5 Year Old Injured in Dog Attack, Owner Sought by Wood Buffalo RCMP

A 5 year old girl was injured in a dog attack and the Wood Buffalo RCMP are trying to track down the owner of the dog or anyone who witnessed the attack last Tuesday. The child was riding her bike in the area close to Rattlepan Creek Drive in Timberlea. The girl was on the sidewalk at around 9:15 pm when she encountered two adult females who were walking with a dog that was on a leash. The dog attacked the 5 year old, biting her before the attack stopped. When the girl went home her parents took her to the hospital where she was treated for the injuries she suffered during the attack from the dog before being released. The incident was reported to the local police.

The Wood Buffalo RCMP is investigating the dog attack and is asking the public for help in identifying the dog, the owner, and the two adult females who were walking the dog that evening. According to the report the dog involved is an orange and white dog and is a bulldog breed. The adult female who was walking the dog with a leash is described as a blonde woman, and she was wearing black pants and a blue shirt on the evening the incident occurred. Animal Control is assisting the Woof Buffalo RCMP with the investigation, and both organizations are asking for the dog’s owner to come forward or for anyone else who has any information to contact the police. Hopefully the 5 year old will fully recover, both physically and mentally.

Dog Attack Results in Unusual Texas Lawsuit, Owner of Dogs Responsible Suing the Family Whose Dog was Attacked and Died in Their Yard

An unusual Texas lawsuit has many people scratching their heads in confusions, and others who can not believe the gall of the woman who is bringing the lawsuit over a dog attack. Emerald White is the plaintiff in the dog attack lawsuit, and she freely admits that her 4 dogs went onto her neighbors property and killed the 10 year old beagle that the neighbors owned, yet she is suing the family whose dog was attacked and killed by her dogs. This is the kind of mixed up logic that American courts see on a regular basis, and even more surprising is that an attorney agreed to take the case. White owns 3 pit bulls and a pit bull mix dog, for a total of 4 dogs.

In the unusual Texas lawsuit over a dog attack Emerald White does not deny that her dogs went into the neighbors yard, or that they killed the family’s 10 year old beagle. White is claiming that the beagle attacked her, and her dogs killed the animal in order to protect her. The owner of the beagle, the Baker family, are named as the defendants. It was not enough that White allowed her animals to leave her yard and go into the neighboring property, and that the animals killed the beloved pet of the Baker family, Emerald believes the family should have to pay her for mental anguish, disfigurement, pain, loss of earnings, and a fear of future disease. Most states in the United States have dog control laws, and by her own admission White’s 4 dogs were on the neighbors property when the dog attack occurred.
