Earlier this year I posted here about a neighbor's dog that had been getting out of its yard and attacking other dogs. Then, the people were given a warning by animal control and given a good talking to by our local police.
Yesterday the dog (a Korean fighting dog, a Gindo) walked right out of their open gate and attacked our other neighbor's dog.
My neighbor had just gone out for a minute to walk her older yellow lab. The yellow lab is seriously injured. In her efforts to protect her dog she fell and broke her right wrist.
These neighbors have a brand new baby, and now the woman cannot even hold her own child. Her dog is seriously injured and was having surgery yesterday afternoon.
Her husband was beside himself. His wife is a writer and cannot write, they will need day care for assistance with the baby, and their dog is having expensive surgery. The owners of the Gindo will now have a law suit on their hands because this is the fourth attack in our neighborhood by their dog.
The Gindo owners had kept him chained up for a while in their back yard, but became lax - and here is the result.
It is a sad comment on dog ownership and lack of responsibility.
Many Koreans have Gindos and they are not pets, but kept in their yards as guard dogs.
And who guards us as we walk our dogs?

And in the end, the dog will get it. The owners will get off with a slap on the wrist and a fine.
