Family pet injures Laurel County toddler

Posted: 11:58 PM Mar 21, 2010

A daily trip to visit a family pet, turns dangerous when the dog bites and injures a toddler.
The young girl's grandmother had to fight the animal off during the incident on Terrell's Creek Road, in Laurel County.
Madison McQueen is listed in fair condition at UK Hospital as of Sunday night.
The child is making progress after her grandparents and a neighbor rescued her from the family's 2-year-old Great Dane.
Family members say taking one-and-a-half-year-old Madison McQueen to pet their three dogs was something they did each day.
Next-door-neighbor James McFadden says the family's Great Dane, Wolfie is a "good dog."
Family members say they're not sure what made Wolfie bite Madison, but when her grandmother Abby Gillam tried to stop the dog, Wolfie attacked Abby.
"I heard her hollering over at the barn. She's hollering, help, help," said McFadden.
McFadden says the child's grandfather was the first to reach them.
"He ran over there and got the dog off of him and when I got over there, her and the baby was at the end of the barn, and I got the baby and brought it back to the house," said McFadden.
McFadden called 911 and waited with Madison.
Doctors treated Abby at a nearby hospital and released her that day.
As for Madison, paramedics took her to UK Hospital with injuries to her face, legs, and groin.
Madison's mother Jennifer McQueen says she expects her daughter to be released Monday and to make a full recovery.

I will be posting any stories regarding attacks by other breeds as well as my own personal comments. I sincerely wish there were no bites to report but unfortunately there is,

Craven Desires and its hate filled propaganda machine.

Recently a friend made me aware of a site called Craven Desires. A site that is anti "pit bull" and loves to capitalize on any negative articles regarding "pit bulls". I went there and read some of there handy work and was not in the least bit impressed. I found it upsetting to read in some of their blog posts how they wish harm on people so that others can see how terrible and vicious this particular breed is. I felt compelled to comment and then noticed that all comments had to be reviewed by the author of this blo. I din't anticipate that they would even post my comments,but they did. In my comments I always try to remain professional and not attack anyone personally. Well I wish I could say the same for the commenters there but unfortunately that was not the case.

I also invited them to join me during an episode of The Pit Bull Positive show on Saturday and engage in a little debate. I was fairly certain that they would not take me up on this as then they would be exposed for their cowardly actions. One commenter November17 was quite adamant about me forgetting to leave any information for the show so he could tune in so I left all information along with detailed instructions in case he had problems navigating the internet. After he informed me I had neglected to leave the info for the show. I also left my real name as I don't feel the need to hide behind the anonymity of a fake screen name.

As I suspected no one called to discuss there views regarding "pit bulls", this came as no surprise despite the fact that November17 seemed so adamant about calling in. I guess fear got the best of him who knows, I do know by reading his other blogs he has posted that something in the woods behind his house does frighten him at night. So perhaps the mere thought of calling me and engaging in a nice lively debate made his pants moist.

After the show I went back to this heinous blog and asked them nicely why they hadn't called in and that I was really looking forward to hearing there views, well I guess being called out on there own blog would make them look gutless so my comments were never posted. They did however post November17's comments.

PS "Pit Bull Positive" it must suck to be a felon. Nice prison tattoos. Now I realize why you have so much time to run a lame-ass internet show...your ass doesn't have a job. Have fun "broadcasting from Marty's living room" and bowling next friday. dork

Well November17 I have never been in prison, and as far as I know there are no prisons in the US where you can get color tattoos and as far as the meth comment that is laughable. He did get me with the no job thing as I am a union carpenter and have been out of work for some time. But unlike him i try to use my time to do something productive and something that is important to me. The American Pit Bull Terrier, the breed I have had the pleasure of having in my life for nearly 25 years off and on. I fell compelled to stand up for my breed and this somehow makes me a bad person?

What exactly does this blog site hope to accomplish? What are there long term goals? do they think ridding the world of this wonderful, misunderstood breed will make it a better place and that in itself will stop all dog bites? It hardly seems productive to me what they are trying to do, wouldn't it be more productive if we all worked together to come up with answers and solutions to the problem?

Im sure I will become a bigger target to them with all of this but bottom line is I don't hide who I am or what my motives are. If you bvelieve in something and your actions are sincer and true there is no need to hide who you are, right? I also found it interesting when someone passed on the definition of Craven-contemptibly lacking in courage. How appropriate!
