Worse. Afternoon. Ever.

So I was enjoying my afternoon earlier with my family.
My cousins were on their way out the door when they
saw a dog outside near my dog.
We've had incidents like this before with other dogs, but
this was no ordinary dog. This was a huge, full grown, aggressive,
Pitt bull. I know not all of them are like that, my cousin has one
on the other side of the yard that is sweet as can be. She and my dog
get on well to be exact. But this was no friendly dog.
He was literally attacking my dog Rústico, a 4 month old Basset hound mixed
with a Miniature lab. So from that you already know he is tiny, and low
to the ground. I mean, that's like Yao Ming v.s. a 6 year old! And the only reason why
I leave him out and not in his cage is because it is terribly hot!
But anyway, my little baby was being mauled by this huge animal while it's
owner, a boy about 14 years old stood watching, in shock while my family
did everything to stop it. Although I do understand. He was little and that
dog was huge, we think he was afraid of it, and he did apologize.
But I had to be the one to take action... I literally had to put the dog in a hold and
carry him away from my puppy, being bit in the process. But at least the owner
had time to get it under control and take it away. My little Rústy was shaken sooo bad, I think I scared him when I went to check on him. After I calmed him down I tried to spray him down to see if he had any deep cuts when all of a sudden... That damn dog had returned again!
I already had taken care of it before, so I was ready to do it again if I had to.
Lucky I didn't. I scooped my little doggy up and fended the dog off as long as I could until my
grandmother unhooked the chain and I could get him to the house.
We had to call the police, animal control, the whole 9 yards because I was bit.
All for trying to take care of my boy! Now we have to take him to the vet and
get him taken care of, but other than that he is fine and is back to normal.
My cousin's dog was sooo upset about it! She and Rústy are buddies I guess
so she was upset to see that dog hurting him! You know, until tonight, I never realized how much I love that little dog. It sounds cheesy, but it's true. I always talk about how he annoys me but
I was hell-bent on protecting him, no matter what it took!
That's why I haven't updated my blog today :P
