"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. [Reply]

I live with a pittie in a 540 sq foot house at a dead end in the woods. I designed the crackerbox and I like it. How much fucking space do you need? [Reply]

Midwest USA has a sale on walking cane swords. Run that bitch through!
i am done with the new route. completely fucking done.
halfway down the first street and some kid is in the yard playing and my alarm bells instantly went off. got 30 yards from the house and one of the fucking dogs from ghostbusters is sitting on the front stoop, looking like he wasn't chained up at all.
didn't stick around to find out. did an immediate fucking 360 and got the fuck outta there before he saw us.
i live in a society of fucking neanderthals who think they can just put dinosaurs outside their caves [Reply]

So you’re mad that someone else owns a dog and it was on their porch? [Reply]

irresponsible owner
You said “looking like it wasn’t chained up at all.” You don’t know and the dog didn’t do anything wrong. It could be you have a heightened fear and awareness of other dogs due to past experiences which causes you to see things negatively. [Reply]

Yeah that was my bad I don't know where I got that. Bear spray is legal in all 50 states. It is illegal to carry on or check through baggage on airlines for obvious reasons. [Reply]
