"She put her body on top of Lilly’s to try and protect her after the attack started," Bennard's uncle by marriage, Jeff Gibson told USA TODAY on Saturday. "Both (dogs) started attacking her while she lay on Lilly."The two children were pronounced dead when officials arrived at the home, the sheriff's office reported.

It was not immediately known what provoked the mauling.The mauling, Gibson said, lasted about 10 minutes.The dogs – two pit bulls that belonged to the family – were euthanized at Memphis Animal Services Thursday.

The family owned the pets, Cheech and Mia, for more than eight years without a violent incident, Kelsey Canfield, the mother's best friend, told Fox News.

"I can promise you those children were her world, and if there was any inkling of danger, she would have never had those dogs near her kids," Canfield told the outlet. "Those children were everything to them, and they just have a really long journey ahead."

How do you feel about PittBull's? I posted this because my wife shared this story with me and my son was just recently participating in a "read to sheltered dogs" event where you could adopt a dog (I know brilliant).

I've heard the arguments that PittBull's get a bad wrap, but it seems time and time again they are the focal point of dogs who do these horrible acts.

And then i grew up. And i realized that those kinda dogs are a mother****er to maintain correctly. And the things i was looking for didn't matter.

Yeah, a Pitt would rip my dogs to pieces. And they ain't defending anyone from anybody.

And I don't care. Life is much easier and more pleasant with dogs that don't wig the **** out when a friend comes over.
I got fascinated by this. Some college nerd did a survey of criminals who were repeat offenders/arrested for breaking and entering. Something like 70% of the respondents said a home having a dog was the biggest reason they'd avoid breaking in, but not because of the type of dog, but because of the noise they make.

That died little good if the Pit mauls/kills another dog, child, or adult.

Corgis aren’t known for being mean either.

Right, hence me saying a deep bark would be a plus..and why I would personally not bother to own a toy breed.

I once had a lab mix. We were told he was a lab/chow mix but I'm thinking he may have had some Newfoundland in him.

He was only 65 pounds but with his bark you'd think he was 10 feet tall. I had friends who would literally refuse to come into my house after hearing him bark. A random burglar would have never bothered.

In the survey the type of bark didn't really seem to make a difference, just noise in general was indicated as a huge problem. But I can get the argument that a deeper bark would travel further.

It's not the dog that bothers would be intruders, it's the dog alerting the residents. The deep bark doesn't matter so much. It's the noise. It gathers attention, alerts residents, neighbors etc.

I'm sure you're right. It's probably just easier to find a home without a pet muddying things up.

I'd still prefer a deeper bark to intimidate just in case someone is feeling bold or has weapons.

That actually makes perfect sense.

My daughter's 4.5 lb pom begs to differ. Little fucker makes more noise than 90% of the dogs I come across. But we love him anyway. :-)

I also bet that survey was conducted prior to almost everyone having video doorbells and cameras everywhere like so many (me included) do now. I mean, regardless of dog or no dog (we have two that can be surprisingly loud for the fact that anyone could punt them 50 yards), you'd have to be a total moran to break into a house in a neighborhood worth breaking into these days.
