Annalee. I agree with you entirely. My sister used to own a female Staffie (Now at the bridge through old age) and was sometimes berated for owning a Pit Bull, when in actual fact Judy was from a well know and regulated SBT breeder (And as daft as a brush). I am sure other SBT owners have had this. RIP Beauxx

Presumably BSL at fault again. There seems to be an awful lot of dogs being seized and put to sleep for being a pitbull "type" just lately. Some of them look wildly different to each other too. It stinks. Poor Beau. Rest in peace little one xxx

Such a sad tale about Beau. Nobody was interested in him when he was alive and since he has been euthanised he's had so much publicity. My remark isn't meant as a dig at anyone on here because it's obvious that you all did care - obviously his owner couldn't have cared less that's why he ended up like he did xx RIP

SODC. I was under the impression that you can own a Pit Bull, but you need a special licence? Professional dog trainers insist that 90% of these dogs can be quite safe in the RIGHT homes. I knew someone who used to own a Pit Bull (Before new Laws) and had absolutely no trouble at all with him. Like in a lot of cases it`s irresponsible ownership. You wont be forgotten beautiful Beau. RIP+++

thank you for the clarification. i dont think anyone was criticising you just all this indiscriminating breeding and irresponsible owners at the expense of the poor dogs. very often the novelty of having a dog wears off and results in the dog having a poor upbringing. i wonder if the owner of "beau" even gave him a thought when he was missing.

I would just like to clarify the position with Beau. At South Oxfordshire District Council we endeavour to rehome all stray dogs. Unfortunately in this case Beau was inspected by the police and declared to be a pit bull. Legally we have no option but to put the poor dog to sleep.

Beau is a lovely name, he is such a gorgous boy. i really wish staffies were given more of a chance! poor little love cant believe his owners didnt come forward xx

run free Beau ...run free xxx

2012-08-15 14:39 Deb4gsd

so, so sad, this poor boy had been caught after being abandoned, hoping to be reunited with owners or a possible adoption, only to have his life taken from him after such a short time! I know it might sound very irresponsible but there is a part of me that feels at least he was alive while running free! Run free at the bridge 'Beau' xx

2012-08-15 09:43 Unknown

So pleased everyone likes the name. RIP Beau, and go and play with the other beautiful Beau, who belogned to Digbsymum.xxx (Two beautiful; Beaus together) God Blessx

RIP Beau - play free from harm over the Bridge - sleep tight sweetheart xx

Sorry to mention this on Beau's page (I know it's special for Beau)but there's another little fellow that I have been worried about and I feel could go the same was as poor Beau. I have commented on his page but nobody's replied. He's found his kennel name is Rusty and it's quite obvious what he's been used for. He's number 40701. xxx

Thank you janiejewel, Beau is a lovely name

RIP beautiful Beau, run free in the sun at Rainbow Bridge sweetheart xx

2012-08-14 23:29 digbysmum

Oh, totally heartbreaking. Couldn't a rescue place have been found for him? He didn't deserve this. Run free at the bridge, beautiful Beau. My Beau will be waiting to play - he was beautiful too xxxx

I think Beau is a lovely name too he deserves a beautiful name xx

2012-08-14 21:57 Unknown

Tigermouse. I think you are right, he should be given a namne. I think Beau suits him. What do others think please?

2012-08-14 21:22 Tigermouse

It breaks my heart to read of things like this - shame on his owner for not caring as much as we on here do. I know it won't help him now but can he be given a name just for this page? I hate to think he went to Rainbow Bridge without anyone knowing what he was called :(

2012-08-14 21:13 HelperDidothepbgv

Can we be clear on the facts here ? This dog was PTS by South Oxfordshire DW service ? Is this right ?

2012-08-14 20:55 Shereen

Laura no he wasnt mine..the owner didnt come forward..I didnt even meet him but I just wont forget him,I liked his face..I had a feeling when he was listed that he wouldnt be claimed : (

Bless his heart poor little mite such a terribly sad world we seem to live in these days. God bless you. RIP. Julie x

2012-08-14 20:13 Laura

shereen was he your dog? x

2012-08-14 20:12 Laura

poor little love, i think he is gorgous! i hate hearing all the sad endings ;-( i wish these dog pounds could give these dogs longer i have said it before but i think 7 days is just not long enough!!! rip little one x

2012-08-14 17:48 Unknown

jobadger. I agree with all you have said. This can be a very cruel world sometimes. But at least he is away from harm now, and most probably playing in the warm sunshine with Lennox and co. Night, night cherub, sleep tight and run free. RIP+++ I think we know what you mean matthers22, but I thought he was okay to look at. Mind you the sympathy vote wins it for me everytime.God BlessXX

2012-08-14 16:34 jacks

disgusting i'ne nothing more to say just god bless you doggy with no name, you will be free at rainbow bridge where there is no discrimination xx

2012-08-14 15:58 dewilliams42

poor dog, its so heartbreaking. sounds like a case of indiscrimate breeding and irresponsible ownership. everyone loves a fluffy puppy but some people dont want them when they grow bigger. its the poor dog who suffers. rip lovely boy. xx

2012-08-14 15:27 jobadger

I'm so very sorry gorgeous - there are days when I wish I didn't belong to this planet. Have fun at the Bridge and rest easy.......xx

2012-08-14 13:39 Shereen

Its ok mathers22,we know that...shame the real owner didnt care as much as us...like you say he probably is in a better place now at Rainbow Bridge

2012-08-14 13:36 mathers22

My remark below wasn't aimed at anyone on DL just wish his previous owner who turned him out onto the street to fend for himself had been euthanased instead of the dog. Nobody can hurt or abuse him now RIP xx

2012-08-14 13:25 mathers22

How upsetting just because he wasn't a pretty boy nobody wanted him so unfair. RIP xxxx

2012-08-14 13:22 Shereen

So sorry to say so, yes...I tried hard to find him before it was too late for him...he covered too much ground...I wont forget him...gutted... but whilst people insist on breeding these dogs,they will be the victims of human race...ok if they were responsible people and done the right thing,but in this case it wasnt to be...im sorry : (

2012-08-14 13:08 Deb4gsd

So has this poor boy been PTS??

2012-08-14 12:57 Shereen

Run Free at Rainbow Bridge precious ♥

2012-08-07 13:46 Shereen

This boy still hasnt been claimed........I Did get a report from a sighter who saw this dog on the 29th July in Highmoor (RG9)He,at that time was running with a Brindle coloured dog,similar breed but maybe a bit taller.I did go looking for them but had no joy...I emailed the link to the sighter last night and she is certain he is one of the dogs she saw...so that means we still have a dog running out there on its own....he/she could be anywhere between where this dog was found and Britwel salome/ewelme,nettlebed/nuffield,highmoor or even further afield...please keep your eyes peeled if you are in this area.I have spoken to the council and the brindle dog has not been picked up yet...they will contact me when they know the status of this dog...im going to bump this page due to fresh info.
