Judgment of dog bite – “Dad helps me, the Rottweiler runs on”

The ten -year -old daughter is said to have played with the dog every day and left. “My daughter is only ten years old, but she had the” Ernie “under control because she weighs a good 70 kilos and is 1.75 meters long,” said the accused father (48), who himself is a huge man.

Seven -Enth -old seriously injured
What happened? The two -year -old Rottweiler -Teef was suddenly turned around while playing with the daughter of the owner (10) in the garden of the Domestic Farm in Kirchberg OB der Donau (Upper Austria) and had bitten the seven -year -old adjacent daughter several times. This suffering serious injuries in the area of ​​the shoulder. She had to be flown to the hospital and operated on the helicopter in Linz.

Above average size does not matter
On Wednesday, the 48-year-old taxi driver had to reply to a grossly negligent serious attack. He should never have left the animal alone with his daughter. “She can also be two meters long, at the age of ten she can’t even ride her bike alone,” the public prosecutor emphasized. The only good thing is that the seven -year -old did not died, which could have happened easily. “Moreover, where the dog has already bitten, that is what common sense tells you!”

Photos of the flesh wounds shown
On the photos of the terrible injuries, even the media representatives present differed differently – the flesh wounds look just as deep and dangerous on the body of the little girl.

Animal defended
“We took over the” Ernie “from a family where the father had just died. The mother was overwhelmed with five children and dogs on time and wanted to give up the dog,” said the owner, who also has other dogs on the farm. “Of course I knew she had already bitten, but that was not malignant, but the fault of another lady who took” Ernie “for us. “Ernie” was great with my daughter from the start, obeyed her and was aimed at her, “the taxi driver, whose wife belongs to the local farm.

Daughter (10) was also injured
His daughter called him during the bite attack and shouted: “Dad helps me, who comes through” Ernie “. The chairman, on the other hand, remains: “When you interrupted a week after the accident, you said:” De Ernie brings me up “, but the 48-year-old says. The daughter was also injured and suffered a flash in meat and smaller bite wounds.

Jacket broken down, blood ran down
When the accused got out, the bitch had already sat next to his daughter. The seven -year -old victim passed him and entered the house. “I had no idea what was going on. I only saw the drawn jacket and that blood ran on her shoulder,” the completely famous father describes the shock moment. They immediately called the salvation and waited for the helicopter.

“Was a dear animal”
Despite everything, the 48-year-old from Kirchberg defends the animal in court: “The” Ernie “was a dear animal, it never meant bad. She had a broken tooth in her mouth that was sharp as a knife. As a result, she was immediately wounded so hard. My daughter misses her very much and the neighboring girl always as she came back in the order of the authority.

Five months of imprisonment
The verdict was quickly made: although the indictment claimed an unconditional prison for general preventive reasons, the chairman decided five months for the confession and innocence of the father of the family and a fine of 960 euros.

Agreed with parents
Also because the council had the impression that the owner of the terrible incident had learned: “It still charges me. It tears me every time my daughter calls. Since then only my wife and I go out with the dogs, no one else, “said the 48-year-old. The parents of the injured girl and neighbors of the family withdrew their private participants because they wanted to agree outside the court. The judgment is final.
