Beverly Hills Cop actress Heather Parkhurst had to be hospitalized this week, after being mauled by her pitbulls, and the situation has social media users taking sides. According to TMZ, Parkhurst’s fiance Mark Nason said that, on Friday night, Parkhurst was petting their 7-month-old pitbull, when their 8-year-old pitbull appeared to get jealous and started growling. The dogs lunged to attack one another, but Parkhurst’s arm was caught in the fight, causing her to suffer some violent injuries. Doctors stitched her up, and inserted some pins, but as of Tuesday she remained hospitalized.
New of the mauling has divided social media users, as some sympathize with Parkhurst, but others have expressed that they do not believe she should ever had the pups to begin with.

They are keeping the frankenmaulers because they love pit bulls. The next attack will be worse. Guaranteed. https://t.co/Ua3QlZjX4U

Pit Bulls are only Good at One Thing. Mauling their Own Owners. Heather Elizabeth Parkhurst.

Pitbulls arenโt even aggressive towards humans. So I wonder what she did ๐ค

These breed of dogs should strictly be security dogs…making them pets is quite risky

The breed should be sterilized! Nothing good ever comes from owning a pit bull! Some owners maintain theyโre an excellent breed yet no other dog commits murders. SMH ๐คฆโโ๏ธ

I donโt know why people insist on having that particular breed dog!! A six year old was mauled to death by a pit bull here in Michigan just a few months ago. SMH

There must some underlying medical issue if theyโve never done this before because dogs can sense these things

For people who don’t read the article: She got her arm caught between her two pitbulls that were fighting each other. They were not trying to kill her. Poor girl was just in the middle.

I get that your a big pit bull advocate but if Iโm attacked I sure as hell wouldnโt keep the dog. Regardless if she jumped in the middle of the dogs fight. If her dog was trained well enough it should have stopped once she opened her mouth. Next time she may not be so lucky..

Apparently they are also advocates for not having arms.
