(haipo) – A baby girl who was bitten by the family's pit bull dog in Kiryat Bialik was evacuated to Rambam, while resuscitation efforts were underway. The doctors at Rambam fought for her life and were forced to declare her dead. T.N.C.B.H.
Pitbull – an extremely dangerous dog
Pitbulls are defined in Israel as "dangerous dogs." The reason for this is the immense power of their jaws. They are usually friendly and easy-going dogs with family members, but if the dog decides to bite, for whatever reason, the results can be tragic, as in the case before us.
The bite force of a pit bull is estimated at about 500 kilograms. That is, the weight of about 7 people on a very small area, about 20 square centimeters. This bite crushes any organ caught between these massive jaws.
Toddlers do not know how to distinguish signs of threat from dogs, such as baring teeth, threatening barking, etc. Toddlers may approach the dog's food bowl while it is eating and activate a "trigger" of biting/attacking, which is common in dogs at mealtime, including family dogs.
MDA informed Hai Pa News Corporation:
At 13:55 PM, a report was received at the MDA 101 hotline in the Carmel area, about a baby girl who had been bitten by a dog in Kiryat Bialik. MDA medics and paramedics are providing medical treatment and referring a 10-month-old baby girl to Rambam Hospital in critical condition, undergoing CPR, with bite marks on her upper body.
MDA paramedics Amwaj Bachar and Michael Kazan said:
"We arrived at the scene and saw the baby next to the family members, unconscious, without a pulse or breathing, with a serious injury to her upper body. We were told that she had been bitten by a dog. We immediately began performing CPR, which included chest compressions, and evacuated her in an MDA intensive care unit to the hospital while CPR was being performed, with her condition critical."
Merambam was delivered to Hai Pa:
Unfortunately, a few minutes ago, a toddler who was rushed to the Rambam emergency room while undergoing CPR after being bitten by a dog was pronounced dead.
The police told Lai Pa:
The police opened an investigation after receiving a report from Rambam Medical Center about a tragic case of an attack on a 10-month-old toddler by the family dog, apparently a pit bull, in their apartment in Kiryat Bialik.
Zevulun police station officers investigating the circumstances of the incident called municipal officials and the veterinarian to seize the dog.
This is alongside forensic investigators who are collecting evidence and taking testimony from the mother as part of the investigation that has been opened.
"Before" organization: 2,533 children injured by dogs in 4 years
According to data from the Betrem Child Safety Organization, in the last five years (2020-2024), 2533 children were evacuated for medical treatment in hospital emergency rooms due to dog bites, 18% of them aged from birth to 4. The data also shows that in these years, a one-year-old girl lost her life as a result of a dog bite.
Orly Silvinger, CEO of the Betrem Child Safety Organization:
"A dog is man's best friend and the most common pet in Israel. Adopting a dog is an exciting experience, and is often done with the best interests of the children in mind. However, most children who are injured by a dog attack were injured by a familiar dog, often the family dog and within the confines of the home. Children aged birth to 4 may be at high risk, due to their small bodies and inability to recognize warning signs.
To prevent injury, it is important to be careful not to approach a dog while it is eating, sleeping, or caring for its puppies, to keep a distance from strange or dangerous dogs, and to teach children to recognize signs of distress such as barking, baring teeth, or a folded tail.
There is no such thing as a dangerous dog.
There is a dangerous owner.
People don't know that not every dog is right for every person, even if the dog is trendy.
Pitbulls need clear rules and firm discipline, meaning the owner needs to be strong.
"Dangerous dog" I'll kill a poor dog
And to conclude: Dr. Rafi Kishon classified the biter as an Amstaff and I trust his classification. He is a veterinarian and certainly knows how to identify. Secondly, in the interview this morning on television, he noted that the dog's ears were cut. The dog has therefore suffered. Powerful dogs should not be brought near a child who is trying to harass the dog. The parents are largely to blame. They are supposed to know the dog's character well. Such a dog should not be outlawed, but rather its adoption should be limited to understanding individuals. As I already mentioned in my silent response, not every dog has the same character. Character depends on the dog's background, how it was raised, and sometimes also the character and lack of knowledge of its owner.
She is 10 months old.
For all those concerned; we had a pitbull dog named Sherry (this is probably an Amstaff) who never showed anger towards people or babies. She never had a harness on her because she was raised by us to be obedient and received a lot of love. Sherry saved a girl from sexual neglect when boys almost raped her and saved a boy in the water when he almost drowned. Sherry licked people and children and communicated with everyone with licking and smiling (tongue out). We let her be petted and trained her to eat near people but not in a way that would disturb her. She was accessible to many people. Many times a hand was put in her mouth and she would quickly move her mouth away and release the hand from it. We always talked to her and showered her with love. Sherry also allowed kittens to climb on her and warm herself on her body in the winter. May her memory be blessed. For the information of dog haters, the authorities have defined them as dangerous.
A dead baby, you stupid man.
And I generally think that people are dangerous, not dogs. It's a question of education.
Instead of learning from the classrooms to raise ten or fifteen children who donate their time to the success of the IDF, they raise disgusting dogs and do not judge the parents. I am sure they are broken and did not think about this fact. The dog looks cute. There is a dog playing with batteries. Yahya remembered it. Baruch. The heart aches. May God, the blessed one, comfort you among the rest of the mourners of Zion and may you know no more sorrow.
This is not the first time a pit bull has attacked a toddler.
The writing was on the wall.
Hahaha, real clowning
If it was any other dog they wouldn't bother posting this.
There is an interest in turning the pit bull into a dangerous dog, even though it is exactly the opposite. It is the owner who is dangerous.
All the answers you gave about what to do mean nothing to a baby one year old or younger. Simply don't raise such dogs at all.
Listen, Mr. Amichai, you are embarrassing yourself and the human race, enough ignorance.
A pit bull is not a family dog, and the fucked-up parents are to blame for the death of their family and should be brought to justice.
The dog association feels more sorry for dogs than for humans.
Such a dog should not be raised at home.
Now the suffering with the parents will be pain with a warm kiss for their beloved dog who will be taken from them in favor of the police.
The case proves that the parents kept the dog without any understanding.
Pitbull is a perfect house dog, Mr. Michaud.
Your knowledge of dogs probably isn't that great if these are the words coming out of your keyboard.
A pit bull is my family dog, and the fucking hounds are to blame for the death of their family.
The dog association feels more sorry for dogs than for humans.
Such a dog should not be raised at home.
Now the suffering with the parents will be pain with a warm kiss for their beloved dog
It's interesting that all the tragedies were read in Haifa.
Nonsense in juice!!!
The people have determined that a pitbull is a fighting dog, which is true!!@ The person is so bad that he takes his pitbull to fights!!!! I have a pitbull and the pitbull has been trained, which is mandatory!!!!!
And she never attacked me. I feel sorry for the toddler and I feel sorry for the pit bull because his ego attacked him.
When will you understand?
A dog is an animal.
His only job is to guard facilities and police dogs.
It is not allowed to be near human habitation.
A primitive and uneducated response.
Thank you for expanding and including articles about dog attacks from the last decade.
A passage in none of the articles
No
mentioned
Dog
Pitbull
(Including the article which has another illustration of a pit bull)
Most people don't go into the details of the articles, they take the picture they are given,
And they immediately run to respond.
That all pit bulls should be killed.
In the last two days, a lot of 'articles' have been published about the case, all of which include illustrated pictures of pit bulls, even though none of them are clear where the information about the dog breed came from.
Ms. Carmi, since you are the director of the news corporation, the question is directed to you:
Who said it was a pit bull?? The paramedics/police/doctors/family.. who?
Could it be that just one person wrote it and the others copied it? (As in many cases in the past, when it turned out to be a different breed and they wrote Pit Bull because it generated more responses).
No one thinks about the enormous damage that is now being done to a lot of good dogs, because because of these articles, they will end up in villages where they will be abused and used for fighting.
What is the punishment for reporters who invent?
(I hope you publish despite the criticism)
This is a police update that it is a pit bull.
It's a pit bull. I know the family.
It would have been better if your response had not been published and your stupidity had not been exposed.
Some people should not be parents or raise animals. Ignorance and lack of knowledge brought a helpless baby into this situation. May this be the last incident of animals and babies 🙁
The dog's owner should go to jail for murder!
Irresponsibility. Luckily the dog killed their child and not the neighbor's child.
Irresponsibility on the part of the parents, who let such a dangerous dog roam the house while there are small children. The dog can suddenly attack anyone who is near it. And in general, why keep such dangerous dogs in homes.
There are small, very cute dogs that do not pose a danger to household members.
I have a pitbull dog that I want to give away. She is spayed, treated, a good dog. We are unable to care for her. She is one and a half years old.
Parents to prison. Dog to be destroyed.
And you are in court as a senior judge, this is how you should judge and decide... 100% right.
Even a person who bites a baby can kill it very quickly. This article is full of nonsense, make the writer vomit.
Go get treatment. You really don't understand the difference between a pit bull bite and a human bite (completely distorted comparison)
Yes, but this isn't the first time this type of dog has done this. It's gained quite a reputation...
Stupid response! How can you compare!
The parents pay the price for their negligence. I love animals. A trained pit bull can do it. They always have the urge to attack and kill, especially any pit bull and several other types of dogs. Dogs outside the house should not be inside the house, especially if there is a baby. Period.
What a bad movie
A Golden Labrador and any other dog can kill a baby in 2 seconds... even a human jaw.
It's a matter of irresponsibility and lack of knowledge in breeding.
It's unpleasant and the girl is not to blame, but unfortunately irresponsible adults only wake up in retrospect, when the weapon they like to flaunt has fatally injured someone. And now they are hitting back at the most painful sin - when the weapon was used against them.
Another superficial article that directly blames the pit bull, even though even according to the article itself, there is no certainty at all that it was a pit bull.
It's simply convenient to write 'pit bull' to press the emotion, create a sensation and feed the stigma. There is a clear interest in continuing to label this breed as 'dangerous' to justify regulations, bans and unnecessary fear.
But the truth is, that's simply a lie. The Pit Bull is a strong dog, yes – but also one of the most loyal, intelligent, and gentle breeds there is, when raised in good hands.
A dog is a result of its environment and upbringing, not its breed.
If the article can't even verify the breed, maybe it should start there before inciting an entire public against amazing animals.
The dog, a violent animal, devoured the baby.
Right in 100%
In the last two days, there have been a lot of 'articles' about the case. In none of them is it clear where the information about the dog breed came from.
One person just wrote and the others copied.
I hope that if it's not a pit bull (as has been the case in many cases in the past) these reporters will pay for their work and be forced to pay compensation to the organization that works for these dogs.
No one thinks about the enormous damage that is now being done to a lot of good dogs, who because of these articles will end up in villages where they will be abused and used as sacrifices.
It is urgent to ban pit bulls and all other types of dangerous dogs in the country. We must not take risks with these degenerate and dangerous animals. We must not argue whether the child is the one who turned on the dog or vice versa. I prefer children to dogs. I do not understand why in the country we ask this question.
In my opinion, an operation should be launched to collect all the dogs that are considered dangerous in Israel and put them in a large compound where they will spend the rest of their lives. It is time for there to be supervision and enforcement of which breeds are allowed, as well as enforcement of training.
A dog that bites its owner is liable for automatic compensation of 100000 p. before trial, a fine of 250000 to the state, shooting a dog, and 15 years in prison.
A rather stupid little man
You should be expelled from the country, you stinking scoundrel, and your family, God forbid, will multiply.
A stupid, idiotic, and inflammatory response.
You certainly don't and you never have been.
Owner of a dog.
The dog is a faithful animal.
Truth, an adult, a husband,
Must be around.
Grief over the loss of the baby.
May you know no more sorrow.
right.
The dog is his own and his food's best friend.
It's time to shatter this myth. It's a predator for all intents and purposes.
Alec, don't disturb him. And if you do, then what? Is there no more loyalty? There is a beast.
There is no doubt that the name you chose suits you.
I love animals. I've raised them for years...but raising a pitbull that is an attack dog in a family with children is a crime!!!!
The dog is not tame..it's his nature..it's a breed that is prone to attack and is not suitable for being in a house with children. Even if he seems pleasant, he may turn around.
It hurts my heart that a baby paid the price for her parents' stupidity.
Want to raise a dog...raise an appropriate type that protects children and has a maternal or paternal instinct. Not an attack dog.
What an outrageous and unnecessary death, and the dog will have to pay for it with its life, and the memory of its friend will be wiped out.
From the dawn of my childhood, I did not like or tolerate dogs and cats because I knew the proverb: Whoever brings animals into his home should not be surprised if his home contains ticks, bedbugs, fleas, rickets, and other germs of shame.
Very true.
Pitbull, Rottweiler, Doberman, Amstaff
Prohibited from possession in Israel
Some of the dogs you mentioned here are allowed to be kept at home, but with special permission and there are clear instructions regarding dogs.
Like they're not allowed to leave here without a checkpoint, etc.
Pitbulls are indeed dangerous dogs, but it is possible that his owner abused him before and the dog took out his frustrations on the child because the dog is smart and knows which way the wind is blowing, and he sees that the child is getting all the attention. The dog is not aggressive towards children, but if his owner abused him, then he punished his owner.
How many children need to be hurt before pit bulls are banned from being imported and used in Israel?
heartache.
This is an uncontrollable dog.
There have been so many cases of pit bull dogs attacking their owners, especially their owners. The dog is very dangerous and its possession must be outlawed immediately!
Another superficial article that directly blames the pit bull, even though even according to the article itself, there is no certainty at all that it was a pit bull.
It's simply convenient to write 'pit bull' to press the emotion, create a sensation and feed the stigma. There is a clear interest in continuing to label this breed as 'dangerous' to justify regulations, bans and unnecessary fear.
But the truth is that this is simply a lie. The Pit Bull is a strong dog, yes, but also one of the most loyal, intelligent, and gentle breeds there is, when raised in good hands.
A dog is a result of its environment and upbringing, not its breed.
If the reporter can't even verify the breed, maybe she should start there before inciting an entire public against amazing animals.
This discussion is repeated every time there is a tragic case, but it's time to stop generalizing and panicking. A dog is not 'born dangerous'; it is educated and shaped by its owner's environment, attitude, and responsibilities.
Pitbulls are a strong and intelligent breed, and often dogs of this breed are the most gentle with children when raised correctly.
The blame is not on the breed, the blame is on the people who act irresponsibly, hold a dog like a weapon or abuse it and then are surprised by the result.
Anyone who calls for the deportation or banning of entire races is speaking out of fear and ignorance, not facts. A luxury car could just as easily be blamed for every car accident.
If you really care, you will demand owner training and personal responsibility. No shaming of amazing dogs who didn't ask to be born with a stigma.
The dog is not the dangerous animal, but its owner!
With proper education, Pit Bulls are gentle, intelligent, and playful dogs that know how to adapt to the dogs and people they play with.
They become dangerous in the hands of owners who punish them with great violence and sometimes even abuse them. These intelligent dogs copy the violence they receive from their owners to other people and attack as a means of self-defense or as a way to gain the owner's affection and encouragement.
In short – the dangerous beast here goes for 2, not 4.
Unambiguous
Right
It's time to ban the breeding of this dog in Israel. Period. Only a weak country with a history of dogfighting and tyranny continues to allow dangerous attack dogs in residential areas in Israel.
You have no idea what you're signing up for.
Funny!
It's unbelievable to raise a pit bull, such a cruel dog, a family home. There's no shortage of cute dogs in the world. Who needs such an ugly and dangerous dog? Only mentally ill parents.
Most of the criminals who live in the West Haifa area, namely K. Shprinzak, Shaar Aliya neighborhood, run around with fearsome wolves and pit bulls.
This happened in Kiryat Bialik. Some racist nonsense.
I see too many pits pit mixes in Hadar.
If I remember correctly, it is forbidden to breed pit bull type dogs in Israel. How is it possible that this is still not understood by veterinarians? After all, this dog must have been familiar to one of them.
How much Mirmor in one woman
repulsive!
May there be a complete recovery. Dangerous types of dogs should be banned in Israel.
It's time to pass a law against dangerous breed dogs. A dog that attacks its family members shows you how stupid it is to "trust him" it's his nature. "My dog doesn't bite" "Rani trusts my dog" "A bad dog is because he was raised badly" Alas. Just like you would expect a tiger not to prey, stop being stupid.
Are you criminals? Why do you need to keep such a disgusting and ugly dog in your house? It's unbelievable. Learn a lesson!!!!!
Despite the hospital's "shock room"
Wishing the baby a full recovery.
She ovulates at 2.20.
And you are like a calf at 3.1:XNUMX, wishing her a full recovery…
moron
