An unprovoked and horrifying attack occurred when a woman’s dog abruptly chewed off her nose. After being attacked at home, 31-year-old Shayna Crimo “screamed bloody murder” for her spouse to call the police.
King, Shayna’s 11-year-old companion dog, had never acted aggressively before, and the event happened just minutes after she had returned from an art lesson. She still lives with King even though she lost the majority of her nose and had to have several forehead flap surgery to rebuild the area.
This terrible incident occurred on January 18, just a few days before another terrible event: two days after her initial surgery, her nearly 13-year-old pit bull Krieo was scheduled to be put down due to cancer. “These dogs literally grew up with me,” Shayna remarked, describing her relationship with her dogs. According to the Mirror, “I’ve had them for more than ten years… they are my children essentially.”
“Should I put King down? Not at all f*g. I would prefer that he spend the rest of his life at home, never leaving the house, never needing a babysitter, and simply being extra cautious, but that is not an option.”
“As soon as I went to give him a hug and a kiss, he bit me immediately,” the loving pet owner from Nevada, USA, continued. He didn’t make any noises, he didn’t back up, there was no snarl, and there was no warning. It went by so quickly.
“I recall the terrible feeling of being shaken, after which I rushed into the toilet, saw how I looked, and yelled bloody murder to get [her boyfriend] to dial 911. Since I’ve respected King’s boundaries for nearly 11 years, I know he doesn’t want to be bothered at night, which is why this has never happened.
He was sitting up at the edge of the bed, not lying down. He’s sitting there like that, very alert, and has never displayed any violent behaviour or warning indications.”
Shayna has found the dilemma especially emotional, but she is still thinking about putting King down. To assist gather money for the several surgeries she will require to recuperate from the attack, she has created a GoFundMe page.
“I just can’t believe how extreme it all is,” the fundraiser stated. My heart is completely broken. I’ll have to pay for the euthanasia, have several operations (I’ve just had the first one so far), lose months of work, and, let’s be honest, get some serious treatment.
I feel so powerless for myself right now. “For me and my loved ones, this will be a very lengthy trip. Anything will be greatly appreciated and helpful. Of all, my heart needs the most repair. Please offer up prayers.
