Yorkie Yakker | Attack My younger sister and I were walking our three dogs. I was walking my little Yorkie(Max), and my sisters' chihuahua(Xouzie). My younger sister was walking our mixed poodle(Cherry). On our walk we passed by a fenced house, with a pitbull and another large dog inside. When the large dogs noticed us they quickly went through under the fence and attacked us. I quickly picked up both of the dogs I had and the pitbull was jumping trying to get my puppy. He bit him a couple of times and left an open wound. The pitbull also bit my poodle mix dog. I was soo afraid. I was yelling for help. There was a man that was just watching. I couldn't beleive that he wasn't trying to find a way to help us. The owners finally came out and got their dog. They didn't say they were sorry. I'm still shooken up by this. I only got a few scratches... My mom called animal control. The investigators haven't come yet, but I really dont want to deal with this anymore...

| :O That's negligent on the pit owner's part!!! They may not have apologized to you because they know they did something wrong and apologizing to you would be admitting guilt. I don't wanna get ahead of myself... but I would definitely consider taking legal action. Keep us updated on everyone's condition! I'm really sorry this happened to you and your babies.

| I am so sorry! Are the pups okay? I would definitely have them checked by a vet. Also take pictures for documentation. Poor babies! Glad you and your sister are okay. |

| OMG, I'm so sorry that happened to you & your dogs. I hope your dogs will be ok with the wounds they got from the bites. The owners of those other dogs need........to pay for your vet bills at the very least!!! Please keep us informed about how your dogs are doing.

| Let me first say how sorry I am that your babies were attacked and I do hope they are ok. Next, I would not let those irresponsible people get away with a thing like that. I would call the police and report this and find out what you can do about legal action. Next time, that dog could kill a dog and maybe even a child. Get yourself some protection. Mace or pepper spray. Heck even a tazer.

| I'm so sorry that you had to go through something this horrible. I'm glad everyone is O.K. The owners of those dogs are negligent and should be made to pay for your injuries!! The fact that they didn't say anything shows how much they really care what their dogs do!! I'd call animal control and have them removed from the home, They are dangerous animals!! Then I'd call a Lawyer and sue them for having dangerous dogs!! I wish everyone a speedy recovery and Hugs to all,

| AWFUL I am so sorry you had to go through this and hope your babies are all doing well now and that animal control can do something to help you. Keep us posted on the outcome. It gets me so-o-o-o-o upset when dog owners are dreadfully negligent and irresponsible. I've had a few close calls and am always fearful of something like this happening.

| I am so glad you are all OK. I really hope you follow through. The next victims might not be so lucky. Don't feel bad for turning them in, you could be saving a life.
