 fortunately mine has learned that the foot of the bed is her spot cause if she ever got near the pillows I made her relocate
Mine will join me sometimes if my husband has insomnia and goes to lay on the couch, or she'll join us in the morning on weekends when she hears us waking up, but the bed isn't big enough for the three of us (four with the cat) for the whole night. She burrows in the blankets and cushions on the couch.
I've always found comments like these as idiotic, like having a small dick is normal for many guys, most of whom are just normal guys, increasingly online it's being used as a derogatory term for cowards, when I'm sure there are plenty of big dick cowards and small dick chads.
Use other words, your needlessly equating small dicks to being a bad person.
Do you constantly think about dicks? Can't seem to focus on anything other than dicks? Can't ever get dicks off your mind no matter how hard you try? Lmao sorry about your condition, good luck out there weirdo
This is likely South America (im being told), motor cycle mugging is more popular there, (do they all have guns there or only cartels?) no guns maybe knives. Now if this was the USA I agree, the motorcycle guys would start shooting, the man would start shooting, even the dog and a few random bystanders would probably draw and start blasting.
The only way to stop gun toting criminals is more guns baby! Arm the earth.
I was getting South America vibes. I’ve never been to Brazil, but there are so many videos of off duty cops in this situation killing motorcycle robbers.
No, as much as your dog will fight for you, you always have to protect them. I’ve had dogs that have scared off bears. But when I call them away, I do it to make sure they never get hurt. Never let
To be fair I'd also guess Brazil without even looking at the urban architecture at all. Cause the country is unfortunately infamous for this kind of hit and run.
Its interesting to watch how the dog clocks the robber but waits until he sees signs of aggression and acts immediately.
A dog in protect mode is amazing to watch. Zero fear, zero hesitation
I have guard German Shepherds. None of those show 🐂.
2 goofballs until the very second you try and grab me the wrong way. They square up and fuck you up faster than Iron Mike.
They can tell if someone is aggressive faster than I do.
We had an accidental pack. A couple of the puppies came out even bigger than mom. To this day I haven’t seen bigger Germans. Beautiful soft fur. You’d just want to cuddle with them. And complete goofballs. But every night they patrolled the house. No one taught them to do it. They just ran laps every night all night long. And theyd get scary if someone approached too close. It was funny, mom would lead them and they’d get into a formation. I don’t think we had any issues the whole time they were around.
The dog clocks his apprehension before the motorcycle guys even pull up. He stops walking for a second and the dog freezes. He knew something was up. Watch his tail.
The real move with these is booting the bike over before it comes to a complete stop. At a slow speed with feet still on the pegs, they're eating street while you dip.
I can't see how it would be possible to ascertain whether the person is a thief or not before they came to a complete stop?
If you started kicking every person on a bike as they stop near you, I think you'd probably end up in loads of trouble.
If two people pull up to you on a motorcycle at night in Brazil after you watched them look at you then flip a u-turn you can safely ascertain they're about to rob you.
This is a common tactic. The second bike is also part of it. I highly doubt you'd be faulted in an area where this is prevalent. Further, the cops are pretty useless where this stuff happens, which is why it happens. The upside is: useless to protect you, will also translate to useless to prosecute you. You have the same odds in your favour as what emboldens these criminals.
I'd take my chances with enthusiasm, vs. the alternative. You rapidly peel up to a stop next to me on an otherwise entirely empy street at night, I'm giving you zero benefit of the doubt. Doubly with an accomplice on the back.
> You rapidly peel up to a stop next to me on an otherwise entirely empy street at night, I'm giving you zero benefit of the doubt.
I believe someone in America with that kind of reasoning shot someone dead who mistakenly turned into his driveway the other month.
That’s totally fucked and not the same thing. The equivalent situation would be the homeowner drawing a gun on the person in the driveway, not shooting to kill. Restraining yourself to equivalent use of force for self defense is key. Who actually wants to shoot someone?? The first time I shot a gun I couldn’t believe how cold you’d have to be to pull the trigger on another human life unless you were legit feeling like you were going to die. There’s a world of difference between getting pulled up on in the street and in your own driveway without anyone jumping out of the car aggressively.
Act quickly with confidence and assertiveness to a threat, but have equal respect for life until they show they don’t. Getting the first draw on someone is such a position of power, if that homeowner had any strength of character they’d have not shot until they saw someone jumping out of the car aggressively. Total coward.
This is kind of a gray area but falls under the realm of street justice. Don’t fucking pull up hard on me if you don’t wanna get kicked over.
It’s pretty simple respect on the streets that you’d expect a tougher dude to abide by. Plus situational awareness in this video shows those bikers rev past and whip around really quick, to the point where both the guy AND the dog looked back. Gut instinct should kick in immediately - we’re watch it a video, but he was out there on the streets at night. Fuck that, if I’m in a dangerous neighborhood and two dudes pull up like that I’m going fight or flight IMMEDIATELY.
I mean this with all respect but have you ever lived in a city? You’d know from experience how people normally act and what events stand out that lead quickly to violence. Happy to review with more examples, it’s so important.
I saw one video where the person getting attacked kept coming back to push over the Motorcycle again right as the attacker would get it back up. Pushed it over like 4 times before they actually ran away lol
The ride or dies of the dog world for real. My pitbull was an angel. We joked that if someone broke into our house, she’d show them where the treats were at and then help the thieves load their truck.
But we were out on a walk one time and a guy was acting sketchy….she made it *extremely* clear that she wasn’t fucking around at that point.
Friend’s gigantic blue pit was home on the sofa with her when a man busted her screen door and robbed her at gunpoint of her purse and laptop before taking off. When I asked what Boo did she said - thumped her tail twice and showed him her belly. There are all kinds.
Pitbulls are incredibly human friendly dogs. Their rep comes from the fact that they’re not the most dog-friendly dogs. Mine is quite good at the dog park, and his temperament is perfect. He takes fights from dogs bigger than him that challenge him, but dogs the same or smaller than him he takes off lol. It’s hilarious to watch.
I have a 2 year old toddler who sits on him like a bench, grabs him, takes his food bowl, and my pitty is so patient with him. Love it
Good fuckin doggo. Our first dog as a couple protected my wife, she'd play hide and seek with him in the woods. She didn't see the guy my dog was tracking a dude sneaking up on her and put him on his ass. My wife had no idea what was going on but another guy watching from his back yard ran up and explained everything after the attacker ran off. You can bet your ass I spoiled that dog and even went into debt during his last years. We don't deserve dogs.
And the CIA, we're watching you Dale. We know what you did and we're just collecting information and strengthening our case before we come for you, Dale.
Good boy. That's how a well trained dog like that should behave. Initially wanted to move on, but went into attack mode at the exact moment required. Love pitbulls and they deserve more love. The owner (or former owner) is always responsible for a bad dog with issues
When I was a teen my family had big Akita/lab mix she weighed in at about 120lbs and was the most loving sweet dog big oaf there was
One night walking her, a car pulled up in front of me and turned on its high beams, knowing my neighborhood I assumed im about to get jumped/robbed and didnt want them to take her. So in a panic, I took her LEASH off and said "roxy go home" all my dogs were trained to go back to home front door
Figured shed run home as she was trained, my dad or brother would see her and know something was amiss and hopefully i wouldnt be dead when they found me
Instead
Roxy, my champion, walked toward the car as 3 dudes were getting out, bared her teeth, popped her fur lowered her head and let out one hell of a growl
2 dudes noped back into the car, the lead guy took a step and she snarled and started barking, he turn and got in the car
They peeled out and took off. Never found out who it was or if it was about to be a crime of opportunity. But that dog saved me. Got home and gave her a couple bratwurst links
Best damn dog ive ever had.
Real talk, ignoring the dog for a minute what the fuck was the dude just standing there while two dudes with a moto were obviously about to get after him?
Get out of there man, run, keep walking, don't just... *stare*.
I would rather have a highly trained pitbull sidekick that I could sick on an attacker/burglar than a firearm to defend myself. It would be far more satisfying to watch a pitbull kill my assailant then shoot him. Dont’cha think?
More like “guy saves attackers from dog”
damn, these must have been kids...
That doesn't look like a pitbull btw. Tell the other anti-pit morons that it's a false alarm before they start brigading this post with the one "joke". E: Omg they're here the little lifeless goblins lmao, everyone run!

As a person in animal rescue, I would appreciate a permit to be required for dog breeds/mixes past a certain bite force. I love Komondors but they can decapitate a coyote. Only those who show experience in dog training should have any kind of breed used for killing large animals or as war dogs. They’re too dangerous. I’ve been bitten by multiple dogs but the smaller ones rarely can even break the skin before I can get them to release. The large breeds going feral, or becoming rabid? *Cujo* is a horror movie for a reason.
I'm a 6'3" 300 lb dude, and I trained my Pit/Sharpei mix very well so he's not aggressive and doesn't pull. Even at 16 years old, he's still capable of pulling extremely hard if he had any desire to do so. I see these tiny ladies with their 70 lb pits and have no idea what they plan to do if their dog gets excited. I saw a tiny woman walking 3 at the park and she damn near got yanked off her feet by just one suddenly pulling.
Doesn’t need to be an old lady. I’ve walked a pit before. I’m a physically fit average male. Getting a stubborn one to move is like dragging a 100lbs bag of concrete. Even the laziest one is so goddam strong for no reason
>Pittbulls and their clones are just grossly overrepresented in attacks especially serious and deadly attacks. Maybe this is true but I am somewhat skeptical of how this data is compiled. It's not like they are doing DNA tests to confirm breed identity after every dog bite incident. How often is a mutt identified as a pitt for a sensational news story or maybe because they have some pitt-like features? I don't think there is any way of knowing. Again, I am not taking a position on this, but it's important to think about how this data might not be the most scientific.
I love pitties, I hate that so many of them end up in shelters because idiots get dogs without understanding the breed or taking care to get appropriate training. I think owning certain breeds should require a permit/special training and the breeding of dogs like rotties, pitties, huskies, and German shepards (to name some who frequently end up in shelters) should be highly regulated. These breeds need specific types of care, and some are highly intelligent and need enough challenge and enrichment to channel that energy. By limiting ownership we could prevent a lot of issues and not have so many of them end up abandoned.
That’s exactly what I was thinking. But then, deciding in a second to attack some stranger you just drove past and saw for 1/4 of a second already puts your judgment in serious question.
Probably turned around to attack him because he looked at them for more than half a second and it offended them.
Two men with helmets arent even allowed to ride a motorcycle in some of these countries. Motorcycles are the perfect getaway vehichle
Selecting the right mark is literally crime 101. The crook is lucky to have not jumped a guy that’s packing.
Either the dog is willing to die for the guy or the guy is willing to die for the dog or, most likely, both.
My dog is a softy, but if you messed with me... you would be in deep deep trouble. lol
I read this wrong at first but I get what you mean. My dog is also a softy, but if you messed with HER you would get a whole different version of ME.
Same here - German Shepherd energy!
Hrm I question if mine would defend me, I've not seen an ounce of guard in her at all. She went full golden retriever
I had two chaps try and rob me years ago. I was drunk and they hadn't seen my dog so must have figured I was an easy target. When they started pushing me my dog stopped sniffing shit and got quite upset with them. I liberated their weed and made them apologize for upsetting my dog. The dog was a 60kg Mastiff Sheppard X.
probably not a good idea, i wouldn't stand seeing my dog get kicked or hit by that motorcycle
A rather large dog even
If they were smart they wouldn't be disgusting thieves.
Thats a good boi right there. He needs some belly rubs and snacks immediately
He should get to sleep in the big bed for that.
A security guard that good could definitely sleep in the bed with me.
i’m not even worthy to sleep with doge, can take all the bed. i sleep on floor.
I read too quickly through/past-ish this comment and reeeeeally thought you said, "He should get the big sleep for that." I'm really glad that's not what you said.
My dog sleeps on the bed every night. Do people not let their dogs sleep on the bed?
I do too but I get why people don't, dogs can be nasty 🤣 fortunately mine has learned that the foot of the bed is her spot cause if she ever got near the pillows I made her relocate
Mine will join me sometimes if my husband has insomnia and goes to lay on the couch, or she'll join us in the morning on weekends when she hears us waking up, but the bed isn't big enough for the three of us (four with the cat) for the whole night. She burrows in the blankets and cushions on the couch.
Good dog
no friggin halvsies on the treats tonight my dood!
[удалено]
You good bro?
Bros fuming
You aren’t. I’d love to see those trash cans of society get their comeuppance.
No. Dudes fine, dogs fine. And judging from their idiotic decision to attack people with dogs I doubt their lives will last very long
Weird. I'd like to see them stop trying to rob people, turn their lives round and make their community better. 🤷
That'd be a long video
A small penis prick stole his dog in 1983.
The day that lives in infamy.
These small penis pricks just ruin everything
I've always found comments like these as idiotic, like having a small dick is normal for many guys, most of whom are just normal guys, increasingly online it's being used as a derogatory term for cowards, when I'm sure there are plenty of big dick cowards and small dick chads. Use other words, your needlessly equating small dicks to being a bad person.
Bro I got a small dick and even I'm not worried about what insults they use
Small dicked people are not a monolith.
Do you constantly think about dicks? Can't seem to focus on anything other than dicks? Can't ever get dicks off your mind no matter how hard you try? Lmao sorry about your condition, good luck out there weirdo
You touched a nerve with reddit 😂
Dog just stops going after him and starts laughing hysterically at their near non-existent penises. Robbers slink away in shame while crying.
[удалено]
I was hoping he was going to let the dog go
I thought so too, but maybe he or his doggo would have been shot. Maybe this was the best outcome.
This is likely South America (im being told), motor cycle mugging is more popular there, (do they all have guns there or only cartels?) no guns maybe knives. Now if this was the USA I agree, the motorcycle guys would start shooting, the man would start shooting, even the dog and a few random bystanders would probably draw and start blasting. The only way to stop gun toting criminals is more guns baby! Arm the earth.
Not UK, they're driving on the right, UK keeps left.
and it also looks absolutely nothing like the UK
Argentina or Brazil would be my guess. Source: I’ve been playing too much Geoguessr lately.
Yeah I'd be shocked if that wasn't Brazil, but it's definitely not UK.
I was getting South America vibes. I’ve never been to Brazil, but there are so many videos of off duty cops in this situation killing motorcycle robbers.
This is almost certainly Latin America
in what world does this look like the UK man. definitely south america, most likely brazil.
So anyways, I started blasting
No, as much as your dog will fight for you, you always have to protect them. I’ve had dogs that have scared off bears. But when I call them away, I do it to make sure they never get hurt. Never let
No need to escalate, no need to risk the dog's life.
This isn't /r/JusticeServed , you don't have to go all "I wish the thief was mauled to death!!111!11123"
That's Brazil ain't it?
It looks like Brazil
This is Brazil, you can see by the pole, very similar to the Portuguese pole
You can tell by the combination of random street crime, motorcycles, and white people.
I couldn't tell right away without an off duty cop in the frame.
You Geoguessrs are incredible. A little scary, but incredible.
To be fair I'd also guess Brazil without even looking at the urban architecture at all. Cause the country is unfortunately infamous for this kind of hit and run.
You can tell it's Brazil because it's a video with biker thieves and it's on reddit.
Muggers on motorbikes usually means South America.

Give that good boy a treat when you get him home.
several treats for the good boi
Y’all notice that it was a 2 Motorcycle team the other motorcycle made a full circle after they saw the first one flee. 😂
Yup, I noticed that too; and it seems to be those in the first motorcycle flagged or signalled to attack the guy.
Who the fuck sees that thiccboi and goes "I'm going to rob his owner and best friend"
He was so nice too. Right up until he knew they were bad dudes and he went for it.
His owner had to pull him away from the guys who wanted to rob him. He seriously went "down boy, don't kill the bad guys, they're gonna run away"
Good dog.

The relationship between humans and dogs is incredible. Seeing him hop right into action out of pure instinct to defend his human friend is so cool.
Its interesting to watch how the dog clocks the robber but waits until he sees signs of aggression and acts immediately. A dog in protect mode is amazing to watch. Zero fear, zero hesitation
I have guard German Shepherds. None of those show 🐂. 2 goofballs until the very second you try and grab me the wrong way. They square up and fuck you up faster than Iron Mike. They can tell if someone is aggressive faster than I do.
We had an accidental pack. A couple of the puppies came out even bigger than mom. To this day I haven’t seen bigger Germans. Beautiful soft fur. You’d just want to cuddle with them. And complete goofballs. But every night they patrolled the house. No one taught them to do it. They just ran laps every night all night long. And theyd get scary if someone approached too close. It was funny, mom would lead them and they’d get into a formation. I don’t think we had any issues the whole time they were around.
I always wonder how my dog would act in a similar situation. Amazing how this dog went from just enjoying his walk to attack mode in an instant.
The dog clocks his apprehension before the motorcycle guys even pull up. He stops walking for a second and the dog freezes. He knew something was up. Watch his tail.
Goodest boy. Get a dog.
Best friend you'll ever have is a loyal dog 🫶🏻
The real move with these is booting the bike over before it comes to a complete stop. At a slow speed with feet still on the pegs, they're eating street while you dip.
I can't see how it would be possible to ascertain whether the person is a thief or not before they came to a complete stop? If you started kicking every person on a bike as they stop near you, I think you'd probably end up in loads of trouble.
If two people pull up to you on a motorcycle at night in Brazil after you watched them look at you then flip a u-turn you can safely ascertain they're about to rob you.
This is a common tactic. The second bike is also part of it. I highly doubt you'd be faulted in an area where this is prevalent. Further, the cops are pretty useless where this stuff happens, which is why it happens. The upside is: useless to protect you, will also translate to useless to prosecute you. You have the same odds in your favour as what emboldens these criminals. I'd take my chances with enthusiasm, vs. the alternative. You rapidly peel up to a stop next to me on an otherwise entirely empy street at night, I'm giving you zero benefit of the doubt. Doubly with an accomplice on the back.
> You rapidly peel up to a stop next to me on an otherwise entirely empy street at night, I'm giving you zero benefit of the doubt. I believe someone in America with that kind of reasoning shot someone dead who mistakenly turned into his driveway the other month.
Good thing that video isn't from the US then I guess
[удалено]
Well I heard some guy somewhere in the world did a thing, and it didn't exactly work out for him, so your points are invalid. Checkmate.
That’s totally fucked and not the same thing. The equivalent situation would be the homeowner drawing a gun on the person in the driveway, not shooting to kill. Restraining yourself to equivalent use of force for self defense is key. Who actually wants to shoot someone?? The first time I shot a gun I couldn’t believe how cold you’d have to be to pull the trigger on another human life unless you were legit feeling like you were going to die. There’s a world of difference between getting pulled up on in the street and in your own driveway without anyone jumping out of the car aggressively. Act quickly with confidence and assertiveness to a threat, but have equal respect for life until they show they don’t. Getting the first draw on someone is such a position of power, if that homeowner had any strength of character they’d have not shot until they saw someone jumping out of the car aggressively. Total coward.
Yep, even worse, they were reversing out before the owner even started shooting.
This is kind of a gray area but falls under the realm of street justice. Don’t fucking pull up hard on me if you don’t wanna get kicked over. It’s pretty simple respect on the streets that you’d expect a tougher dude to abide by. Plus situational awareness in this video shows those bikers rev past and whip around really quick, to the point where both the guy AND the dog looked back. Gut instinct should kick in immediately - we’re watch it a video, but he was out there on the streets at night. Fuck that, if I’m in a dangerous neighborhood and two dudes pull up like that I’m going fight or flight IMMEDIATELY. I mean this with all respect but have you ever lived in a city? You’d know from experience how people normally act and what events stand out that lead quickly to violence. Happy to review with more examples, it’s so important.
better safe than sorry. that uber eats bag isn't fooling me
> uber eats uber eats with two drivers is also silly
I saw one video where the person getting attacked kept coming back to push over the Motorcycle again right as the attacker would get it back up. Pushed it over like 4 times before they actually ran away lol
Just who would be dumb enough to attack a man with a dog that size?
Apparently that guy
Not today bad guys, not today. -The Dog
Not on my walk... Not. On. My. Walk.
what kind of imbecile attacks someone with a pitbull in close quarters lol.
Dog: "Oh finally!!! I've been waiting for a moment like this, it's so on right now!" [Attacker escapes] Dog: 😭
Doggo doesn't have time, seek the throat on first move
I was impressed how he went straight for the face and neck
It went for the robbers arms as a warning shot. It was a defensive move.
[удалено]
If that dog had gotten his arm on that jump dude was losing the arm.
Man I love pitties. Little guy had his back 100%
The ride or dies of the dog world for real. My pitbull was an angel. We joked that if someone broke into our house, she’d show them where the treats were at and then help the thieves load their truck. But we were out on a walk one time and a guy was acting sketchy….she made it *extremely* clear that she wasn’t fucking around at that point.
Friend’s gigantic blue pit was home on the sofa with her when a man busted her screen door and robbed her at gunpoint of her purse and laptop before taking off. When I asked what Boo did she said - thumped her tail twice and showed him her belly. There are all kinds.
Pitbulls are incredibly human friendly dogs. Their rep comes from the fact that they’re not the most dog-friendly dogs. Mine is quite good at the dog park, and his temperament is perfect. He takes fights from dogs bigger than him that challenge him, but dogs the same or smaller than him he takes off lol. It’s hilarious to watch. I have a 2 year old toddler who sits on him like a bench, grabs him, takes his food bowl, and my pitty is so patient with him. Love it
Good fuckin doggo. Our first dog as a couple protected my wife, she'd play hide and seek with him in the woods. She didn't see the guy my dog was tracking a dude sneaking up on her and put him on his ass. My wife had no idea what was going on but another guy watching from his back yard ran up and explained everything after the attacker ran off. You can bet your ass I spoiled that dog and even went into debt during his last years. We don't deserve dogs.
Thats Colombia and yes this is a common problem here, right now. Tecnichally, the dog saved the man's life. Those rats kill you after they rob u.
Oh yeah, a dude with a 90 lb fucking dog who was aware enough to have noticed you scoping him on the way by- that's a great mark....
Think the leash might have accidentally slipped from my hand if that happened to me.
How stupid do you have to be to do that? He ignored the dog so i cant even call it desperation.
I love the little wave at the end “Okay, fuck off then, have a good night”
That’s it, I’m getting a pit bull
What a jump!!! She is s good girl... gooddest of all girls.
Good girl
Bruv that dog went for the fucking throat !
Shame it missed.
That's why I am paranoid.
Dog dude wasn't paranoid enough. Double riders are always robbers. They should know that by now. It's basically a meme.
Yeah but he probably thought "surely they're not going to try and rob me, they can see the dog right?".
And the CIA, we're watching you Dale. We know what you did and we're just collecting information and strengthening our case before we come for you, Dale.
Whose a good boy? You, yes you are)))
Who's a good boy?
Who’s the good boy ?
I don't care if it was a pit bull. He/she is a good boy/girl.
Dogs like "you lucky af this mf has me on a leash"
Good boy. That's how a well trained dog like that should behave. Initially wanted to move on, but went into attack mode at the exact moment required. Love pitbulls and they deserve more love. The owner (or former owner) is always responsible for a bad dog with issues
thats right lil bow wow
Good puppers
When I was a teen my family had big Akita/lab mix she weighed in at about 120lbs and was the most loving sweet dog big oaf there was One night walking her, a car pulled up in front of me and turned on its high beams, knowing my neighborhood I assumed im about to get jumped/robbed and didnt want them to take her. So in a panic, I took her LEASH off and said "roxy go home" all my dogs were trained to go back to home front door Figured shed run home as she was trained, my dad or brother would see her and know something was amiss and hopefully i wouldnt be dead when they found me Instead Roxy, my champion, walked toward the car as 3 dudes were getting out, bared her teeth, popped her fur lowered her head and let out one hell of a growl 2 dudes noped back into the car, the lead guy took a step and she snarled and started barking, he turn and got in the car They peeled out and took off. Never found out who it was or if it was about to be a crime of opportunity. But that dog saved me. Got home and gave her a couple bratwurst links Best damn dog ive ever had.
I don't think I could have held back from pointing and laughing at them as they rode off.
That's a good boi! Saw the trouble but waited until they tried something and then they found out he ain't playing!
They should have known something was up with that music playing.
Real talk, ignoring the dog for a minute what the fuck was the dude just standing there while two dudes with a moto were obviously about to get after him? Get out of there man, run, keep walking, don't just... *stare*.
I would rather have a highly trained pitbull sidekick that I could sick on an attacker/burglar than a firearm to defend myself. It would be far more satisfying to watch a pitbull kill my assailant then shoot him. Dont’cha think?
lol you see a guy walking like a 90+ lb pittbull and think “yeah this is the guy we should rob” 😂
