My dog got attacked by a big St. Bernard today. This was at a park and the other dog dragged his owner(s) by the leash and attacked. My wife was trying to fight him off and these two dog "trainers" also helped. I was not there but was told the owners basically did nothing, which really pisses me off. My wife thought our dog was OK and just went home...no contact info. I found a little hole on her back and immediately took her to an animal hospital. They in turn found a much larger puncture wound on her side and got her patched up. No major injuries, fortunately. Am out $760 on this but I don't think the owners could be held liable anyway, since their dog was leashed.
Now the dog is at home and looking miserable. I think she's actually just sulking because she has gauze and bandages and doesn't like them. Wouldn't eat her food and I couldn't even get her to pee for hours, but she finally just went. Called the hospital and they said she should probably start feeling like her old self again by tomorrow afternoon. If it is the bandages causing the behavior, then it's just one more day of sulking because they can come off on Tuesday. Then next week the stitches can come out.
I hate seeing the dog like this because she's always this little happy energy fireball and it pisses me off that some assholes can't control their own pets. WTF were they even doing trying to train an aggressive dog for in the middle of a fucking park, anyway? Assholes.
