A man who came to the defence of XL Bullies on Facebook and urged people to \u2018stop blaming the wrong end of the leash\u2019 has now been attacked by one of the dogs himself.<\/p>\n

<\/div>\n

Ben C\u017ay\u017cyk, 38, from Wolverhampton, was left with puncture wounds and bruising to his face after the incident on Friday night. He shared his experience with this FB status, alongside a bunch of pictures of his injuries\u2026<\/p>\n

In fairness to Ben, the dog did attack him under instruction from its owner, which kind of supports his philosophy that it\u2019s irresponsible dog owners are the problem. Then again, he did ask the owner to put the XL Bully on a leash, so maybe it would have attacked him anyway?<\/p>\n

Either way, what an absolute sc*mbag this guy is to not only set his dog on Ben for no reason, but to join in on the beatdown as well.<\/p>\n

The thug and his dog managed to flee the area before police got there, and Ben was left with 12 fractures to his eye socket and multiple puncture wounds around his ankles. The scariest part of course is that it could have been a whole lot worse.<\/p>\n

Just nine days before he was attacked, Ben had uploaded a post to Facebook featuring a picture of an XL Bully, saying:<\/p>\n

\n

\u2018Any breed can be taught to be aggressive. It\u2019s time we quit blaming the wrong end of the leash.\u2019<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Has Ben changed his stance on XL Bullies since being attacked? Well, according to a relative he is \u2018still recovering and isn\u2019t up to talking about it in full at the moment\u2019, but the relative said on his behalf:<\/p>\n

\n

\u00a0\u2018We still don\u2019t think they should be banned, they need to be registered and looked after properly.\u00a0 These dogs shouldn\u2019t be used as weapons and that\u2019s what this user was using his as \u2013 a weapon.\u2019<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

West Midlands Police confirmed they are investigating the attack. A spokesperson said:<\/p>\n

\n

\u2018Officers attended and found a man in his 30s with injuries to his face and leg.\u00a0 Thankfully they are not believed to be life-changing. We are continuing with house-to-house inquiries and reviewing CCTV and doorbell footage from the area as part of our on-going investigation.\u2019<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Let\u2019s hope they find this absolute wrong \u2018un and his dog sooner rather than later. Get well soon, Ben!<\/p>\n
