It was the last thing police and the owner wanted. And it ended in the worst possible way.

Toronto Police were forced to pull their guns and kill a dog Monday afternoon, after it attacked a 16-year-old boy. The animal, a 12-year-old [b]Terrier-German Shepherd mix[/b] named Shade, lunged at the teen when he entered his neighbour’s home near Shuter and Sackville Sts. in the downtown core.

The owner frantically tried to subdue the animal, but couldn’t grab it in time. When David Crow tried to leave the house, the dog caught up to him, getting a firm grip on his leg with its powerful jaws.

Pay duty cops working on a film set down the street rushed to the scene, and managed to pry the animal off the youth, now writhing in pain.

But when it appeared the animal was about to lunge at its target again, cops took the only step they could think of, and opened fire, killing the animal.

“It held him and he was screaming and then the cops ran over from the movie set and shot the dog four times through the window,” shudders witness Joseph Bucca.

Crow was transported to St. Michael’s Hospital for treatment for wounds to his leg. But this incident isn’t what it seems.

Crow walked into the home unannounced, despite knowing the animal was a trained attack dog and was generally kept in the basement.

“They know not to walk in my house and he did,” complains Sue Lynne Bennett,” Shade’s owner. “David stood there like an idiot saying "what" before coming in, but he just walked in and all hell broke loose.”

The dog had a reputation for being vicious, but up until Monday, had never attacked a human.

Crow’s distraught dad thinks the animal reacted on instinct. “He's always showed up no problems,” Bill Crow responds. “This time, the dog must have got a whiff of my dog and went after him.

It’s the first time[b] a pit bull-type[/b] canine has attacked anyone since Attorney General Michael Bryant passed his controversial legislation banning the breed earlier this year.

Critics contend it proves how flawed the law is – under the rules, the dog would not have had to be muzzled, because the animal was in its own home.

“We warned somebody earlier today not to put their hands in our gate because he went to go pet him and we're like ‘don't do that,’” observes Bennett. “You don't know the dog. The dog will attack. And it's just unfortunate that letting a dog in and somebody walking in at the same time, the dog just lunged at our friend.”

The 16-year-old, now bearing a huge gash in his leg sewn up with stitches, admits the incident was his fault, and he should have known better.

It’s small comfort for the owner, who watched the family’s protector lose its life in front of her eyes.

I do believe that in the beginning they called the dog a Terrier/GSH Mix, which I am taking to mean a Staffordshire Terrier ???
And you know the press they call anything resembling a Bully breed, a Pit Bull......... :roll:
