Watch out for white pit bull type dog
On Thursday evening I was at the soccer grounds with my small white spoodle who went up to touch noses with a white pit bull type dog being held on a leash by man who also had a black dog on a leash. Without even a warning growl the white dog attacked my little guy, going in for the kill. When the white dog was pulled off, my dog was shivering in terror with bleeding wounds in throat, shoulder, neck, and groin. After three vet visits my bills are up to $650 which being on a pension with no savings has put me in a very difficult situation and my dog can barely drag himself around although he is on the mend finally. Do not go near this dog. The owner was shocked, said the dog had never done it before, and followed up with enquiry, but I do not have his name and have lost the neighbour's phone number he gave me. If you recognise the description I would much appreciate a name so that I may follow up.
