No. A woman was walking a dog in front of my house. My kids were playing in the yard, while, I was playing with my Shih Tzu, who by the way was on a long leash. As the pit bull approached. I grabbed my dog's chain, and they approached each other as dogs do. Lady said dog was friendly, my dog went in for a sniff after the pit was sniffing the crap out of my dog, and whammo! Vice grips on my dogs head. Don't try to put the blame on us. The lady couldn't control the dog, so I kicked the living ***** out of it until he let go.
