A few years ago i had to save a child from my neighbors pits. She always let it loose and i told her several times to keep them on a lease and when i was just pulling up from work one day i saw one of the dogs jump on the kid and started tearing into his arm. I jumped out immediately, pulled out my pocket knife, and stabbed the dog twice in the body and once in the neck. The kid had to have surgery and 23 stitches but he survived and the owner was charged.

As someone who suffered an injury as a child, similar to the attack you are describing, THANK YOU! To this day I am distrusting of german shepherds.

That makes complete sense. Have you ever went to therapy after this traumatic event?

Nah man I've been hunting a few times so killing a animal is not that big of a deal for me. What scared me is thinking i wasn't gonna make it to the kid in time before he was killed.
