COSHOCTON, Ohio - A 35-year-old Coshocton woman died Saturday night at Grant Medical Center after suffering injuries from a dog attack, according to our media partners at the Coshocton Tribune.

Rachael Honabarger was attacked by a family pet Tuesday at her home.

A neighbor stopped to pull the German Shepherd off her, and called 911.

According to Coshocton County Dog Warden Russell Dreher, it’s unclear what will happen to the dog.

Man bites dog to save wife from brutal attack
20 hrs ago
They say "man bites dog" is the best story in journalism, but there was nothing good about a vicious dog attack thwarted only by one Iowan’s desperate jaws. Caren Henry of Grimes, Iowa, was brutally attacked by a 50-pound Labrador retriever mix in an assault so violent, it ripped her nose off. Husband Laine also suffered bites, but stopped the attack by biting the dog’s own nose. Caren needs multiple surgeries to rebuild her face, but the dog could walk away scot-free. The Iowa county where the incident occurred lacks a vicious-dog ordinance to put down the animal. So it’s possible that after time in quarantine, the dog could be released to its owner.

It's weird how brutal and deadly attacks by other breeds don't get the airtime that pits do.

Oh, and Rotts:

KAPAA (HawaiiNewsNow) - An 8-year-old Kauai boy remains hospitalized two days after he was mauled by a neighbor's dog. According to the child's family, it's not the first time the rottweiler has attacked someone.

Jeremiah Dela Cruz is recovering after a terrifying attack. He was bicycling to his home on Makana Road in Kapaa with two friends at about 5:30 p.m. on Thursday.

"A 110-pound rottweiler came over the fence and attacked him, pulling him from the bike and continuing to attack him," said Jeremiah's grandfather Roger Walraven.

A neighbor heard Jeremiah screaming in pain.

"He saved my grandson's life, taking the boy's bike and beating the dog off my grandson and then putting the bike between him and the attacking dog," said Walraven.
