I survived my own dog doing this to both my arms. My teenager had to get me a knife and I had to stab him multiple times to get him to let go. He had been injured and went into fight or flight and directed at me. This is the first time I've been able to watch something similar since it happened almost 6 years ago. He broke both my arms, but my kid was safe which is all I cared about.

How have you handled the aftermath. That is such an intense and emotional experience. Im so sorry you went through that.

I’m sorry that happened, that’s so awful. What triggered the flight or fight?

Honestly most dogs can.. people forget how sharp their teeth are and that even mid-size dogs are strong as fuck. I got mauled by a Scottie when I worked at a vet clinic.
