"IT'S COMIN' RIGHT FOR US!"
That thing should be muzzled so that the pit bull owners don't feel discriminated against!
July 23, 2004The outcome was that the JR's owner did pay the vet bills and the JR was never seen again.Hi Ann,
We had a shocking afternoon. At 4:30 I was leaving to pick Brian up and Abby [an American Staffordshire Terrier] was with me. On a leash of course! I turned to lock the door and the jack russell that lives next door darted past it's owner and attacked my baby! He had her by the lip and wouldnt let go, Abby was screaming and the owner was beating on his dog and couldn't get him to let go of her lip. Finally after about 4 min. they got him off.
I took Abby directly to the vet, she has a large gash on the inside of her lip and it is really swollen. I was crying so hard I could barely drive the car. They cleaned the cut and gave her antibiotics, they don't want to have to stitch it unless it doesn't start to heal by Sunday. If it is still swollen then they will sedate her and clean it and then stitch it. She also got a shot for pain. I have NEVER in my life seen a dog so vicious!!!! We gave them the vet bill and we are waiting to see what they will do with it. I was hoping you could call me and give us some advise.
Thank you
Susan
