Saturday November 5th Amara was attacked by a pit bull. The dog came out of nowhere. She has a cut in her mouth and she cannot walk on her left front paw. She has a bite mark on her chest where her front paw and her leg are together. The dog sniffed her at first and proceeded to clamp down on her throat. I was screaming histerically for the female pit not to hurt her. But the dog didn't care. The dog was snapping and snarling while clamped down on my little baby. I summoned up my courage and charged the dog and shoved her off of Amara. Amara ran away and the dog went after her again. I shoved the dog again and gathered Amara up into my arms. I ran back into my aunts house and told them what happened. Because of my screaming they came to the door. I was in shock. I walked to get Amara's crate to lay her down in and clean her bites and scratches. I called the police and they came and they found the dogs owner. I was in Abbeville when all of this happened. I am now back in Greenville. Amara's arm is hurt and she cannot walk on it. The police told me to watch her closely or take her to the vet. My mom says we're taking her to get checked out. I have been hand feeding Amara and taking her outside to potty with extreme caution. I am now more aware of my surroundings. Somewhat I feel this is my fault. Completely my fault. If only I had been more aware.
My baby would not be hurt.
