I now firmly believe these dogs have a deep underlying urge to conquer and kill. although this may be suppressed by love and affection it still lies dormant and always will.
FYI my dog suffered for over an hour, this dog crushed both sides of her chest breaking ribs on both sides, how she lasted so long before passing at the vets is beyond me.
I was raised with cats and dogs and for the most part have always lived with the company of one or more, but a line has been crossed and now I or my wife will end it with a clean shot and there will be no suffering involved should this dog be caught on our property again. I know this will not bring back our dog but it may save another dog from the same fate.
I passed this story onto the local news station WMUR but got no reply back. I had hopes that bringing these people to light just may shame them into a change.

This is very sad. I agree with you about an inbred danger in these dogs. While out walking with our puggle we were approached by a very nice family with a pit bull similar breed. Their dog was trying to engage our dog in play, such as nudging him and running around him. Our dog, who normally will play with ALL dogs, was hiding behind me with his tail between his legs.
It was if he knew....
