Re: Texas Boy, 7, Fatally Mauled By 2 Pit Bulls

A good friend of the family (who is in her 50's) was recently attacked by a Rottweiler. They were pulling up to some friend's house and as she got out of the car and walked to the house, the dog got out of the fence and attacked her. The owners wife was shocked and basically paralyzed with fear while watching from the porch. The husband got off the riding mower and ran over subduing the dog. Our friend was rushed to the hospital bleeding profusely and had to remain in ICU for several days. She received serious injuries to the arms neck and face. She will have to undergo cosmetic surgery to repair a lot of the damage and will likley lose partial use of one of her arms.
The owner of the dog did the right thing and shot the animal minutes after the attack.
It is a very sad situation to say the least.
