A 48-year-old woman says she was left with injuries 'like a shark attack' after her rescue dog turned on her as she handed out treats. Caroline Fisher had just returned home when her dog Metcho turned on her on Thursday ,June 9.
The 5ft6 Karakachan, which weighs 12st 8lb, ripped the back off her right arm and mauled her left leg so badly her tendons were left exposed. A passing neighbour came to her aid and Caroline was rushed to hospital, where she remains awaiting multiple skin and muscle graft operations, reports The Mirror.
Caroline said: “I don’t know what it was, maybe the overstimulation and excitement of seeing me after I came home. He started getting jealous of another one of my dogs sitting on my knee, I went to move the dog and nudge him because I could just see a little look in his eye.
