This woman and her dog Tank are both victims of irresponsible owners and now they're being drawn into the pit bull hater world in spite of the fact there's been no confirmation of the breed involved and regardless of what breed or type the dog was there's a vet bill to be payed.
And our favorite pit bull hating power ranger in true foamer style shares a graphic video of the victim in his hate group and adds his own bias narrative to the post without even mentioning the Gofundme campaign to help the victims deal with the costs.
How can these people sleep at night?

Pittbull had his jaw locked on Tank's face. Once he finally let go there, he went under him and locked onto his stomach. Also bit his leg. I'm sure his jaw need stitches as it is tore open, not sure as to other injuries as of yet.
As you can see by the extremely long post below by Tank's owner dog attacks are not breed issues in this instance there was a loose dog, irresponsible owners and many other facets if you read the comment below this post by a neighbor relating the "dogs" owner (breed not confirmed).
Since talking to the owner of the pitbull, and getting more info from my girls once they calmed down Sun., and the piece of info told by a neighbor, this is what came about Sat. I will not post names of the minors involved....Child A came knocking on my door around 11:30 am or so asking if Keira & Kyra could come out and play. I went to get them. They went outside to find Child A, Child D, & Child R with the pitbull. They told my girls to grab the pit by his collar, Keira said no. Child D screamed "grab the collar" both my girls said no again. Keira & Kyra walked to the other side of the dog house and started clapping their hands to get Tank to go to them away from the other dog. Kyra clapped again and thats when the pitbull attacked. Come to find out the neighbor said Child A brought the dog to our yard. And from the owner, Child A, Child D & Child R told the cops they were trying to find out who the dog belonged to. Now mind you, these 3 girls know full damn well that the Pit did not belong to us as they have all been here several thousand times playing at our house. I do feel that the owner should have taken better measures to make sure the dog didn't get out, BUT if those 3 girls wouldn't have brought the dog to our yard, it quite possibly would have never happened to begin with. These 3 girls are liars and the 2 of them along with their brother child I (especially) are the ones who ride/walk in the alley directly behind Tank and provoke and torment him. There is a sidewalk that goes all the way around the block, why not use that if my dog is so aggressive.....because they rather torment him. I'm sure that the one that started all the shit about me and how Tank is aggressive/left outside constantly is the parent of the 3 kids that she never taught that its not ok to torment a dog, especially one that is 4 times your size, and when it was said they have lived there 7 mo. cuz that puts it about right at that timeframe that those kids showed up. Tank is 4 years old and you all can see he has not spent his entire life (or a decade like I seen 1 say) outside. He doesn't bark at cars driving by, only when people walk by cuz he is a protector, thats how St. Bernards are. If they don't know you, their gonna bark at you. Now, I'm done with it all, I'm tired of the nasty stupid ass people that think they know it all cuz they have lived on the block for 7 mo. Tired of getting messages saying we don't deserve to have Tank and that he needs a new home. You all can believe whatever you want at this point, I'm done letting it get to me. We love our dog just as much as anyone else loves theirs!! Oh and I also seen where people were saying we were just out to get a handout with the gofundme acct. (which is probably why we barely got any donations) but let me say, I've never had another gofundme before like some people do that just ask for help with buying a car, moving expenses, flat out stupid shit. We needed help to pay the emergency vet bill, that was all we was asking for help for, nothing else, no extra, but yea I was just looking for a handout because I didn't have 600.00 in my bank acct. for something like this.
Regardless of what breed of dog was involved it could not of happened if it belonged to responsible owners and whether it's a pit bull or not doesn't change the fact the vet bill has to be paid to get Tank on the mend.
they? Just because Tank looks all muddy and the ground is muddy too don't mean he lives his entire life outside he just got out of a fight for fuck sake when all he does is spill his water bowl of course the ground would be muddy how do you expect him not to get muddy while it was happening? Yes he looks energetic but that's because he was still pumped up with adrenalin it was taken maybe 14-20 minutes after the incident happened he was still in the moment afterwards he was still bleeding like crazy in his jaw and started to stumble around due to the lose of blood like I said before we were simply stating the breed of the dog not trying to bash on the pit bull breed themselves it's all the pit bull owners that are blowing this up more than it needs to be just calm your asses down for Christ sake not all pit bulls are like your pit bulls so stop trying to act like they are and stop trying to blame us for the damn attack when the dog was in OUR YARD and on his OWN CHAIN even if Tank started the fight which I doubt he was on his own territory and was protecting where he lived for fuck sake drop the damn controversy about the pit bull bread it's not what we made it out to seem like it's the owners of pit bulls blowing this up more than it should and saying the cops shouldn't have shot the dog? He was tazed not once not twice but 5 TIMES!! What do you expect the officer do? Let the dog continue to go right back and Mail the fuck out of Tanks neck?
Now the post below is a true indication of the reality of situations like this it generally comes down to irresponsible owners regardless of what breed of dogs are involved in an attack dogs aren't responsible for securing themselves after all?
So since some want to continue to run their mouth about us here is the Timeline of yesterday, Update on Tank, and a little info about our Dog to Shut some people mouths......Tank was attacked "by another dog" yesterday between 11:45-12:00, cops left my house at 12:25 to which I had to run inside and change by bloody clothes and jump in my van to go pick my son up from Drivers Ed class that ended at 12:30. Got back home shortly after, Tanner went back to see Tank and thats when we took pics and the video. (Let me state here that I rent my house, 800.00/mo. and have been here 6 or 7 years, I was not bringing Tank into my house while he was covered in blood and still fresh blood coming from wounds) Came inside, called the Vet that the cops recommended I call, got a voicemail, left a message. Husband was trying to upload pics and video on his page at this time. Five or so min. later, Vet calls me back. Told her the situation and was told unfortunately that she could not do anything without payment at time of service. Asked her to give me an est. she said 100.00 for the emergency fee, roughly 400.00 for treatment including that fee plus anesthesia for a Large Dog. Told me to try Care Credit. Came to computer, posted pics/videos on my page, started applying for care credit. That got denied so I then made several other phone calls to Vets to which was told the same thing every time....Payment needed at time of Service. My 16 yr. old starts the Go fund me with no other options left. Then get a call from a Mr. Myers who talked to us about taking him to Celina, told him I already called there. He said he was friends with the Vet and could pull some strings to get Tank seen. Was in the Celina Vet by roughly 4 pm. after getting everyone in old clothes, taking seats out of my van, laying sheets down and getting Tank loaded up. Vet looked at Tank, we put a muzzle on him because he is not very people friendly, especially with males. Vet shaved his leg to look at wounds, said they were puncture wounds and did not want to sew up for risk of air pockets and infections. Took off muzzle so he could look at his jaw, gave clippers to my husband to shave his face, husband gave to me when I couldn't hold him tight enough. Tank then got very agitated and seen other adult males/people he did not know standing in the doorway of the room. He started growling/barking and Vet said to just put the clippers down. He then said that all wounds should heal fine on their own with the antibiotics he gave along with a pain med. Oh was also weighed here where he weighed in at a whooping 139lbs. Got a bill for 124.17 to which they are allowing us to pay as soon as we get the go fund me that is being deposited. Took tank home, everyone had to change clothes and clean up the blood from themselves, then took the kids to McDonalds to get something to eat since they had not eaten all day. Went to Tractor Supply, bought a big bag of soft treats to put his pills in, came in, got Tank into Garage and tried to get him to take the treats with the pills in it. No Luck! Went to Dollar General grabbed some hotdogs, came home, cooked one up, put pills in it and sat in the garage with him for half an hour trying to get him to eat the hotdog so he had his pills in him. Around 8pm, got a call from a Stephanie who asked how he was doing, if he made it to the vet, what happened, etc. I told her my opinion was that he really needed his face looked at better and that I believed it needed stitches. Told her I cannot get him to eat the pills with anything. She then told me she was willing to pay for Tank to be seen in Lima at the West Central Ohio Vet hospital. She would pay the initial cost of having him seen and then some. Got everyone ready again, van ready and Tank loaded back up and headed to Lima. Got there roughly 9 pm i think, got him evaluated and got an est. of cost of services they wanted to do......$441.00. They called Stephanie and then I talked to her. She paid everything for him to be treated, BUT I do have to pay back to her with the go fund me again. I AM NOT LOOKING FOR A HANDOUT IN NO WAY!! Tank was put to sleep, face shaved, belly shaved, outside of jaw stitched up and inside of mouth (which i did not see) also stitched up. Gave him his antibiotics and pain med by injection since he would not take orally. Told us to feed soft food for a while (which I had just bought a 50 lb. bag of food Fri. night) and put ice in his water to help with swelling. As of now, he still will not eat anything at all, even the soft food. Oh and Vet said he is healthy, heart, lungs and all. He does still have his winter coat which just needs shaved off. My husband works 2nd shift and my 16 yr. old is in school, Track and also works so soon as school is out and Track is over and Tanner and my husband are home at the same time, they will be able to hold him down to get it cut off. Now onto some info on Tank, HE HAS NOT SPENT HIS ENTIRE LIFE ON A CHAIN! He was a house dog for quite some time, then when I had a stalker coming into my yard and looking through my windows and sending me messages with what I was wearing while my husband worked nights at that time, we decided to put Tank outside to scare the stupid ass. Finally after some time passed, the guy stopped coming around and never heard from again. Tank then was brought back into the house where he then panted, and paced the floors from one end of the house to the other, slobbering on everything in his path and wanting back outside. We still tried to keep him in as much as possible but when I have to lock him in the kitchen which is only a 4x4 area while I am making homemade items, how is that any better for him. His hair went everywhere, on everything, and when someone came over he had to be locked up. We finally gave in and put him back outside where he likes being, bought a 300.00 shed for his dog house, put him in front of the privacy fence along my WHOLE BACK YARD, and covered anything else with the tarps. Does he Bark, why yes he does. We have neighbor kids that purposely ride/walk directly behind the fence barking/taunting him and throwing sticks and rocks over the fence at him. And another neighbor who thinks it cool to sit in his vehicle directly behind our house and rev their motor between midnight and 2 am. No he does not bark for attention, his barks are all loud, quite annoying, protection Barks!!! He is fed and watered EVERY DAY, and when it is nice out, the girls our outside too. He does get brought into the garage when it is freezing cold out, during weather advisories, etc. Dog warden was here a few weeks ago because I had forgotten his license this year and we were talking about him being outside and he said.....HE IS PERFECTLY FINE OUT THERE WHERE HE IS AT AND HE HAS ADEQUATE SHELTER! So there all you people who think you know anything at all about me, my family and my dog can just unfriend me now and be done with it!
A true community safety or victims advocate would have shared this post if he truly cared for victims as opposed to merely hating pit bulls.
Please donate and share among your friends and let's see if we can get Tank some help.
As you can see by the post below most vets won't help unless you have cash which is heart wrenching when you don't have it and your pet is injured please share and donate.
I have called several vets and everyone says payment up front. We were also denied for the Care Credit. Not sure where to go from here to get my dog taken care of. frown emoticon
Tank sure got a wooping from the "pit bull" if that's what it actually was which is doubtful for two reason
A. Tanks still alive
B. the "Pit Bull's not still attached to the poor bugger. (sarcasm)
AB Woods scrolled past all the other posts and shared this one but changed the comment as you can see below.
Pittbull had his jaw locked on Tank's face. Once he finally let go there, he went under him and locked onto his stomach. Also bit his leg. I'm sure his jaw need stitches as it is tore open, not sure as to other injuries as of yet.

The most telling part of this latest scam is that AB went past all the other posts including the go fund me for the victim and posted the graphic video for more effect and not only that but replaced her actual comment with his own pit hater narrative in true public safety advocate style?
more to come.....
