A family from Colorado was involved in an accident in mid-November. Their pets went for a walk in the yard when they were suddenly attacked by a lion. The animal snatched up an elderly dog, evidently thinking it would be easy prey. But she didn’t know who she’d have to deal with just yet.
With a loud bark, the short-legged dog leaped at the mountain lion, attempting to repel his friend. He chased after the cat until she flung the dog and fled. «Mijo’s best pal is Winston. And I’m not surprised that Winston came to his aid when he yelled,» Sarah said of the incident.
A big and gentle heart beats in the breast of a little dog, according to the owner.
This is a real buddy who is always willing to assist others who are in need. The dogs were brought to a veterinary clinic after the attack.
Winston was unharmed, but Mijo was severely hurt. His right eye could not be saved, and it had to be removed. In addition, the dog suffered a stroke in the middle of the night.
Doctors believe the mountain lion’s sharp teeth may have damaged the dog’s nerve, necessitating a lengthy and costly treatment.Sarah and Lindsey were unprepared for the cost and turned to the GoFundMe crowdfunding platform for assistance. They intend to use all of the money to treat and rehabilitate the animal.
