She was ready to stab the dogs, and I don't blame her. Pit bulls are the niggers of the dog world.

But Kathy Suggs, the owner of the pit bulls, said Duran didn't have to kill her year-old dogs, Angel and JoJo.

"She's just here stabbing like a wild, mad lady," Suggs said. "I can't even reach in to get the dog because she's swinging the knife."

Suggs acknowledged that her pit bulls got loose through an open garage, but she believes Duran overreacted.

"This lady was walking around, I think, with the intent to kill the dog," Suggs said. "Who walks around with a butcher knife? We all walk our dogs around here."

Duran's dog suffered bite wounds to the back.

Sheriffs deputies and animal control officers questioned the women and allowed Duran to keep her knife because she was acting in self defense.

Suggs was fined $200 for having loose dogs.
