When the other two dogs (Pomeranian and Great Pyrenees) started to approach, Jaquish called to the owners to call them back. They either didn't call them back or the dogs didn't listen. Either way, he then leased all three of the pitbulls. The Pomeranian circled them twice before jumping and biting one of the pitbulls in the nose. The brawl then ensued. The girl (teenager) was injured when she tried to pull the Pom out of the brawl.
Those asking about limits, I believe there is a limit of (ownership) 3 within the city of Calgary; more than than you are considered a kennel or breeder. Neither of which, as I understand it are allowed in the city limits.
As to those who say ownership doesn't matter, that "X" breed is vicious no matter what; I beg to differ. With working with rescue dogs, they come to us in all different states. Some are so completely shutdown they reject any human contact and can't walk past another animal without attackinig. The vast majority of them can be rehabilitated; I've seen it many, many times.
So just as bad dogs can be turned around into worthy pets; good pets can also be turned into bad (even vicious) dogs.

Sorry but that info is incorrect. they actually interviewed this guy on the news yesterday. It was the great pyrenese who circled and bit his pitbull, allegedly. Course that is what he said, and i'd believe the girls before i would believe him.
Unless they start legalizing dog fighting there is NO need to have this breed around. Sure they can seem rehabilitated but then if it snaps it's pretty damn hard to control.
