Pit Bully: A person who constantly attacks and singles out the breed rather than the owners and the circumstances in which the animal lives under through no fault of its own.

BETHANY, Okla. —A mother and child attacked by a man posing as a UPS driver on Friday were saved by the family's pit bull.

It happened in a neighborhood near Lake Overholser.

The man was holding a package when the woman opened her front door and sprayed her and her infant son with pepper spray.

The family dog, Louie, sprang into action when the woman cried out, and chased the man from the house.

"She was hysterical. She could barely speak," said neighbor Heather Baird, who heard the woman screaming.

Baird called the woman's husband, Ryan Bounds, who was at work.

"I tried to get here as fast as I could," said Bounds.

He said he's lucky the dog was there to protect his family, but since the attacker is still on the loose, he is warning other families to be careful.

"Make sure you know who it is before you answer the door," said Bounds.

The mother and son went to a hospital to have the pepper spray washed off their faces and are doing okay now, said Bounds.

Too bad doggie didn't get ahold of the guy, that would surely be taking a "Bite" out of crime...

Any dog can be made 'bad.'

Pit bulls are good dogs, people make them bad.

Pit bulls are usually for guard dogs.

Why do you say that?

They are popular with getto rat drug dealers and wanna'-be gang-bangers with an Oedipus complex.

Tell that to Caser Milan

Or to Michael Vick?

First off this sounds like the same argument folks use for having a gun in the house.

That said, pittys can be fine friendly loyal companion dogs.

But like a lot of breeds they have been overbread and a lot of them find their way into the hands of very irresponsible dog owners.

Most dogs will defend their owners or owners property in one way or the other. My little lab was as friendly and calm as you would want a dog to be, but, it wasn't a good idea to stick your hand in my truck window if he was in it and I wasn't.

People can make any dog to be bad.

That was my point.

Hood rats like them to protect their drugs.

My point too. All it takes is a little cruelty, and people have gobs and gobs of cruelty.

I have a male Red Healer.

He looks mean. His last owner kept him chained up all his life. He adopted me.

I had to put the fence up to 6 feet. Any lower and he climbs over.

There is only one person he will not allow to enter my yard. I give him goodies for keeping him out.

If I'm outside, he won't even look up if someone comes over.

He loves riding in the back of the truck. I go to the store, tell him to stay and he's right there when I get back. When we take dump trips he jumps out and runs behind me

and for fighting.
