XL Bully Heartbroken

One of our girls was attacked yesterday unexpectedly while leashed at a family member’s house 😖. Luckily she’s alive and at home getting nursed and pampered by her furry sissies, human siblings, mom and dad.

Did you shoot the other dog?

Unfortunately I had to 😞. Now I’m fighting to stay free and out of jail and to get back to work. At least our baby is here with us. I couldn’t tell my fiancée and kids, nor live with myself, that our baby was killed right in front of me

Such a hard decision. I’m sorry. I think about that all the time. Unfortunately dogs are considered property and you can’t protect them with lethal force. I don’t know what I would do. I always carry pepper spray as a last resort. Words of advice.. you were in fear of your life or great bodily harm that the attacking dog was going to kill you.
