So about 3 hours ago my landlords brindle pit bull, Tank wasn’t on his leash and turned the corner and saw Emmet(pictured) and ran after him and grabbed a hold of his neck. I was in such a state of shock! Then I remember something that a friend had told me..”If one of those pit bulls ever attacks your dogs grab their hind legs and lift them up in the air.” So I did what she told me too and guess what…it didn’t work! So then I just started pounding my fists into Tanks’ jaw repeatedly until the mail-lady came running down the street and sprayed mace into his eyes. Then Tank finally let go. Then I immediately checked Emmetts’ neck to make sure that the bleeding would stop. Thankfully, it did. I put some anti-bacterial ointment on his two puncture wounds and made an appointment with the vet for 8am tomorrow morning. Then I cried…ALOT! I cried on the phone to my Mom, I cried on the phone to Francesca, I cried on the phone to the Vet and I cried in person to the neighbors…and of course to Emmett. I then took him to McDonalds for a couple double cheeseburgers because I was just so proud/scared/grateful for him being okay. So the moral of this story…please keep your dogs on a leash!
