Close call for puppy..

Here is the story. (http://baynews9.com/content/36/2006/5/30/161475.html)

Living in FL this is a real scary thing. Luckily I don't live near any water that my dogs would want to go near but if I did I would not let them near the water. They warn us here to not walk your pets or even yourself near the water during feeding hours or during mating season. I'm happy though this guy was able to get his pup out of the gator's mouth. Poor pup was probably terrified as was the guy.

Oh my!!! Poor puppy!! I dont live in Florida, but my SIL does and she has told me some crazy stories. They do not walk their dogs near any water. They do however have the occasional wanderer in their yard, so they have to be very careful!! just 2 weeks ago my SIL's shepard mix, Princess was bitten by a rattlesnake!! she is okay now thanks to Anti-Venom. But they have had gators just outside their backyard fence before tho. Just a risk you take by living in an area like that.:(
