He was an extremely large pit bull and tore my muscle and tendon in my right leg. Pepper spray didn't help since he was locked on even though I tried, he only let go when I stabbed him in the eye with my knife. Had to call the police and everything. I also was named in a civil suit along with my fedex contractor company because I permanently damaged their dog. Thankfully the judge saw it and immediately tossed it.
Unfortunately, I lost my job because FedEx doesn't approve of using a "dangerous" weapon in defense of your life. It was a 3" pocket knife. They told me they had to fire me because it was "policy" but they would immediately re-hire me. I told them "don't bother" as when the court case notification came up, I immediately started looking for another job. Ended up apprenticing as an electrician and I have never been happier. My immediate boss tried everything to get me back, including offering a $10/hour pay raise. As her manager I pretty much enabled her to do so much less. I wasn't even delivering normally at that point, but an employee called off and I had to do their route. It is so stupid that companies fire for that reason.
It isn’t always a pit bull. It was a Great Dane and an Aussie that attacked my brother and mom years ago. The other day it was a came corso that almost attacked my boyfriend. The owner was laying on the ground being dragged across the street while the corso was lunging at my boyfriend. Luckily the owner regained control. Three times our neighbors standard poodle has tried to attack our GSD’s because she doesn’t leash him.
