Last night as Dallas, my 4 year old Shih Tzu, and I were going for a walk on his leash, we were quickly approached by a big unleashed dog. As soon as he towered over my little Shih Tzu, something didn't feel right. I immediately felt uneasy, and afraid to move Dallas and continue walking, in fear this dog would attack, I froze. I stayed still, and before I knew it, the German Shepherd lunged at Dallas and had him in his mouth, flinging him side to side, and up in the air. All I could do was try and pull Dallas to safety, badly cutting my fingers on the leash in the process, afraid to fight more as the dog was vicious and I was terrified for my own life. I kept yelling for help and screaming that he was killing my dog.
The dog's owner jumped on her dog, trying to free Dallas but it didn't work. Dallas was finally able to get free, but before I could scoop him up, being too powerful for his owner, the other dog leaped on Dallas and had him again, ripping into him a second time. I was screaming for his life. Once the owner was finally able to free Dallas I drove him to after hours emergency wrapped in a towel. He was in critical condition and remains in critical condition with several puncture wounds to his body. His cavity wall has been separated from his body, he has fractured ribs and oxygen filling up in his body tissue, yet he is still fighting to survive.
Today I made the difficult decision to transport Dallas 10 min to a specialist surgery practice so he can be operated. The cost of the surgery is approximately $4000 plus the other costs that were incurred by his emergency care last night and the day care he had.
The owner of the dog even offered to help as much as they can, but they are an unemployed person, barely making ends meet. I need to raise approximately $2000 ASAP, to make this surgery happen for Dallas. I am still paying the current bills and this has all been such a mess. It really breaks my heart to see Dallas like this or when I think about the horrific moments of the accident. I absolutely appreciate your attention and if you are able to, please help me save my boy. Thank you.
