"Attacked", Put In Harms Way
Geez, I feel like I'm venting a lot lately. <br>And again this one is about work.<br><br>Today I was "attacked" but more like put in harms way because of a man's accident.<br>He didn't close a kennel all of the way, and Lyla (a cocker spaniel) got out.<br>The problem was that Bruiser (a boxer mix) was out as well, and he is extremely dog aggressive. <br>Bruiser attacked Lyla and I was the only employee back there and ended up in the middle of the mess.<br>I have countless scratches and a few puncture wounds from where I was bit.<br>If I didn't get in there Lyla would be dead. <br>Bruiser has to go for a temperment assessment tonight because of the attack.<br>I spent 2 hours in UrgentCare getting all cleaned up.<br>I wasn't scared honestly, I've been bit plenty of times, but this incident did shake me up a bit. <br>The scratches are pretty bad, and I've got bruises all over my arms and the punctures on my upper arm and hands. <br><br>I know it was just an accident, but I felt that if he were more careful, I wouldn't have been put in harms way.<br>I'm fine, my injures will recover. Doctor said I was lucky he didn't get a hold of my wrist because he would've broken my hand where he bit.<br><br>Obviously, Bruiser will probably be flagged as dangerous and put down.
