Tell us about the attack

I took my Yorkie, Paddlefoot, out to potty. Next thing, I know I’m on the ground and my baby is being ripped to pieces by a pit bull. I tried lying on top of my dog to use my own body as a shield to save him from the pit bull but it was too late.

The pit bull also bit me several times.

I will never stop seeing the attack in my mind.

How has your life changed as a result of the attack?
