GRAPHIC IMAGES: RESIDENTS CALL FOR PIT BULLS TO BE EUTHANISED


THE Pinetown community is calling for two pit bulls that savagely attacked and killed two Jack Russells last week to be euthanised.
Jethro McNamee said his three Jack Russells, Jack, Jill and their baby, AB, lived at his girlfriend’s home in Balfour Road in Pinetown for the last year. He dropped them off every morning before going to work. His girlfriend, Natasha Clerk, also has a Jack Russell named Duke.
However, on Friday, 31 March their world was shattered when two ferocious pit bulls forced their way into the fenced-off property and front gate at his girlfriend’s home and attacked two of the four Jack Russells.
The attack set off the security alarm and Blue Security arrived at the house and informed the owners about a dog attack in progress.
The reaction officers fired three shots into the air to get the pit bulls off the premises. The police and community watch members were also alerted.

When McNamee arrived at the property, he found his male dog, Jack, unable to move due to the massive wounds on his neck.
The female dog, Jill, was found dead a short distance away from Jack.

Jill’s stomach was ripped open and her intestines were hanging out. There was also a huge chunk of her neck that had been bitten off.
The other two dogs, Duke and AB were missing at the time.
