even on missionlocal people are thinking it had to be a pit bull??? geez…
I heard that the victim hired a dog bite attorney and they will be holding a press conference tomorrow., NOT! Just kidding 😉
Please follow up with descriptions of the owner and dog if/when available.
No, if this is the dog’s second biting offense they will put him/her down! This is probably why the owner ran away. Isn’t SF a sanctuary city? They won’t deport this pup, they are going to kill it!
Either that or the dog will kill a little kid. Was it a pit bull by any chance?
You are a bad parent if you walk your kid on Valencia St. at 10:49 at night!
That’s right, blame the potential victim!
