  Deputy shoots pit bull, rottweiler during goat attack web posted July 31, 2007 COUNTY LINE – An Edgefield Road woman called the Sheriff’s Office to report two dogs attacking goats just after 7 am Saturday morning. When the deputy arrived he observed two dogs attacking a goat that was chained to a post. Both dogs were reported as “chewing” on each side of the goat’s neck and head. Four other goats lay dead in the yard. The deputy drew his pistol and tried to command the dogs to retreat in an effort to stop the attack and in the end had to shoot both dogs, killing one. The dead dog appeared to be a white pit bull with tan spots. The second dog, which was wounded, was reported as a black and brown rottweiler. It ran from the scene as was unable to be located. The deputy was unable to locate the owner of the dogs after meeting with the owner of the goats. The case has been turned over to the Animal Control Officer for further investigation. The value of the goats was not listed on police reports. For
