My 30 pound dog was attacked by three unleashed pit bulls

152. My 20lb dashchund mix

was similarly attacked by the next door neighbors pit about 14 months ago. We rushed her to the Vet with her neck literally hanging. All the vets in the building left their patients to help save her. They had to sew her tongue back among other things. They still call her their little Miracle. I'm getting chills/tears just thinking about it.

I truthfully considered killing those dogs. But, now they are kept inside.

The same neighbor had another pair of pits when we first moved here about 25years ago. They came into my yard and attacked my 6 month old puppy. I saw them hanging from either side of my puppy's throat. But, my puppy was a six month old Alaskan Malamute/Wolf mix who was at or near 100lbs at the time. He was scared to death and fought back defensively. As I was running towards them (shovel in hand) along with my other Malamute, the owner was running into our yard. The owner managed to get them away as they really couldn't get a grip through the Malamute fur.
I checked my pup from head to toe as he was covered with blood. But, he did not have a scratch on him. His size and breed probably saved his life.

Those dogs disappeared after that attack also. I don't know if he got rid of them or if he started keeping them indoors.
