TV anchorwoman undergoes surgery after a Great Mastiff dog chomps her face on live TV

This was local? It should be interesting how the local news. I think I can assume that it won't be, "Airheaded anchor threatens dog by behaving carelessly; dog defends itself."

Dog body language be different than ape body language!

I thought it was Kenny, not Kyle, who always encountered such things.

9NEWS is treating this as something serious...

"The dog bite accident that happened today at 9NEWS was unfortunate and certainly not expected based on what we knew about the dog and his owner. Our goal was to unite the owner with the rescuer for a nice segment. We are all thinking of Kyle and her recovery," Vice President of News at 9NEWS Patti Dennis said on Wednesday. "We love Kyle and what she and her family do for this community. We also love animals and will continue to do all we can to use 9NEWS to improve animal welfare in Colorado."

9NEWS.

She was still an idiot.

The dog had just been through a traumatic experience and then in a TV news studio with bright lights and strangers all around, sitting in front of his human owner.

Not the best time to stick your face inches away from a dog.

Was? She always has been that is not up for question. I think its funny how they are covering this. She got nipped on her lip. But you would think she lost half her face. When I heard about this I was hoping it was Amelia Earhart and maybe the dog had tore her shirt off. But of course it was the dyke.

yah. well, they don't get the job because of their intelligence.

Still safer than McDonald's Chicken McBites.

She should be euthanized.

Her parents should be hanged for naming a girl Kyle.

You can't make this up. I kid you not. From the local news.

Pit bull kissing booth set for Valentine's Day

I do not think pit bulls are inherently violent. I really don't think it's a good idea to put your face in the face of any animal who does not trust or know you.

Any dog breed that weighs over 40 pounds should require a license. Shit, more often than not the problems just boil down to bad owner behavior, like keeping a German Shepard in a 1/1 apartment and only taking it out for 5 minute leashed walks a couple times a day for it to go to the bathroom. When that dog bites somebody, it won't be because it's violent, it will be because it's bored as shit and has an endless supply of pent up energy.

Is the news anchor a lesbian?

Oh wait, that was a Presa Canario.

OUCH.

I have a similar story. When I was like 9, my moms boyfriend at the time had a shitty little wiener dog. This thing was retarded I think. Anyway, I didn't like it much and his daughter was holding the dog one day and I was blowing in its face and making it growl at me. OBVIOUSLY that's a stupid idea. I know. No need to bring that up. But the dog was a dumb fuck as most little dogs are. I didn't like it so blowing in it's face while she held it and pissing it off made me feel good for some reason. Remember, I was like 9 years old. Anyway, the dog lashes out and took a dime sized chunk out of my upper lip. I stand up crying immediately holding both my hands as a cup to my chest as the blood pours in from my face. Mom wasn't up yet but her boyfriend takes me to the bathroom to dump the blood and put pressure on it.

We get the bleeding under control and go to the ER. At that point, it didn't really hurt anymore and I was more self conscious about having a hunk of meat out of my lip around other people in the waiting room than the pain and thought they were looking at me. Anyway, we get in and they cover my face with a tarp thing with a hole in it for my lip and shoot all kinds of numbing crap directly into the wound which hurt a bit but I handled it. Then they sewed it up and i'm as good as I can be. No noticeable scar on the outside but if I flip my lip out, you can see the scar there. Stupid dogs. I love dogs but damn if I'm not careful with them now.

libs keep banning me: Still safer than McDonald's Chicken McBites.

Had some of those today. Not too bad.

muir:

You know, for a pit bull, that looks pretty normal. They just look funky sometimes.

Ahh... thats right. But from that pic it looked like a Pitt Bull. At least the ones I've seen.

This is also how prisoners work.

myinternetname: Is the news anchor a lesbian?

I think so. Around the holidays they always have commercials with the various anchors and their families. In hers they never show a husband/BF. Its always just her and two daughters. Plus just look at her.

twitch osx: OUCH.

This needs to be posted on that poor anchorwoman's wall. This lady is a dog taming genius in comparison now.

LOL!

Put a dog into a stressful situation where he can't retreat then put your face into his and bad things will happen.

That's not a great mastiff. That's a dogo argentino. It's originally bred to hunt wild boar. She's lucky she still has a face.
