Timon was attacked by 2 big dogs ( boxer and a big strong cross breed) it took 2 of us ladies at the refuge with brooms hitting the dogs and I managed to get Timon away. We actually broke the brooms hitting the dogs so hard, but they would not give up attacking. It was truly terrible.
Timon is a pint sized dog, I can´t say I really ´noticed´ him at the refugio, he was a ´in the background´ type of dog, kept himself to himself. Why the other dogs attacked we do not know, they just pounced and dragged him away.
He has come along really well. he is such a character, he is lovely, I so wish we could keep him, but we bought home a Labrador dog from the refugio the week before, so no way do we have room even for a pint sized dog. He is brilliant, house trained and quiet. I will be sad to have to take him back. He is back to the vet tomorrow, hopefully the wound on his leg can be stitched then, at the moment it is open wide (it was infected, it looks ok now)
You would think after being attacked he wouldbe scared of dogs, especially big dogs, but he isn´t , he tries to play with Charlie the Labrador, but Charlie is so big (and clumsy) he steps on Timon! I dread saying goodbye to him, I hope he can get a forever home soon!
You can see the gaping wound on his back leg, he had puncture wounds all round the back of his neck. He was so shaken after the attack, he was sick 4 times, I bought him straight home with us, he needed to looked after.
