Dog drags youngster off His bike - His Pal comes to the resuce

[geographically*challenged]

We used to get dogs biting us when we did newspaper round.

One particular dog came running up to me.

I put my foot out and as dog crashed into my foot I raised my leg and booted it away.

It never bothered me again.,

I wonder why 😉

If a Dog can inflict those sort of wounds, on that child, in what couldn't have been more than a mere 5 seconds, you can only imagine what sort of death was inflicted on those poor people; killed by dogs in attacks lasting 5 or 10 minutes. I hope the Dog was put down, I've had Dogs for most of My life and that Dogs body language; indicated to me it would do it again. Inside a House, where the space is confined, one should never leave Dogs and Children alone in the same room. However, if a Child can't play in their own Garden ( front or back ) without being attacked by neighbours animals; then it's a poor state of affairs.

Well done the cat!

I don't doubt the attack on the child by the dog but as it was so quick I wonder if those wounds belong to that child? The child looked very slim and got up very quickly.  That picture of the stomach wound looks more like an adult stomach to me but of course either way it's certainly not good.

Stomach? You've got that wrong?

Take a proper look:-

This thing has gone viral over here on our side of the pond!  Apparently it happened in Bakersfield, California, a town north of Los Angeles.  The family and cat have been interviewed on television.   They have televised the stitches and damage to the little boy.   According to some web sites, local authorities state that the animal will be put down.

There is much speculation about possible criminal or legal actions, but I have not heard anything on that subject.  The cat adopted the family about five years ago, and loves the little boy.  God bless them both!

Another good animal story

one of the most 'Popular' Bull fights of the Year at Madrids top Bullring
, was slightly different this year

Fight one, as the Matador was ready to inflict the killer strike (after it had been hurt and tired out to near exhaustion of course), the Bull got a new spurt of life and got it's own back, one of Spains leading  Matadors was severely hurt

BULLS 1 - Matadors 0

Fight two,  This time the new Bull decided He would take action early, and as soon as it was only Him and the Major Matador going Head to head. He struck , badly goring the Matador

BULLS 2 - Matadors 0

Fight three,  The Bull didn't wait this time, instead He caught the Matador as soon as He came out into the ring and gored him

BULLS 3 - Matadors 0

Match called off early and the further fights cancelled

BULLS WIN

Sounds good but what is the final outcome for the bull?

[al**bear]

1st & 2nd Bulls were killed, the other survived -- Sam

this is the video thats gone from up there ^^^

[saasher2012]

A bit of a hollow victory for the Bulls then, perhaps this might make them rethink about this so called sport, but I doubt it!.
