| Tough situation. The woman claims the dog attacked another dog (presumably, the visiting dog attacked one of her own dogs...) and she fought the visiting dog off. Doesn't seem reasonable that the woman, who the couple felt comfortable leaving their dog with, beat the dog without provocation.

| The fact is though that this woman has no broken skin. If a dog that size is going to attack, it's going to break skin.

| If I was being beaten with a pole, I would certainly wait until the woman was weapon free to attack! How rude of her to take these peoples dog who has already been deemed an unagressive pet. Too bad he didnt pite her harder..if she had bites all the way to the bone then the court photos should have relfected that!

| I signed the petition and shared the article on Facebook. I hope they save this dog and get him in the rehab program and he is allowed to serve his veteran for the rest of his life.
