Lady was nearly attacked by a loose dog a couple of years ago. My neighbor was dog sitting and her four year old let the dog out. It came up behind us so I didn't realize it was there until it was almost on Lady. I dove and saved her, thank heavens, but fractured my pelvis in the process.
From now on, I carry doggie mace (called Muzzle) with me. I never, ever want to be in that situation again. All it takes is one shake of a toy dog's neck by a larger dog to break it. I will "shoot first and ask questions later". |
