The only thing I could really suggest is that you start sending letters out to government officials in that area and start a petition saying the dog should get a second chance with you.
That whole story makes me absolutely furious. What kind of a parent leaves a child...much less a less than 2 year old!...alone with a dog!? And then she has the audacity to say that pits don't make good family pets? Uh...sorry dear, people like you don't make good mothers.

This is very sad for the dog! Why on Earth would anyone leave a dog alone w/ a child! She was 22 months old so she was small, the dog could have accidental stepped on her and hurt her! It's unfortunate b/c this was a case of an irresponsible owner! Dogs can become very possessive over bones, you MUST really watch a dog when he gets a new one to make sure he doesn't get possessive over it!
I really don't have any advice, as far as what to do except for contact a pit bull rescue you the area and see if they can help!
~And this has nothing to do w/ the dog being a pit bull...it has to do w/ the fact that the parents were irresponsible w/ their child and they are lucky she isn't dead!
Good Luck! Merry Christmas!

Maybe you should try to figure out where the dog will be euthanized, then write a page on why you think the dog deserves to live and why yo think your farm would be a great place to keep the dog, tell them that it would be an outside dog where it could run and couldn't ever hurt anyone. If that doesn't work and you are really into saving him you could start a group in your area and protest(you would still have to find the location.) I hope you can save him.

These owners are morons! Notice how the mother has decided that the bred is to blame for her carelessness? Infuriating! Breed has nothing to do with this tragedy. Leaving a small child alone with a half grown puppy is asking for trouble. Try to save the dog. If they will not release it to you, see if it can be released to a pit bull rescue group. Odds are it is not aggressive at all, but poorly trained, young and full of playful energy.

First let me say that I wouldn't feel comfortable living near you if you did get this dog, and let it run free on the 'ranch'. I do not believe that this dog bit BECAUSE it was a pit of course. It could have been any big dog,,,and little children should never be left unsupervised with any large animal of any breed. It just happened to be a pit this time. Regardless of the breed,,,,a dog that has done this to a child should not be in a position "free to roam" to do it again. My advice is to let it go.
I also value human children over animals, and I'm going to tick alot of people off with this one, but if this ever happened to my child,,the dog would have never made it somewhere to be euthanized, just on the off chance that they WOULD release it to someone else that thought it was ok for it to run free. Even if you live at the end of a 4 mile road on 3000 acres all to yourself,,,you have family,,,and people will at some point visit. The dog may need medical attention at some point in its life, shots etc,,,and I would hate to see the 2 year old at the vets office holding her kitty cat , have her face bitten off because I let the dog go,,,and you saved it and put it back into a position to do this again.

Sorry, but even being an avid pit bull fan, I have to say there is nothing you can do outside of begging for the dog's life and being able to provide it with the rehabilitation needed to properly control a dog. Leaving a child alone with ANY dog is stupid, and the mother should've been in trouble as well.

I'm not going to sit here and read another "pit bull goes bezerk after being abused" story.
If you want the dog, and they will release it to you, then go for it. But, where will the dog be during the winter?
In the US, it's rare for dogs who have been deemed "dangerous" to be released to the general public for adoption. No matter what the circumstances.
If you ca't save this one, at least be happy that he no longer has to suffer. Take this emotion that you are having and put it towards fighting against animal abusers, backyard breeders, puppy millers, and dogfighters.
One person trying CAN make a difference.

A bluebell huggers rant [to amend a word coined in right here] the character reserves in Warwickshire are plowed up much extra by utilising horse riders, babies on bicycles & the so called conservationists have been very obtainable with saws hacking down universal trees, clearing swaths by way of what as quickly as have been amazing aspects [no longer so super for the wild rabbits] & digging up specific bluebell patches to permit room for different plant life to flourish. regarded horrendous while they had complete. All yet some irresponsible canines walkers savour & appreciate their good to roam, so with all due appreciate to Germaine Greer, i think of i'm going to passing on killing my canines.

The thing that annoys me is that you shouldn't leave ANY dog with a small child. And since it had a bone that was a really dangerous situation. Frankly I still blame the mother on the most part. I know that my five year old brother could never stay alone with my dog, or else he'd probably annoy him so much that Judge would bite. 22 month old with a dog? Bad idea. What will stop her from pulling his tail, stepping on him, maybe even falling on him or stealing his bone. You have to use common sense.
