That could have been even worse: A 34-year-old dog owner from Hohenzell (Upper Austria) was walking with her two small children – six and two years old – on Thursday when her American Akita panicked and bit his owner several times. the arms and legs.
Just two hours after the fatal dog attack that killed a jogger in Naarn was heard in court, another four-legged friend in Upper Austria went completely out of control: an American Akita bit its own owner (34) several times in the arms and legs. The 34-year-old from Hohenzell had to receive emergency medical care and then be taken to the hospital in Ried.
Fortunately, the owner’s two small children were unharmed. The woman was walking with them – her son (6) and her daughter (2) – in a forest on Thursday afternoon when she met a 56-year-old woman with her two dogs – a Labrador and a mixed breed.
Immobilized by the vet
As the four-legged friends passed each other, police say the 34-year-old had to hold her dog back, was knocked over and ultimately bitten by her American Akita. The injured man still managed to keep her dog on a leash.
The other dog owner protected the two children and alerted emergency services. While the rescue team and the emergency doctor treated the bite wounds, the police canine unit took care of the aggressive animal: the officers had to restrain it with arrest bars until the vet arrived and immobilized the four-legged friend with a sedative injection.
