 Yet another little one attacked and killed
I feel so bad for my neighbor. She had two gorgeous well groomed loved Pomeranians that she walked every morning. My other neighbor across the street had two huge male dogs. They always let them run so we gave them a gate, leash and collars for them and TOLD them to use them. Actually, where we live does not allow dogs over 20 pounds but the owner will let you have them if they are taken care of.
About 9 days ago, the Pom lady was walking her dogs by my house and one of the big dogs attacked one of the little dogs. After 9 days at the vet, she finally had to put the Pom to sleep. It was too badly injured to survive. My DH and I are almost always home and I am sure we would have heard the attack but we did not. The owner of the lab mix said he would not pay the vet bills.
It brakes my heart. She loves and cares for her babies as we do. I have never seen dogs as well groomed outside of the show ring. Now, one is gone forever.
The big dogs are gone now. I have always been afraid they would attack my guys (only 2 of my 6 go out on a leash to pee, the other ones use peepee pads). Since other people around here let their dogs run, big and small, we do NOT walk the dogs around here.
My heart breaks for my friend. She is going to sue the owner of the big dog. I told her she could also probably sue the owner of our mobile home park for letting the big dogs live on the property against the rules although I understand her not wanting to do that. She owns her home like us and moving it is very expensive.
Please PRAY for her that her heart will heal. I can't imagine what she has gone through the last 9 days. When I see the idiots across the street, I want to go over and let them have it. My DH won't let me which is probably for the better.
RIP little one.
