Yesterday, in Oberglatt, a small town near Zurich, a 6 years old boy was attacked and killed by 3 pitbulls, while on the way to kindergarten. The child was alone on the way, which goes throw the woods and fields and all happened before the eyes of other people. Here is normal a child in kindergarten age to walk alone to school.
I have an idea where it happened, I lived in Oberglatt for two years, a decade ago.
It is said that the three dogs scaped from the apartment where the owner (who owns 6 pitbulls), was living as a gast. The other three dogs did not scaped. The three dogs were PTS while the owner and his girlfriend were arrested.
While all over the world theres is a controversy about pitbulls here in Switzerland they are trendy and cool. Here, is modish to have a pit.
the newspaper www.nzz.ch has an on-line edition in English.
Sad. Sad. Sad. I am sad for the child, of course. But I am sad also for the dogs.
I will follow what comes in the press and post in this thread.
Wish you all a nice weekend.
